RLT Everything
Susan wanted a bike to replace her Scattante that'd be longer on long road rides, cruise the Iron Horse to Hyak, and take fenders. And the RLT 9 RDO does all that while still being fun.
We put gunmetal grey PDW Full Metal Fenders on, and they look so smooth. It's always great when accents match, and the fenders are the same metallic satin as the stainless steel bottle cages we bolted on.
Susan's other big criteria was tubeless tires. The Compass Barlow Pass is a fabulous all-year speed cushion.
