In June 2022, at the end of 200 miles of Kansas gravel in driving rain and mud, Ivar Slik crossed the Unbound Gravel finish line ahead of Kegan Swenson by one bike length. It was the closest finish in the race's history, and it made Slik the first non-American to win Unbound since the event's founding. He won on a Wilier Rave SLR. Wilier calls Unbound "the Tour de France of gravel," and they built the ID2 — this bike's direct successor — in direct response to that victory and Slik's post-race feedback. The Rave SLR ID2 is what a 118-year-old Italian frame builder does when it turns its full attention to gravel racing: wind tunnel testing, NACA-profiled tubes, 52mm tire clearance, and colors drawn from 1990s rave culture that look nothing like any other gravel bike on the market. The Rival XPLR E1 build puts that frame and fork under SRAM's newest 1×13 wireless groupset at $5,800.

HUS MOD Carbon and 8.9% Less Drag

The Rave SLR ID2 frame is built from Wilier's HUS MOD carbon — High Uniformity Structure Monocoque — reinforced with Liquid Crystal Polymer for added stiffness at critical load paths. The frame weighs approximately 990g and the matched carbon fork comes in at 415g. These are not remarkable numbers in isolation, but they provide the structural foundation for what Wilier spent months optimizing: aerodynamics.

The ID2 went through extensive CFD simulation and physical wind tunnel testing. Wilier modeled the frame, fork, and handlebar as a complete system — not as isolated components — because aerodynamic efficiency at the system level is what produces real-world speed. The result: 8.9% less aerodynamic drag than the previous Rave SLR, translating to 5.3 watts saved at 35 km/h. Over a 70km course at 350W average power, that is 54 seconds. At Unbound distances, the numbers compound further.

The most visible expression of that optimization is the down tube. Rather than a uniform tube shape from head tube to bottom bracket, the Rave SLR ID2's down tube begins narrow at the head tube junction and progressively widens toward the BB — mimicking a NACA airfoil profile that shields water bottles from frontal drag. The fork design takes direct inspiration from Wilier's Supersonica SLR time trial bike, with wide stays that maintain an aerodynamic profile around larger tire volumes. This is a gravel frame engineered the same way a TT bike is engineered: every surface is part of the aero calculation.

Race Geometry and Gravel-Racing Specificity

The ID2 designation — second-generation integrated design — reflects a deliberate decision Wilier made when developing this frame: eliminate the dual-purpose compromise of the original Rave SLR. The first generation was an all-road/gravel crossover. The ID2 is gravel racing, exclusively. There are no front derailleur mounts, no provisions for a double chainring, no accommodation for cargo racks or bikepacking mounts. The frame is built around one use case and optimized for it completely.

Geometry reflects that focus. In a size medium, the stack sits at 561mm and reach at 387mm — proportions that put the rider in a low, stretched, aerodynamically efficient position over the bike. The seat tube angle is 75°, steep enough to drive power through the pedals efficiently and keep the rider's weight forward in the position gravel racing demands. Chainstays measure approximately 421mm in medium — relatively short for a disc gravel frame, contributing to responsive handling and quick acceleration. Tire clearance extends to 52mm, a significant jump from the previous generation's 42mm limit, and the UDH-compatible dropout accepts SRAM's Full Mount derailleur system without a separate hanger.

The Rave SLR ID2 is available in six sizes from XS through XXL, with four colorways that announce themselves loudly: Pixel Green Matte, Glitch Black, Neon Purple, and Byte Cream Matte. The color naming — Pixel, Glitch, Byte — is intentional. Wilier drew inspiration from 1980s and 90s rave culture and underground aesthetics for this bike's identity. In a gravel market saturated with matte grey and understated carbon, the Rave SLR ID2 is unmistakable.

Rival XPLR E1, Vittoria Terreno, and the Alloy Build

The SRAM Rival XPLR AXS E1 is the 2026 generation of SRAM's wireless gravel groupset — "E1" succeeds D1 with the defining upgrade of 13 speeds. The XG-1351 XPLR cassette spans 10–46T, providing a range that handles fast gravel descents and sustained climbs without the mechanical penalties of a front derailleur system. Shifting is wireless: no cables to route, no barrel adjusters to dial, no mechanical interference with the ID2's fully internal routing. The Rival XPLR rear derailleur mounts via Full Mount directly to the UDH dropout — no hanger alignment required after a crash or transport. A 40T single chainring, 170mm crankset, and SRAM Rival hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm Paceline rotors complete the drivetrain.

This build runs the Miche Graff Allroad alloy wheelset with Vittoria Terreno Dry 700×50c tubeless-ready tires — the entry configuration of the Rave SLR ID2 range. The Wilier Filante carbon seatpost and Ritchey/Wilier Stemma S2 alloy bar and stem handle the cockpit, with a Selle San Marco Shortfit 2.0 saddle underneath. Higher-tier builds step up to the F-Bar — Wilier's in-house integrated one-piece carbon monocoque cockpit — and 48mm Miche Graff Aero carbon wheels. This build provides the same frame and fork that Wilier's gravel team races, with a component spec that makes the platform accessible at $5,800. The aerodynamics, the geometry, and the Unbound pedigree are identical at every build level.

Best Book on the Integration of Faith and Learning
Format: Paperback
A problem area in Christian ministry is the area of Christian higher education. As we continue to progress through the 21st century we continue to see the decline of the Christian higher education movement. What was once a strong area in the Christian ministry, Christian higher education is failing. The Bible College movement has been in decline for sometime. Schools are folding without the students or the funds to stay open. Most people are going to secular colleges and universities over Christian schools. One of the major problems with Christian higher education has been the failure to critically interact with the movement and offer an approach to dealing with this decline. David Dockery has helped fill this void with his recent volume, Renewing Minds. Dockery, President of Union University in Jackson, TN, is extremely qualified to write in this capacity. A clear and thoughtful theologian, he has extensive experience in the areas of leading and administrating a Christian higher education institution. Not only has he lead Union University he also serves as chairman of the board of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities. With recommendations from J. I. Packer, R. Albert Mohler, Chuck Colson, and a foreword by Robert P. George of Princeton University, this is a volume that should be seriously considered by all who love Christian education. In Chapter 1, Dockery highlights the problem in America. He writes, "I believe that the integration of faith and learning is the essence of authentic Christian higher education and should be wholeheartedly implemented across the campus and across the curriculum. This was once the goal of almost every college in America. This is no longer the case.... What happened was a loss of an integrated worldview in the academy. There was a failure to see that every discipline and every specialization could be and should be approached from the vantage point of faith, the foundational building block for a Christian worldview" (pp. 5-6). Tracing the history of the departure of American schools into secularism and surveying the kinds of Christian higher education institutions in North America leads to a defense of the system derived from Matthew 22:36-40 and the Great Commandment to love the Lord your God with your mind! The rest of the book explains how to go about obeying the Great Commandment in Christian higher education. Chapter 2 builds on this by explaining from the Scriptures the role of the Christian higher education institution and deals especially with the role of the Church, and therefore the Christian higher education institution in society. Chapter 3 explains the process of shaping a Christian worldview and the impact on this on Christian higher education. Chapter 4 is about reclaiming the Christian intellectual tradition. Dockery writes here after tracing the history of the Christian intellectual tradition "Certainly we all learn apart from the great Christian intellectual tradition, apart from the vantage point of faith. But we cannot connect these things into a unified whole, we cannot fully understand the grand metanarrative; we cannot truly grasp how to explore and engage the issues in history and science, business and health care, apart from this approach to learning. Thus we must seek to sanctify the secular because Jesus Christ has come to earth" (p. 84). Chapter 5 addresses the issues of integrating faith and learning. Chapter 6 addresses the necessary concept of developing a place of belonging and community where scholars, educators, staff, and students live together, share, serve, and learn. Chapter 7 begins to offer practical ways of establishing this grace-filled academic community. Chapter 8 articulates how to develop a theology of Christian higher education. Developing this theology would have positive implications for the academic community and the individual. Chapter 9 serves as the culmination of the book with thinking globally about the future. With the changes in communication we must embrace the new in order to communicate the orthodoxy of the past into a new global world. This means listening as much as talking especially as global Christianity begins to reflect non-Western images, positions, and principles. Christian higher education does not just simply say the West is best but listens to all Christian voices in order to best communicate the timeless truth in new ways. This is then concluded by an extensive bibliography on the integration of faith and learning. Dockery's book fills a great need in the area of Christian higher education. He states the issues and the problems, traces the history of Christian higher education, articulates a biblical defense of the integration of faith and learning as well as a comprehensive theological defense. Not only does he articulate this at an academic level but he does not neglect the spiritual aspect of things, emphasizing not just "smart" Christians but "spiritual" Christians. The movement from "theory" to "practice" in Dockery's book is exceptional. I hardly find anything in it that I would disagree with or anything I wish I say that I did not see in the book. It is an even handed treatment that should be read by those who care about Christian higher education and especially those involved in Christian higher education. May we see a renewal of a close integration of faith and learning on our campuses as we emphasize the great truth that all truth is God's truth. May we raise up godly men and women who are passionate about the truth and about serving Christ in the world around them through the Great Commission. And may those of us involved in Christian higher education lead the way through authentic spirituality grounded in the truth. Highly recommended!

Not much about higher education
Format: Paperback
I gave this book 3 stars not because I think it was bad, but because it didn't really have much to do with higher education. I am a big believer in Christian higher education and the integration of faith and learning, however, if you were to take this book and replace "Christian higher education" with a phrase like "the Christian community" or the "Church family" no one would notice the difference. I do believe in much of what he said but that's because I follow Christ. I didn't expect him to spend chapters on what Christians believe and how they differ from other religions, I was hoping for an intelligent argument and exploration of Christian higher education and how it differs from other higher education. And the argument, higher education used to be all Christian higher education is not a good argument. Once again, not a bad book but just not what I expected based on the description and title.

A Sterling Vision of Christian Education
David Dockery is the president of my alma mater, Union University in Jackson, Tennessee. Therefore, I have always taken great interest in keeping up with what Dockery says and does in the realm of Christian higher education. B&H publishing has done us all a favor by pulling together his ideas into a unified book with the theme - "Serving Church and Society through Christian Higher Education". Dockery's heart beats with the passion of a pastor, theologian, academic, and administrator. He sees the Christian university as a place in society where both mind and heart can renewed along biblical and gospel lines. It is difficult work in our day, but it is a necessary work. Dockery writes, "I believe that the integration of faith and learning is the essence of authentic Christian higher education and should be wholeheartedly implemented across the campus and across the curriculum." And how is this accomplished? Dockery says, "We need more than just new ideas and enhanced programs, we need distinctively Christian thinking, the king of touch-minded thinking that results in culture-engaging living. ...This perspective involves the whole of our human personality. Our minds are to be renewed, our emotions purified, our conscience kept clear, and our will surrendered to God's will. Applying the Great Commandment entails all that we know of ourselves being committed to all that we know of God." A number of the chapters in this book simply sparkled with insight. Pastors will especially note the overlap of Dockery's vision of Christian community in the university with what we also hope to find within the local church. For example, Dockery writes a chapter on "Establishing a Grace-Filled Academic Community" that could and should be applied to the local church as well, with an emphasis on unity, shared life, worship, and service. Within chapter six is a section titled, "Building Blocks for Building a Community with Renewed Message", a message with such urgency and clarity that I did in fact bring it home to our church for a renewed sense of Christian community. Such is the case for much of this excellent book. You may not have a vocational calling to higher education. However, as a pastor or Christian parent, it is your responsibility to consider carefully the type of institution you send your students to for university education. Dockery writes, "I would suggest that the starting point of loving God with our minds, thinking Christianly, points us to a unity of knowledge, a seamless whole, because all true knowledge flows from the one Creator to His one creation." Dockery's vision is compelling and sound, and I heartily recommend this book.
