Expirience with the R-Raymon HardRay Nine 9.0

Ludwig Döhl Do you want to ride your bike in light terrain? So does the R-Raymon HardRay Nine 9.0. With the weight indication of 9,9 kg, R-Raymon lets the competitors look outdated. Because under the Racebike you will hardly find a lighter model. Riding pleasure guaranteed. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the R-Raymon Hardtail, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. There are Racebike in the price under 6000 Euro that have more potential downhill. For this, the shifting components are pretty much the best thing you can expect on a complete bike for 4799 Euro .
