Reid cycles granite review. Like every reid cycles bike the granite 4 0 comes with a lifetime frame warranty as well as a two year warranty on all other non consumable parts so you can ride it as hard you like. The reid granite is one of the standard bearers of this evolution of the brand and it s bang on trend as a disc brake equipped gravel all road adventure road bike. Simply put gravel grinders aka all road adventure road or dirt road racers are like a cx cylcocross bike built for endurance riding.
To aid comfort the granite s tube lengths are longer the headtube angle is a lazy 70 8 for the medium large and the wheelbase is over a metre. In this video i will be reviewing the reid cx after 5000km from sydney to perth for charity i did bikepacking with this bike and the value for the reid cx. What jumps out at you first about the reid granite is how slick and complete it all looks. Everything has a place and purpose.
There isn t a detail that s an afterthought. For online home delivery orders bikes are shipped in a box 85 assembled and require some final assembly. Built for weekend adventures and the dirtiest of commutes get outdoors and explore on the granite 1 0. Reid have always operated in the value for money segment the granite is one of their higher priced bikes but still embodies the same approach.
I use my bike to commute into work which i said at the start and since then the crank has come apart various wheel spokes. Meet the new reid granite.
