The newly designed Romulus 2.0 2X GRX has the versatility and speed to do almost anything! Rack it, fender it, take it out for a group ride or do a quick trip to your favourite lakeside campsite.
Big Tires = Big Fun and adds versatility, safety and comfort opening up the ability to explore paths less traveled. Adventure Road, Adventure Gravel, choose your own adventure wherever it takes you.
The updated geometry of the Romulus now fits even more people with a new 42cm/XS size! Creating a more upright riding position also makes the Roumulus 2.0 more stable and smooth whether in traffic 5 days a week or rolling down a forest service road on your way to a back-woods campsite.
Go here, there, and everywhere.
At 27.5 x 2.1”, the WTB Nano tire has a moderately aggressive tread for more off road control wit
h a centre strip for pavement. The frame will also accommodate 700c wheels if you want to go to a more road focused set up. Geometry splits the difference between a road and ‘cross frame, perfect for those adventure rides that involve multiple surfaces.
New this year we have moved the Romulus 2.0 from 9 speed to 10 speed with Shimano Tiagra Shifters paired with an “Adventure Orientated” 46/30T GRX Crankset and 10 Speed 11-36T Cassette. This adds a lot to the range of gearing available to you that works great on and off road!
Go Farther, Bring More, and More and More!
2.1” high volume tires let you tackle any terrain, inspire confidence no matter the road condition. And yet they are fast, the 27.5 x 2.1” tires give up nothing in terms of rolling resistance yet add incredible amounts of traction and improve puncture resistance. The extra volume adds generous customizability in using adjusted air pressures for your riding styles.
The 4130 CroMo steel frame and fork are built for maximum strength and ride quality. These Road PLUS bikes fit perfectly for performance seeking adventurers who love smooth, fast steel as much as they crave asphalt, gravel & dirt. We have also added a replaceable rear derailleur hanger.
We have added even more mounts to this new frame increasing versatility and giving you more options to go even further with your adventures. Back country touring? Traditional road touring? Bikepacking? Not a problem! Bring it!
