Rockrider ST 530 MDB Review
Ludwig Döhl
You want to ride mainly in light terrain? Then you will love the Rockrider Hardtail. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Rockrider, at 13,8 kg. Thus, the Rockrider Racebike is one of the lighter Racebike that you get for 400 Euro . On very narrow trails, you will love the playful handling. When entering the saddle, the Racebike of Rockrider conveys a balanced seating position. For this, the shifting components are pretty much the best thing you can expect on a complete bike for 400 Euro . Pay attention when selecting your size: the Rockrider Hardtail sizing runs small.
