Fairdale Rocketship Gravel Frame Gloss Black 650b/700c
The Rockitship returns as Fairdale’s top-of-the-line, Reynolds 725 steel all-purpose gravel bike, with the comfort, resilience, and reliability chromoly is known for.
Built with a performance-inspired geometry that retains Fairdale’s keepin’-it-simple-keeps-it-fun design sensibilities, the Rockitship is at home on gravel, long-distance touring, bike-packing, CX racing, or even charging around a city. This new modern reinterpretation of the popular Rockitship now comes with SRAM’s UDH, rack, fender, and accessory mounts, and compatibility with mechanical and electronic groupsets.
