State has released some fresh paint jobs, revised build kits, and subtle spec changes, but nothing significant has changed since the 4130 All-Road was released in 2020. On paper, it has consistently been one of the most value-packed steel bikes available, and while State has increased the price of a complete build slightly for 2025, they’ve introduced some promising new specs we’re happy to see.
The 2025 State 4130 All-Road is the same steel gravel bike we reviewed, still based around a 4130 Chromoly frame, matching fork, plenty of mounting points for racks and cages, thru-axles, and options for flat- and drop-bar builds. The 2025 model introduces many new specs, including a SRAM UDH rear dropout, semi-internal cable routing, internal dropper post routing, top tube bosses, a third downtube mount, and increased tire clearance for up to 27.5 x 2.4″ or 700 x 55mm tires.
There are also a handful of build spec updates, including wider rim profiles (23mm wide for 700c and 25mm wide for 650b), 32 spoke count instead of 28, upgraded hubs, and the stock 15° flare drop bar has been changed to a 33° flare bar. All builds are now specced with a 12-speed drivetrain, a 40T chainring instead of a 42T, an 11-42T cassette with the option for an 11-50T upgrade, and cable-actuated hydraulic brakes come standard instead of as an upgrade.
As always, the 2025 State 4130 All-Road is available in multiple configurations, including drop- and flat-bar setups, and upgrades are available to include a suspension fork, better-performing components, and the ability to shed weight. We’re happy to see State sticking with a competitive price tag, with complete builds starting at just $1,000, making this a worthy entry-level gravel bike platform for anyone interested in getting into bikepacking. The geometry has remained unchanged since our review, so most of what was shared there remains true for 2025.
The new 4130 All-Road is available in three paint jobs: a clear-coated raw steel, lilac, and a light sandy color. Find further details and order yours today at StateBicycle.com.
