About the Rose Reveal
The Rose Reveal is a powerful endurance bike from Rose, known for its technical innovations and cool design. The new Rose Reveal boasts even better components than its predecessors, delivering enhanced performance. It offers an ideal power transfer, and has an exceptional value for money.
The Reveal is a long-distance road bike ideal for extensive tours, striking a balance between performance and comfort. With the Rose Reveal, you enjoy a more comfortable riding position compared to pure race bikes, ensuring comfort and speed during long tours.
What Makes the Rose Reveal so Special?
The Reveal features hand-built carbon rims with an asymmetric and bulbous rim profile, minimizing air resistance and reducing steering forces in strong winds. Its damping capabilities surpass those of very rigid race bikes, offering a comfortable ride even after hours in the saddle.
The Reveal's geometry is back-friendly, promoting an upright riding posture. With the wider tire clearance, much like a road bike, longer tours are even more fun for riders giving you the chance to immerse yourself in nature.
Unlike the totally modern Reveal AL, which has an aluminum frame, the Reveal features a carbon frame set, known for its high stiffness and low weight. The Reveal is available in various sub-variants like the Rose Reveal Four and Reveal Six.
The Four series offers models in both low and mid-price ranges, such as the eye-catching Rose Reveal Four Disc Ultegra in Shiny Aurora/Matt Black. Prioritizing comfort on long journeys, the higher-end models include the Reveal Six, with comfort reflected in the component selection. The Reveal Plus Ultegra Di2 is an E-bike option.
The Reveal comes in three versions:
• Rose Reveal AL
• Rose Reveal
• Rose Reveal Plus
Which Components Equip the Rose Reveal?
Components primarily come from SRAM or Shimano, either as mechanical or electronic groupsets. Some models come with a power meter on the crankset, as standard. While rim brakes have lower weight, newer models favor modern and efficient disc brakes, particularly impressive in wet conditions.
For long multi-day trips, the Reveal Plus offers robust support with a Mahle motor. Saddle choices include brands like Selle Italia and Fizik, with saddle posts combining low weight and excellent aerodynamics. Rose's D-Shape saddle post provides enhanced comfort and flexibility in finding the right seating position.
The cockpit's front section typically features a stem at the steerer and handlebars on the stem. The Rose Square stem offers a comfortable position with good aerodynamic properties.
Rose employs two approaches for wheelsets: in house builds or high-quality suppliers. When not using proprietary designs, they often rely on DT Swiss disc wheelsets. Tire options include Schwalbe or Continental, with the Continental Grand Prix 5000 being a popular choice. Tubeless tires reduce rolling resistance and lower air pressures improves grip and ride comfort.
In addition to high-quality components, various accessories like bike pumps, locks, and bottle holders can be attached.
How Good is the Rose Reveal?
We believe Rose Reveal is the best Rose bike... just kidding, we love all Rose bikes.
The Rose Reveal is an endurance bike, a loyal companion for your long rides, offering a blend of comfort and performance. You can choose between an aluminum road bike or a carbon-framed variant. The Reveal Plus is the long-distance E-road bike, powered by a robust motor.
Alternatively, if pure performance is your goal, consider a Rose race bike, like the Rose X-Lite or Rose Xeon. These models prioritize performance. If you prefer off-road adventures and a sportier ride, a gravel bike might be more suited than traditional trekking bikes.
Gravel Bikes combine elements of road and mountain bikes, with frames and handlebars resembling road bikes, and wider tires akin to mountain bikes. Rose offers a high-quality gravel bike, the Rose Backroad, featuring a top-notch design. For motor-assisted riding, explore Rose's E-bike variants, where you’ll find many more popular models on offer.
