Hit the gas and the 2014 Kestrel RT1000 SL will respond with agility, sweeping though the corners with confidence and roaring up the road with aerodynamic efficiency. Yet, power and efficiency means little if you're not comfortable. Kestrel knows carbon, as the first manufacturer of an all-carbon frame, and they've put decades of experience into making the RT1000 one of the smoothest riding bikes on the market. The RT1000 was built with an endurance geometry that employs a longer head tube compared to some full-race machines, keeping you in a comfortable position you can maintain as the miles add up. The new Shimano Ultegra Di2 11sp takes care of the electric drivetrain for lightning quick shifts. A set of aerodynamic Oval Concepts wheels, wrapped in Vittoria tires, completes this bike, making it fit to fly.

Outside Magazine’s “Bike of the Year” , the RT series continues to evolve into a lighter, faster machine. The RT1000 features aero-sculpted, sleek design decked out with Shimano Ultegra Di2 11sp and Oval Concepts components providing the rider with a comfortable ride while delivering maximum speed. Internal cable routing, a semi-sloping top tube, and a semi-integrated head tube place the RT1000 ahead of the pack.
