THE RADIVIST GOES DEEP ON THEIR NEW REVEL ROVER REVIEW

The Revel Rover, launched in early 2022, is Revel’s first foray into a realm of bikes without their award-wining CBF full suspension platform. The product designers at Revel have deep roots in drop bar bike design, too, so the Rover is a logical next step in the brand’s expansion into a space that Revel was confident they could make a big splash in.

The Radivist’s Take

The Rover is the first carbon chassis I’ve ridden that feels smooth and doesn’t leave me fatigued after rough and rugged roads. This has a lot to do with the fork itself, which flexes a whole lot considering its robust appearance. Even with the 40mm Maxxis Rambler tires, pumped up to 25-30psi, there is a noticeable ride quality happening. For instance, you can watch the front fork flex on washboard descents and feel the bottom bracket sway ever-so-slightly on steep climbs.— John Watson, The Radivist
