Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Pearson On and On. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
12 reasons to buy
- Experts enjoy the “aggressive,” “racy” position, especially on roads and smooth gravel.
- The On and On has mounts for fenders, a rear rack, bottle cages, bags, a top-tube bento box, and anything cages on the forks.
- The frame is compatible with 1x and 2x gearing.
- Pirelli’s Cinturato Gravel H 40mm tires offer “loads of grip” on hardpack and dry surfaces.
- In one expert’s opinion, the On and On is “nimble” without being twitchy.
- The “really fast” On and On “holds speed very well.”
- Experts agree the On and On is a fast climber, responding well to out-of-the-saddle efforts.
- The “light,” “responsive” carbon frame behaves well “when weighed down” with gear.
- Shimano’s GRX800 shifts “quickly” under load, according to one reviewer.
- The Shimano GRX brakes on the top build offer ample power and modulation in testing.
- A tester praises the bike’s versatility, emphasizing the balance of comfort and performance.
- Reviewers compliment the frame’s “sleek lines” and the integrated stem.
4 reasons not to buy
- The tire clearance is relatively limited at 42mm.
- An expert describes this as a “hard-riding bike,” and says smoother, more comfortable bikes are available.
- The On and On quickly reaches its limits on “rocky or rooty” terrain, in one tester’s experience.
- None of the stock On and On builds come with 2x gearing.
Bottom line
The Pearson On and On is a carbon gravel bike available in three Shimano GRX builds, two mechanical (12-speed) and one electronic (11-speed). The “aggressive” road-like geometry and aero tubing put it at the racy end of the gravel spectrum. Experts highlight its “very fast,” “responsive” performance and ability to hold speed. They also praise the balanced handling, lightweight frame, grippy Pirelli tires, and abundant mounts. Testers disagree on the bike’s comfort and versatility. Otherwise, complaints are minor, and experts say the On and On offers “competitive” value, though this may be debatable with import duty and taxes added.Expert Reviews
