Rondo Ruut ST

My dream all-road, all-season bike. I've chased my friend on his Enduro MTB through some of the more casual Squamish trails and it's a blast to be underbiked. The gearing is perfect and the Shockstop Stem paired with the large volume tires is all the suspension I need for my style of riding.

Current Stage Info:

Finally picked up a replacement for my CG-R Seatpost with the much less wacky looking Roval Terra model off the modern Diverge bikes from Specialized. I always wanted this bike to be understated and the S-Works seatpost kind of stuck out like a sore thumb to me.

With this final piece installed, I feel like this bike is complete with the only remaining modifications I can see coming are just replacements for worn out parts like tires, brakes, and handlebar tape. We'll see!

Thanks man! I was really into the understated frame branding and more traditional geometry. The for is incredibly chunky hahah true. This one is the first iteration and Rondo revised the styling quite a bit for v2.
