Expirience with the Rockrider Race 740

Ludwig Döhl The Race 700 is one of the most stylish bikes in the Rockrider model range. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Rockrider, at 11,4 kg. Thus, the Rockrider is one of the lighter Racebike that you get for 1799 Euro . The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. At the seating position, Rockrider combines the best of two worlds: It´s balanced character is a good mix of sporty efficiency and a comfortable upright postiion. Rockrider is installing only absolutely high-quality shifting components.
