Gravel Bikes

(What's a gravel bike?)

More robust than a road bike and much quicker and lighter than a mountain bike. Gravel bikes offer an interesting option for the riders who want to travel on and off road. To put it simply, a gravel bike combines a road bike with a cyclo-cross bike. There adaptability, versatility, and ruggedness make them a perfect commuting bike, an ideal light touring or, a great winter training bike, or one bike that can just about tackle anything you throw at it! All gravel bikes have disc brakes, hydraulic disc brakes offer more stopping power especially in wintery conditions or when riding off road. Gravel bikes tend to have more clearance which allows wider tyres which not only increase comfort but also increase grip levels. The extra clearance also allows the use of mudguards so many manufacturers use lugs with eyelets for ease of fitting. Altogether, this makes a very strong augment for owning a gravel bike!

THE FIRST VARIABLE GEOMETRY GRAVEL BIKE IN THE WORLD

The Ruut range was born from the need to have a REALLY versatile bike. One that would be comfortable enough for backpacking and long distance riding, but at the same time would retain a clearly sporty character. At Rondo we are all competitive guys - we ride fast, we race - but we don't need a bike for the CX World's. What we want from a drop bar bike is to be able to go long, and go fast, especially on rough roads. So, after over two years of development, we came up with a tool that we believe is the ultimate solution for real-world riders.
