Expirience with the Rose THRILL HILL 2

Ludwig Döhl With a telescopic support and 120 mm on the fork, the THRILL HILL 2 wants to sweeten trail rides on long tours. On the scale, the Rose with 12,3 kg looks good. Most Downcountry-Bike in the price range until under 3000 Euro are heavier. You have no idea if you prefer high speed stability or playful handling? Then you can´t go wrong with the Downcountry-Bike von Rose. It´s handling is pleasantly balanced. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Rose THRILL HILL 2. Apart from this criticism, the sporty orientation makes the THRILL HILL 2 the best climber in the price range below under 3000 Euro. The guarantee of 6 years proves that Rose is behind its products.
