  • Touring in Tuscany.
  • Exploring in Vietnam.
  • Vineyard hopping in Napa.

If your idea of a vacation is heading to places like Croatia, Costa Rica, or Vietnam to tour the local back roads, the Speed TR is your bike. With your trusty Speed TR, there isn’t a back alley that can’t be explored. It’s a full featured touring bike that packs in seconds into a suitcase for convenient travel. The robust 4130 chromoly steel frame and custom Tour racks can be loaded with luggage. High-volume Schwalbe Big Apple tires provide cushy comfort on even the worst roads. A SRAM DualDrive drivetrain serves up 24 evenly spaced gears, including a 21” low gear when you are fully loaded and humping up a climb in the Alps.

  • BioLogic™ PostPump – high capacity floor pump integrated inside the seat post.
  • Syntace VRO adjustable handlebar system allow riders to find the most comfortable riding position.
  • Ergon grips with magnesium bar ends allow multiple hand positions and are the most comfortable grips on the market.
