Expirience with the Radon JEALOUS AL 8.0 HD

Ludwig Döhl With the JEALOUS AL 8.0 HD , Radon has a long-running favorite in its portfolio. This has already put a smile on a lot of people´s faces. With its balanced handling, riding the Radon Racebike feels really intuitive. At the seating position, Radon combines the best of two worlds: It´s balanced character is a good mix of sporty efficiency and a comfortable upright postiion. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range on long tours, the Racebike of Radon is one of the best models in the on long tours category. We like: 6 years warranty on the frame!
