You don’t read a lot about 8-speed road bikes in the magazines, but this level of components make up a big part of the global market share and rack up an absurd number of miles every year. Maybe you’re putting together a commuter bike, a training bike for bad weather, or you just want the simplicity of an 8-speed system. Either way, R8 is a smart choice for the full road bike experience without the pretense.
