bonvelo Singlespeed Bike "RAKEDE Gates Carbon Drive Asphalt"
Our newest arrival for the 2023 season: the innovative bonvelo singlespeed RAKEDE in cool asphalt grey with the innovative Gates Carbon Drive belt drive!
What a casual colour combination: the aerodynamic frame of the RAKEDE Asphalt is painted in a light asphalt grey gloss, while the shiny black fork creates a strong contrast. The internal routing of the brake cable through the frame enhances its tidy and clean design. The "Gates Carbon Drive" CDN belt drive is becoming increasingly worldwide popular and is the most common drive system with a carbon belt. The frame is specially designed for this system and can be opened at the rear dropout. The bike runs extremely quietly and with the Gates belt drive, characterized by its extremely low-maintenance needs due to the very long life expectancy of the belt compared to a traditional chain.
Advantegous for all commuters: the Gates Carbon Drive is completely free of grease and oil - so your pants will stay clean in the future!
The "RAKEDE Gates Carbon Drive Asphalt" is also equipped with the popular Freedom Thickslick tires with a 25mm width and its wheels have the latest generation of our custom-made hubs with sealed cartridge bearings. In contrast to our other singlespeed and fixie bikes, this bicycle offers only the freewheel option, which means you cannot switch the rear wheel to fixed gear. Alternatively, an upgrade to Continental's "Gatorskin" in 25mm or 28mm are also possible.
In direct comparison with the popular singlespeed & fixie "BLIZZ", this new model is almost 2kg lighter with a 9.2kg weight and has a slightly longer wheelbase, which allows excellent running and smoothness even at high speeds. Of course, the accesories offered in our Showroom fit this bike - the attachment of mudgurads, bells or light sets work quickly and easily.
The available frame sizes are 55cm (for people up to about 181cm tall) and 59cm (for people between 181cm and 198cm tall). The logo and lettering are discreetly and high-quality painted in black.
