For the quickest, most comfortable, most versatile commute available, the Rapide RL3 Disc allows you to spin along on road, tracks, gravel and towpaths with equal ease and efficiency. Fast rolling, file tread, Continental SportContact II tyres on the RL3 disc are speedy on the road, yet grippy in muddy and loose conditions, meaning that you can choose the most direct route to get where you are going. Picking up speed is easy, with 22 Shimano 105 gears allowing you to smoothly accelerate and, thanks to a wide range 11-32 cassette, cope with any hills that your chosen route has to throw at you. When the time comes to bring your RL3 disc to a halt, TRP HY-RD brakes combine the ease of maintenance of cable pull disc brakes with the power of hydraulics to give you the best possible control in all weather conditions. Tough Alex rims will take the knocks off road and stay true on your commute, while the quality Formula hubs bring a touch of Italian class to the excellent Rapide RL3 disc. Add in quality Rapide alloy bars, stem and seatpost, plus full mudguard eyelets and rear rack mounts makes the RL3 a great all round package. Whether you are looking for a winter training bike, a fast al conditions commuter or a way into the 'dark side' that is cyclo cross, the Rapide RL3 disc is a box ticker extraordinary.
