The perfect lightweight entry into road riding, fast commuting or fitness rides for those who prefer a flat-bar configuration. If you're on a budget or just getting started with road riding, the Rapid flat-bar road bike is the way to go.

Built around a proven alloy frame to keep the weight low, with the addition of a steel fork to soak up road vibration.

With a versatile upright road geometry, this is a comfortable bike that affords the rider good visibility when commuting or riding in the city.

The Rapid flat-bar road bike features a flat handlebar for riders who are familiar with this style of bike; or prefer this setup for a more upright position or easier control at slow speeds in traffic.

Striking a balance between performance, reliability and value-for-money requires careful specification choices. Shimano Tourney shifters and derailleurs are unbeatable at this pricepoint and will provide years of faithful service.

Promax Dual-Pivot Caliper Brakes offer great stopping ability. Dual-pivot means that instead of old-fashioned brake calipers that lever off the central bolt, the brakes lever off two separate pivot points, increasing the braking power, feel and control.

To finish this quality value-priced road bike, the Rapid runs on lightweight double-wall alloy rims with Quando quick-release hubs and Kenda 23c road tyres for a fast-rolling ride.
