Raleigh Strada 1 2018 Hybrid Bike

Raleigh Strada 1 2018 Hybrid Bike

The Strada is a fast no-nonsense commuter/hybrid bike with up-to-the-minute high-volume 42mm-wide tyres that glide over potholed roads and rough tracks.

We consider the Raleigh Strada range as the current best-value replacements for our own Revolution bikes (which are not currently available). Here's why.

Lightweight Frame

• The 6061 aluminium alloy frame is strong, lightweight and true

Lighter Suspension

• The steel fork is lighter than any suspension fork and it will never require maintenance

Wheels / Tyres

• Up-to-the-minute 650B alloy wheels built extra strong with double-wall rims and 36 spokes, and extra secure (bolted on rather than quick release)
• Like a fair few of today's better bicycles, every Raleigh Strada is shod with 42mm wide 650B tyres which offer a perfect balance of speed and comfort for most road / light trail conditions, whether you're sprinting on smooth tarmac or negotiating rutted roads and Sustrans cycle tracks
• To make them even more perfect, the tyres' reflective sidewalls help get you seen from all directions when shone upon by fellow road users' headlights

Shimano Gearing

• Shimano EZ Fire 3x7 shifters are indeed proven for their smooth reliable action
• The Shimano 48/38/28t chainset and 14-34 rear cassette offer a wide range of gears, whether you're climbing, downhilling or sprinting on the flat
  
  

If You Still Need Convincing....

• Brakes: Alloy V-brakes are sound, efficient and the easy to maintain
• Saddle: The Selle Royal saddle is light cushioned and comfortable
• Handlebars: The riser bars offer a semi-upright 45˚ riding position, and deliver mountain-like easy-steering control. The traditional quill stem offers more height adjustment options than most clamp-on handlebar stems
• Extras: The frame and fork both come with the eyelets and clearance required to fit mudguards and pannier rack

Did you know we offer Free Bike Fitting? Order any extras such as mudguards with the bike and we will waive our standard fitting charge
