Raleigh is arguably one of the most recognised bicycle companies in the world. Dating back to its UK inception the late 1800's and producing childhood dream bikes such as the Chopper and Burner, they have a rich history and have played a major part in the world of cycling. Their current models have a certain nostalgic aura about them and they are of excellent value and quality.
Rush-hour mania. Drastically late buses. Inexplicable traffic jams. A never-ending supply of roadworks. Whatever the gripe, whatever the cause, there’s a lot not to love about your morning commute. But there doesn’t have to be.
Introducing the Pioneer Grand Tour: your fast-pass to freedom. To shortcuts and detours. To scenic routes and coffee stops. To rediscovering both the city and countryside– one ride at a time.
‘Grand’ perfectly sums up the components of our top-of-the-range Pioneer. With 24-speed Shimano gears, this fully equipped bike gives you everything you need to tackle even the biggest hills – no sweating necessary. The strong, exceptionally lightweight aluminium frame is paired with a steel trekking fork, making it easy to go from tarmac to trail in one fell swoop. Full mudguards help protect your favourite jeans from unpredictable British weather, and a handy kickstand stops your pride and joy from toppling while you stop and admire the view. Basically, the Pioneer Grand Tour has everything you need to conquer the urban jungle – whether that’s for your daily commute, or simply pottering down into town to the deli.
This classic hybrid bike is tailor-made for zipping through city streets – but don’t think that means it’s not trail-ready. With high-capacity 40c tyres and double-wall aluminium wheels, the Grand Tour is ready for wherever your ride takes you – from picturesque canal paths to off-road trails.
Designed for the city. Born for adventure.
Features
40c Reflective Tyres
When you’re ready to swap the tarmac for the trail, the wide 40c tyres have a tread pattern that’s perfect for light trails and canal paths. And with a reflective strip around the rim, you’ll always be seen on the roads – whatever the time of year.
24 Speed
With 24-speed Shimano gears, this fully equipped bike gives you the power to tackle Everest-sized hills – no sweating necessary.
