Press Release
We’re excited to introduce Rora, our new gravel platform – ready for anything and built for everything from fast-paced weekend racing to rugged bikepacking trips and big mountain adventures.

With a lightweight alloy frame, carbon fork, and finely tuned geometry, it delivers a sharp, efficient ride built to take you further.

What makes Rora special is how it’s built to suit different kinds of riding. Two models give you the freedom to choose between a high-performance build or a simple, adventure-ready workhorse.
Both share the same efficient platform, designed to keep the ride fast, clean, and capable when the road turns to gravel.
