This is a very good bike that offers exceptional value for money.
Rapide are an English brand that was formerly the sister company to Genesis.
They were formed to offer a slightly different option to the Genesis line-up with most of their range featuring an aluminium frame. The range offered different spec’s at different price-points with the better models having a carbon frame.
The Genesis CDA model was similar in principle to the Rapide range.
This particular bike has been ‘custom built’ and offers a unique bike with a contrasting spec to the original model.
The bike comes fitted with an almost full Shimano Tiagra groupset, matched to an FSA chainset. The rest of the components are in-house Rapide branded parts made by Genesis / Shimano as well as some matching Shimano Pro brand too. We have used a set of Shimano R500 (colour co-ordinated) wheels that are fitted with (bigger volume) Continental Ultra Sport tyres to complete.
The bike is in exceptional condition as it is made from a new / old stock frame and a selection of new or lightly used parts. The bike is colour co-ordinated the bike throughout the build and as such it looks truly remarkable.
The custom built spec is as follows;
Aluminium Frame
Carbon Fibre forks
FSA Omega double chainset ( 50 / 34 )
Shimano Tiagra 20 speed STI gearing
Shimano Tiagra front mech
Shimano Tiagra rear mech
Tektro dual pivot brakes
Shimano R 500 Factory wheels
Shimano Pro LT stem – Brand new Shimano Pro XLT handlebars
Rapide RL seatpost / saddle
** Brand new / Continental Ultra Sport 28` tyres
** Brand new / Shimano Pro bar tape
This bike would be an excellent investment for someone looking for a great bike without paying a huge amount of money.
If you are looking for something that is a little bit different then this is the bike is for you.
