Each year, the ENVE Builder Round-Up challenges us to think differently—to build a bike that pushes boundaries while staying true to who we are. For 2025, we answered with a showstopper: The Moots Blackbird.
Introducing the Moots Blackbird: a bold, high-gloss showpiece built to turn heads and break the mold. Built exclusively for ENVE’s Grodeo event, the Blackbird fuses our high-performance heritage with striking visual design—and showcases just how far titanium can go when precision meets creativity.
At its core is the Routt CRD chassis, our flagship gravel platform known for clean lines, fully internal routing, and that signature Moots ride feel. We spec’d it with nothing but the best:
-
SRAM Red XPLR AXS drivetrain
-
ENVE Gravel IN-Route Fork
-
ENVE AR One-Piece Handlebar
-
SES 4.5 wheels
-
ENVE Hex tires—for maximum grip across mixed terrain
But what truly sets the Blackbird apart is the finish. In collaboration with Black Magic Paint, we departed from our traditional anodized style and went full jet black—then layered it with subtle gold detailing that commands attention without sacrificing classs.
Inspired by its namesake, the Blackbird isn’t just a bike. It’s a statement.
A modern American classic.
A tribute to speed, craftsmanship, and the relentless pursuit of the perfect ride.
