Rondo Ruut AL 2 Gravel Bike 2021
With its versatile aluminium frame, carbon fork, dependable components and attractive price point, the Rondo Ruut AL 2 Gravel Bike is a great entry-level all-rounder that’s perfect for exploring off-road, winter training on the road and commuting.
A hardy but lightweight aluminium frame is lively and responsive and is partnered by a vibration-damping full carbon fork. The fork has an innovative TwinTip feature that makes the handling of the bike more nimble or more composed by altering the offset and height of the front axle. This means that the ride characteristics can be tuned to suit the terrain and topography of the ride ahead.
Adaptability is enhanced by the frameset offering compatibility with either 700c or 650b wheels and tremendous amounts of tyre clearance. Luggage rack and mudguard mounting points are great additions for bikepacking and commuting duties while strong and light Rondo alloy wheels handle even the roughest of riding surfaces with aplomb.
The SRAM Apex 1 gear configuration changes with accuracy and dependability and the TRP mechanical disc brakes offer easy maintenance and reliable stopping power in all weather conditions.
