The Camino Pro Di2 is the top model of the STEVENS Carbon Gravel series. Unlike the three RS models with their “race” character, it emphasizes the adventure and touring aspect. The series is available in six different frame sizes, allowing riders to perfectly adjust the bike to their individual needs.
The STEVENS full-carbon frame has earned multiple test victories, impressing editors with its excellent weight, outstanding ride quality, comfortable geometry, and well-thought-out equipment. On the new Di2, Shimano’s wireless electronic shifting system provides reliable, fast, and comfortable gear changes.
Alongside the Pro Di2 are the Camino Pro with Shimano’s GRX 820 2x12 and the Camino with the GRX 820/610 groupset with 2x12 drivetrain. Both cover the mid-price range, while the Pro Di2 rounds off the collection at the top.

Integrated cable routing and extensive bikepacking options.
On modern performance bikes, brake hoses and shifting cables disappear inside the fork, frame, and headset. The clean look reduces dirt buildup and minimizes maintenance. With Shimano’s high-end wireless shifting systems, things get even more elegant and compact. The batteries for the electronic derailleurs need charging – everything else is managed via software and app.
Bikepacking, as a modern and minimalist form of travel, relies on individually assembled bag sets that can be mounted at numerous dedicated attachment points on the Camino Pro’s frame and fork. This allows the loadout to be adapted to the destination and the length of the tour.
Frame and fork clearance for tires up to 45 mm.
Tires play a key role as demands continue to rise. They are designed to roll efficiently, offer durability, puncture protection, and low weight, while above all contributing to excellent traction and crucial comfort. The comfort provided by wider tires is considered one of the main reasons for the success of gravel bikes. Both the STEVENS Camino and Camino Pro models allow the use of 45 mm comfort tires. On the Pro Di2, the slimmer 40 mm version of the Schwalbe G-One R Pro Evolution comes as standard.
Fast, electronic Shimano GRX 825 Di2 2x12 shifting.
Shimano’s GRX Di2 wireless shifting also proves its worth off-road: no tangled or stiff cables, minimal maintenance, and gear commands that reach front and rear derailleurs quickly and reliably.
The 2x12 drivetrain offers a wide gear range of 507% along with finely graduated steps between gears. This ensures riders always have the optimal cadence available.
An innovative technology on the rear derailleur is SHADOW RD+. An optional chain stabilizer tightens the chain and prevents chain slap or chain drop when riding in rough terrain.
High-quality Fulcrum Soniq carbon wheelset.
Soniq – an innovative, lightweight yet robust gravel wheelset from Italian premium manufacturer Fulcrum. The Camino Pro Di2’s carbon wheelset is tubeless- as well as tube-compatible and weighs around 1,590 grams. The matte-black finish gives it a refined look, while the modern wave-shaped rim profile is designed according to aerodynamic principles.
The rim varies in height from 42 to 47 mm and measures 28 mm wide (25 mm internal), allowing the use of all gravel tires. A technical highlight is the hub technology with low aluminum flanges and adjustable sealed high-quality bearings. The 12 mm thru-axles (100 and 142 mm) and 24 stainless steel spokes each provide the wheel with optimal stiffness values.
