The R1 is the latest complete bike from Kinesis UK, following on the success of the G2 complete gravel bike and heavily influenced by our award winning Kinesis RTD and 4S road frames. The R1 is a 1x road bike aimed riders of all abilities and experiences.1x Road Bike for all rider abilities and experienceFor cyclists craving simplicity, reliability and the capability of a 1x DrivetrainClearance for 34c Tyres (brand depending). 30c with mudguardsPannier rack and full mudguard mountsFeaturing Kinesis Rider Fit GeometrySemi-Sloping Top Tube on Smallest sizeWith the MTB and Cyclocross bikes now firmly entrenched with 1x and the burgeoning Gravel scene going the same way, we ve seen many road riders experimenting and using 1x Road set ups, including many members of the Kinesis UK Team.The R1 is aimed at the cyclist craving simplicity, reliability and the capability a 1x drivetrain can offer, in short a bike they can just get on and ride and have fun.The R1 would make a great everyday road bike with an easy-to-use and easy-to-maintain drivetrain for their commute, their spins into the countryside and their trip to the cafe. We have specified the R1 with true ride-anywhere gear ratios, more than enough for the steepest climbs and the fastest descent. The R1 is fitted with drop handlebars with slightly wider bars than you would usually find on a road bike, and they also have a 10 degree flare. Wider bars give more ride control and capacity for bar bags (bike packing) which are very popular now on day rides even. Plus, plenty of room for your handlebar furniture (lights, GPS, bell, Phone bracket etc)We ve also specified room for up to 34c tyres (brand depending), or 30c tyres with full mudguards and mounts for a pannier rack. The R1 features our Kinesis Rider Fit Geometry to give better fit and more consistent handling for a wider range of riders. The smallest size has a semi sloping top tube for greater seat post extension increasing the comfort. Longer reaches (recommended for use with shorter stems) mean there is less toe overlap on the smaller sizes and improves the handling on the larger sizes eliminating the need to run a long stem to achieve the correct fit.Size Chart:

Experience the road bike thrill of aluminium performance with impeccable handling and all-day ride comfort. Welcome to the brand-new Kinesis R2. The R2 is a modern-day road bike ideally suited to those looking for good pace in their ride with the added prospect of something a little more adventurous if desired.2x Road Bike for all rider abilities and experienceFor cyclists craving simplicity, reliability and the capability of a 2x DrivetrainClearance for 34c Tyres (brand depending). 30c with mudguardsPannier rack and full mudguard mountsFeaturing Kinesis Rider Fit GeometrySemi-Sloping Top Tube on Smallest sizeThe R2 is built around the same proven frame and fork as our highly acclaimed, group test winning R1 bike which Cycling Plus magazine proclaimed had "Understated class and excellent ride quality" and BikeRadar.com said had instant zing when pressing the pedals". Customer feedback led us to tweak the recipe to cater to even more riders and R2 features a Shimano 2x10 drivetrain, providing plentiful gear range. No matter whether you like to tackle big climbs, bomb fast descents, or get your head down on the flat roads then R2 will get you there with ease.Our experience spans over two decades of aluminium frame design. Drawing on this we created the R2 with a lightweight double butted 6061 Alloy tube blend that delivers a light and responsive ride feel. Good alloy frames have rightly earned their place with a ride quality can easily trump that of cheap carbon frames. Our impeccable weld quality and attention to detail come as standard. Internal down tube cable routing keeps the R2 looking clean and the servicing practical. Rack and guard mounts open up all season s riding, along with ample clearance for bigger tyres with full guards. Up front our custom full UD carbon fork keeps weight low and takes out road buzz whilst feeling direct and accurate at all times. Jumping onboard is easy with our Kinesis Rider Fit Geometry which has been developed for comfortable all-day rides. A simple to understand choice of four sizes ensures a great fit for almost all rider sizes.Size Chart:
