    Summary

    Expirience with the Rose GROUND CONTROL 4

    Rose GROUND CONTROL 4 Review With the GROUND CONTROL 4 , Rose delivers a solid downcountry bike for a reasonable price. If you really want a fully despite a small budget, you should take a closer look at this model. With its balanced handling, riding the Rose Fully feels really intuitive. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the GROUND CONTROL 4 suite the taste of most bikers. On climbs, other bikes in the under 4500 Euro present a little better performance than the Rose Downcountry-Bike. The strongest case for this bike is however: The coherent geometry and grippy tires ensure full send mode on the trail. Rose gives 6 years warranty on the bike.
