Overview
About this bike
A close cousin to the Legend but with more relaxed geometry, the RT-1000 boasts Kestrel’s aerodynamic DNA and is, therefore, plenty fast – yet offers greater comfort over longer distances. The flat bar RT-1000 is the perfect choice for intrepid commuters and avid explorers of all ability levels. With an unfailingly crisp Shimano 105 drivetrain, smooth, strong Shimano brakes, and Kestrel's own Oval Concepts components and rims, you'll be outfitted for your next expedition, no matter how long it may be.
