Expirience with the Rockrider Race 740 NX/GX Eagle

Ludwig Döhl The Race 700 is one of the most stylish bikes in the Rockrider model range. On the scale, the Rockrider Racebike with 11,7 kg looks good. Most Racebike in the price range until under 2000 Euro are heavier. We have checked all geometry measures and come to the following conclusion: the Rockrider Hardtail is a very balanced customer. The seating position can be described neither as sporty nor as comfortable. It has a moderate character. With the shifting components, Rockrider fulfills not only the current standard, but even puts the icing on the cake with its extremely high-quality components.
