Summary
The Rondo Ruut is a versatile gravel bike with adjustable geometry and a unique design aimed at providing a comfortable yet efficient ride. It excels in handling and ride quality, with a stiff frame that's efficient on flats and climbs, though some riders may find the front end too stiff. The bike's adjustable features and ample tire clearance make it adaptable to various riding conditions, but its fast-rolling tires may not suit all terrains.

Originally launched in 2017, the Rondo Ruut CF has carved a reputation for its impressive handling and ride quality. Now in its second iteration, the Ruut CF1 aims to build on these fundamentals with a series of radical design and geometry changes that make it even more competitive than before. Like its forebear, it benefits from adjustable geometry but also gets a SRAM UDH interface for compatibility with T-Type drivetrains and the Red XPLR AXS groupset.
