The Rook Race 2 is an alu beast ready to crush your city circuit. We took everything we loved from the original Race series : Aggressive geometry, excellent overall frame stiffness, raised BB and the highest quality welds. Our stock builds feature Novatec sealed hubs and 27.2mm seat post. As well as a tapered head tube and 31.8mm stem clamp, your Race 2 is fast out of the box.
Standard On Every Rook Race 2
What size ride?
Rook frames are built in 3 sizes. 50cm, 54cm and a 58cm. We recommend:
What about Gears? The only gear you need is go! Each Rook comes standard with a flip-flop rear hub which lets you choose between a 17 tooth fixed gear or 16 tooth freewheel gear. We've thoroughly tested both on South African roads.
Premium Treads Standard! All Rook Cycles come standard with WTB Thickslick® tires. Perfect blend of grip and slip. Confidence in corners, and great to skid. With more rubber than regular road tyres, they last long and are pretty resilient to punctures.
Quick and Easy Assembly Your Rook ride arrives almost-ready-to-roll with minor assembly required using common hand tools. You'll be shredding in no time! Follow our easy guide here.
We're only stoked if you're stoked Backed by our Best-In-Class Warranty. You'll have peace of mind knowing you're getting a new ride you'll love for many years to come.
