About the Pinnacle Arkose 2
A real drop-bar legend on the dirt, the Pinnacle Arkose prides itself on versatility. It’s been conquering the trails and kicking up a dust storm long before you were told you were needed a "gravel bike" for any off-piste cycling.
The Arkose 2 comes kitted out with Shimano’s reliable Sora R3000 drivetrain, with a compact 46-30T FSA chainset, and paired with a 11-34T 9-speed cassette. With clearance for 700 x 47c or 650B x 50 tyres, it’s also future proofed with internal cable routing that are compatible with electric groupsets.
Achieving a versatile ride is made easy thanks to the 45mm WTB Riddler tyres sat atop 21mm wide WTB ST i21 rims. A fast rolling, grippy combo at home on a variety of surfaces, the Arkose 2 is the perfect ride for any little adventure or long days in the saddle.
