Immersing yourself inside the nature inspires you to explore beyond; to ride faster, further and tackling adventures ahead. Bikepacking has been an emerging trend that surge rapidly, especially in the West, and Rodalink Singapore is excited to accommodate you in trying out the liberating feeling of the ride.
After few years of development, Polygon released their newest gravel bikes line-up, Polygon Bend R series. With few enhancements over the previous model, Polygon Bend R has a vision to become the ultimate adventure companion to both beginners and cycling enthusiasts. With their iconic tagline “Beyond the Bend”, Polygon provides two selections of the bikes: Polygon Bend R7 and Bend R9X.
Your Gravel Bike Partner
Define an ideal gravel bike in a sentence: it has to support you properly and provides much stability (because yes, we can’t predict how rough the unpaved road will be) plus reinforce more control over the bike at the same time. Within this upgrade, Polygon offers longer chainstay and wheelbase that answers the standard. At the same time, the series maintains a slight upright position to be more versatile – providing comfort on roads and confidence to conquer rugged terrain.
Personalization, Personalization!
Gravel riding is just another art of blending different things! Personalization makes possible by wider tire clearance compared to the previous model. Polygon Bend R7 and Bend R9X accommodates up to 47C tires. This gives you flexibility to adjust the tires according to your preferences.
Make yourself free to prep the bike with bottles and bags! Polygon Bend Series features an adequate number of mounting bolts on the seat tube, top tube and down tube – there are 16 mounts in total for your bikepacking pleasure.
No Compromise for Comfort
The Polygon Bend Series is equipped with a dropper seat post and internal routing for more comfortable ride and clean look. Enjoy effortless saddle height adjustment with single push on the lever. It’s handy especially when crossing both technical trails or smooth descents, to give riders more control. Riders can utilize this by using left lever (for Bend R7) or by pressing left and right lever simultaneously (for Bend R9X).
The Polygon Bend R7 features SRAM Apex 11-speed mechanical groupset, carbon fork, and an alloy-rimmed wheelset. Meanwhile, the Polygon Bend R9X features SRAM Rival Etap AXS 12-speed groupset for superior wireless shifting and also with carbon Novatec wheels.
