Product Details

The Roll 8 is a stylish steel bike that can go anywhere. A full range of gears means you won't be able to find a hill too steep, while the classic frame absorbs the shocks, lasts a lifetime, and jumps when you say go

Forged alloy 48T track-style singlespeed crankset with alloy ring is tough and light
Top mount 8-speed thumb shifter plus Altus 8-speed derailleur and 11-32t configuration for added efficiency no matter the ups or downs on hills
Well-built, classic Cr-Mo singlespeed frame with vertical dropouts is simple, smooth, and durable
Deep V rear and short V 700c rims and bolt-on, high-flange front and rear (32-hole, cassette) hubs complement the Roll's durable urban design
Forged-alloy with custom CNC groove rear (cassette) and front hubs for stylish and smooth cruising
Extremely durable uni-crown Cr-Mo fork with straight blades and custom cast dropouts
Narrow alloy riser bars with more back sweep for front rack control
