Sonder Camino
Camino is our adventure gravel bike, and Cycling Weekly's Overall Bike of the Year. Start with the frame. Camino Al is 6061 aluminium, tough enough to take a knock on rough tracks or the daily commute. Camino Ti is hand-welded titanium, light and lively loaded or unloaded. Both have relaxed geometry for long days, and Camino Al takes tyres up to 700c x 50mm. Then choose drop bars with a SRAM or Shimano groupset, a flat bar, or just the frame and fork to build your own. Every Camino is built to order in the UK.
Sonder Camino
For B-Roads and Bridleways
Camino is designed for flow: flying down forest trails, cruising rough B-roads, or grinding gravel climbs in the drizzle. The progressive geometry puts you in a stable, centred position that feels right on the hoods and in the drops. It’s agile when it needs to be and planted when things get loose.
- Award winner: Cycling Weekly's Overall Bike of the Year
- Stable, all-day geometry: long wheelbase and relaxed head angle for comfort and confidence
- Big tyre clearance: up to 700c x 50mm for grip on rougher terrain
- Adventure-ready: cage, rack, mudguard and bottle mounts for commuting or full expedition setups
Ridden. Loved. Proven.
Cycling Weekly named Camino its Overall Bike of the Year. That's proof a small rider-led brand can beat the biggest names in the game by building a bike that just works.
“It’s calm and capable when the trail gets rough. It doesn’t rush — it just gets on with it.”
Neil Sutton, Sonder Product Designer“Loose and varied, hike-a-bike moments (that feel like hours!), steady ups and rolling downs, heart in throat, a little skid, a save, oh the buzz! Finish with pizza, a drink with friends, a laugh about the day.”
Jenny Graham, Adventurer
Designed for Years of Dirt and Joy
Every Camino is built to order in the UK and designed to last. Choose from lightweight 6061 aluminium or aerospace-grade titanium. Fully serviceable, futureproofed with modern standards and generous clearances. And backed by a team who ride what they build.
Because bikes are meant to be ridden. Not replaced.
Confidence in Every Corner
The progressive geometry gives riders a super-comfortable riding position, right in the middle of the bike for the perfect centre of gravity. Short chainstays make it agile through the corners whilst the slackened head angle means that you can take turns with confidence on and off-road.
Effortlessly adaptable, the Camino is as proficient on your local trail as it is on the open road, with tyre clearance up to 700c x 50mm (or 650b wheels) for that added traction and comfort on bumpier terrain.
Rack mounts, triple bottle cage mounts on the down tube and full mudguard mounts give you the option to load up and pedal off on a self-supported ride whenever the feeling takes you.
Rediscover your backyard, get lost on Welsh fire track or tour Europe the dusty way. You never know where Camino might take you.
Built Like It’s Ours. Because It Is.
Every Camino is handbuilt on the edge of the Peak District. That way we can offer unparalleled service, custom options and quality standard. They are then boxed ready to ride and sent to you meaning you have the smallest amount of assembly before getting out on the trails.

Gravel geometry
Tuned for long days with trail capabilty at its heart. The long wheelbase and 69° head angle make for a stable and confident ride, even over rough trails. Every size has been tuned for a 50mm-70mm stem so every rider gets direct and responsive steering.
Wide open tyre clearance
The Camino swallows huge tyres. Ride 700c x 50mm or 650b x 2.2” - that’s most mountain bike tyres covered.
Carbon monocoque fork
Lightweight, stiff and responsive. The Camino's full carbon fork gives direct steering and smooth braking. It's completely adventure ready with mudguard and rack mounts.
Full rack, guard and expedition mounts
Take anything anywhere. The Camino has mounts for everything you need - panniers, guards and extra mounts for adding cages to the forks. The downtube has triple cage mounts so you can set your bottle to be at a height for easy reach or lower to accommodate larger frame bags. Plus, there's mounts on the top tube for bolt-on bike luggage.
Internal Cable Routing
Clean lines and tidy cables thanks to fully guided internal routing. Cable port inserts keep things neat and can be capped off if you're running a wireless groupset. The Camino also has routing for a dropper seatpost.
