Rondo RUUT AL 2 Gravel Bike

The RUUT AL 2 is a versatile, stylish and affordable gravel adventure bike from Rondo. It's ideal for fast gravel grinding sessions, off-road trail riding and epic long-distance bikepacking adventures. Rondo has engineered it with an alloy frame, carbon Twintip 2.0 adjustable geometry forks and has equipped it with an 11-Speed SRAM Apex 1 groupset with a wide-ranging 11-42T cassette and PRO 5.0 FM disc brakes.

Ideal for Training, Commuting and Gravel Racing

The Ruut AL 2 is a great entry-level all-rounder. It’s the perfect choice for a winter training bike, commuter or your first gravel bike. Built around light and tough alloy frame and fitted with the same TwinTip 2.0 forks as higher models. All components have been carefully chosen and tested for reliability. Among them are the user-friendly cable-actuated hydraulic disc brakes, a simple and reliable 1x11 drivetrain, FSA crankset and high-grip WTB Nano tyres. This bike is responsive and has elegant internal cable routing for a clean finish. We guarantee you will clock up lots of miles on this model.

Strong, Durable and Lightweight Frame and Fork

With a super-strong and responsive 6061 aluminium frame and full carbon forks, this gravel bike urges you to explore further from the beaten track and advance your riding onwards from long-distance road rides with the confidence to nip off the open road and into the forest.

SRAM Apex 11-Speed Drivetrain and PRO 5.0 FM Disc Brakes

Powered on by a SRAM Apex 1x11-Speed drivetrain with a wide-ranging 11-42T cassette and cable-actuated hydraulic disc brakes. This setup provides gears for every riding scenario, whether climbing the steepest inclines, spending long days in the saddle or attacking the fastest descents, you have the confidence and composure to dominate every challenge with inspiring efficiency.

PRO 5.0 FM caliper brakes are powerful, mechanically actuated hydraulic brakes with full CNC construction. The hydraulic system is fully sealed and maintenance free and the pistons use extra durable, cold weather resistant seals for extended durability in all weather conditions. Due to tight tolerances and durable sealing, the return action of pistons may seem slow at first, but this effect disappears after a period of break-in. This does not affect the performance or braking power in any way.

Rondo TwinTip Adjustable Geometry Carbon Forks

With Rondo’s TwinTip 2.0 Carbon forks technology at its helm, this ride features adjustable geometry by raising or lowering the front end’s angles. The first setting provides steeper angles and a lower riding position and is optimised for racing and sporty high-adrenaline riding. The second option offers slacker angles for a more relaxed ride position for maximised riding comfort that’s perfect for long-distance adventures.

Rondo Tubeless Compatible Wheels

This Rondo Ruut AL 2 Gravel Bike provides versatile and dynamic performance suited to a wide range of cycling outings and is perfect for attacking the trail as it is for all-day epics. It also rolls upon high-quality fast-rolling Rondo Wheels and quality tyres for superb pace and grip wherever you ride. This bike also features a top-quality finishing kit from Rondo that ensures you have dependable and stylish components travelling with you for the most sensational ride imaginable.
