Expirience with the Rockrider 500 S vollgefedert Carbon

Ludwig Döhl You are looking for a bike for on long tours in light terrain use? Then look no further and check out the Rockrider Fully. A low weight means more rideability on different terrain. If the manufacturer's indication is right, the 12,8 kg of the Rockrider Fully counts towards the lighter Downcountry-Bike that you get for under under 3000 Euro. You have no idea if you prefer high speed stability or playful handling? Then you can´t go wrong with the Rockrider 500 S. It´s handling is pleasantly balanced. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Downcountry-Bike of Rockrider suite the taste of most bikers. If you love crisp downhill runs, there are other Downcountry-Bike around under 3000 Euro that would suit you better. Rockrider is installing only absolutely high-quality shifting components. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon / Alu frame sizing runs small.
