Alloy isn't dead - RADON BIKES presents the new trail AL series

[@OresteCiotoli]

They look really great, i like the new style of these AL frames; is there anything in plan (restyling) for the AL version of the SWOOP also?

[@TheHM78]

Frame only option?

[@madcapper6]

Why are your bikes not shipped to the US?

[@ricaaat]

well...cause its difficult and expensive im guessing. same reason i can't buy many canadian or american brands in europe.

[@madcapper6]

@@ricaaat Possibly. But how expensive can it be if the buyer pays the shipping cost? Lauf is a 6-man operation in Iceland but you can buy their bikes in the US.

Keep-in-mind the bike was specially tuned, and equipped, for the commercial.

[@sim_dude]

just saw your video, what do you think of the bike ?

@@sim_dude Long Story Short. A very fun and solid MTB with very good parts for the money. 🤌 I choose size 20 (L) with my 1,81m (5.11ft) and it fit perfect. + I was amazed how good the brakes are even with 180 rotors front. + Even more the 130mm Dropper was not sooo bad, on my Enduro I am using a 200mm one, so I know the difference. + The suspension is good + I like the look... - ...but the frame is not naked Alloy it is painted silver matte. Looks ok but not like the raw look. - You really have to check all the bolts when you get the bike new. I had like 5 screws in the linkage area not tightened with the right torque. That can be very dangerous. - One negative thing I noticed is that the rear end is not the most sensitive one, but maybe that is also because of the cheap RS Deluxe shock. I sold the RADON Skeen Trail AL 7.0 this week because it felt strange to own 3 MTBs. One Hardtail and one Enduro is enough for me at the moment. The idea was to replace my Orbea Laufey Hardtail, but I just can't get rid of that simple beast. I hope my words help you. If you want to now more, feel free to reach out.

@@rawpovmtb thank you that is really helpful i'm eyeing it for a friend, as it is around 1.6K€ rn but i've heard people having tire rub issue in the rear triangle

[@rawpovmtb]

@@sim_dude No problem. I also heard of that issue. Maybe I am too light with 72kg or my riding style is to mellow but I didn't had that issue in my 6 rides 😅 If you are crazy aggressive or it is you only bike I maybe would go with the RADON Slide Trail AL 7.0 OR getting a good Hardtail 😎
