Pinnacle Arkose R2 2019 Road Bike

About the Pinnacle Arkose The Pinnacle Arkose was a gravel bike before we were using the term regularly. For 2019 it’s had the most significant re-design in its 7 years in the market.The new Arkose is a benchmark for the versatility this type of bike can offer. The new Arkose frame has full compatibility for wheel size (650B x 52C or 700C x 45mm), rear axle and Di2/cable gearing options, plus internal F+R dynamo light routing. Add this to proven handling that sits on that fine line between the best of road and gravel bike characteristics and it’s a contender for being your one do-it-all drop bar bike.The Road build-ups of the 2019 Arkose frameset are ready for the rider who sees tarmac as a route to anywhere and distance as the measure to be pushed. It’s also equally for the rider who see the surface of average UK lanes as closer to a cart track than a road… And despite the Road tag, it’s still for those who want the option to take that route less ridden from time to time. Equipped with 50-34 tooth road chain sets, WTB exposure 700 x 30c tyres and more performance-based contact points, Arkose Road is always adaptable, always comfortable and goes far when the mood takes you.Key Features6013-T6 heat treated alloy frame with a stiff but light construction allowing you to convert more of your power into speed Full Carbon Fork is lightweight and engineered to flex, absorbing shock and vibrationShimano 105 R7000 2×11 Speed Drivetrain provides high performance, super-fast, light and accurate shiftingShimano 105 R7000 Hydraulic Disc Brakes give powerful, controllable and consistent stopping power in all conditionsWTB Exposure 30c Tyres offer great traction off road and excellent rolling ability on the tarmacAbout the BrandPinnacle is a UK bike brand whose mission is to make better bikes available for all riders and for 2018 we’re offering our most exciting line up to date.
