Expirience with the Radon SWOOP 9.0

Ludwig Döhl Because the Swoop in the aluminum version was one of the most popular enduro and bike park bikes, Radon has the bike 2022 for the first time also issued in a carbon version. Like all Radon bikes, the new SWOOP 9.0 also comes with a distinctive look. The rear end remains made of aluminum. The flat 63,5 degree head tube angle of the Radon Fully gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. When entering the saddle, the Radon conveys a balanced seating position. Radon is installing only absolutely high-quality shifting components. With 6 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
