The 2004 Moots Smoothie was a unique, short-lived blend of road and dirt path capability, aimed at riders who wanted the elegance of a titanium road bike with the comfort and versatility to tackle rougher surfaces. Designed with clearance for slightly wider tires and built around a classic road geometry, the Smoothie wasn’t a gravel bike by today’s standards—but it hinted at what was coming. Moots equipped it with their YBB soft-tail design, offering a touch of rear-end compliance without the complexity of suspension. It featured rim brakes, traditional 700c wheels, and the brand’s signature brushed titanium finish with impeccable welds. At the time, it appealed to randonneurs, light touring riders, and early adopters of mixed-surface riding—those who appreciated a smooth ride over long distances without venturing into full-on mountain bike territory.
