Pinnacle Arkose A8 2019 Adventure Road Bike Review

• About the Pinnacle Arkose AlfineThe Pinnacle Arkose was a gravel bike before we were using the term regularly. For 2020 it‚Äôs had the most significant re-design in its 7 years in the market.The new Arkose is a benchmark for the versatility this type of bike can offer. The new frame has full compatibility for wheel size (650B x 52C or 700C x 45mm), rear axle and Di2/cable gearing options, plus internal F+R dynamo light routing. Add this to proven handling that sits on that fine line between the best of road and gravel bike characteristics and it‚Äôs a contender for being your one do-it-all drop bar bike. This Alfine variant brings the simplicity and reliability of internal gearing to the world of gravel bikes, featuring the high-performance Shimano Alfine S7001 8-speed hub. These types of gears mean fewer moving parts, fewer shifters, and less maintenance, all whilst offering a good spread of gear ratios for tackling diverse terrains.The Road build-ups of the 2020 Arkose frameset are ready for the rider who sees tarmac as a route to anywhere and distance as the measure to be pushed. It‚Äôs also equally for the riders who see the surface of average UK lanes as closer to a cart track than a road‚Ķ And despite the Road tag, it‚Äôs still for those who want the option to take that route less ridden from time to time. Equipped with relaxed geometry and WTB Riddler 700 x 37c tyres and more performance-based contact points, Arkose Road is always adaptable, always comfortable and goes far when the mood takes you.Key Features6013-T6 heat treated alloy frame with a stiff but light construction allowing you to convert more of your power into speed Full Carbon Fork is lightweight and engineered to flex, absorbing shock and vibrationShimano Alfine S7001 8 speed internal hub gears successfully combines the reliability and simplicity of internal gearing systems with high-performance shifting TRP Hylex RS Hydraulic Disc Brakes give powerful, controllable and consistent stopping power in all conditionsWTB Riddler Comp 700 x 37c Tyres offer great traction off road and excellent rolling ability on the tarmacAbout the BrandPinnacle is a UK bike brand whose mission is to make better bikes available for all riders and for 2020 we‚Äôre offering our most exciting line up to date.
