It’s been a year since we revealed our new prototype Pace RC295 and since then we’ve been putting in the hard miles, sweating the details, and buffing the design for production. And now we’re ready- tooled up and fired up with the first production frame out of the mould and ready for assembly with our latest 2020 build kits. Like our other framesets, the RC295 will now be available as an Ultimate Rolling Chassis, Factory Ultimate complete bike build (as well as a Custom Build Option) and of course a Frame only option but within that frame kit we thought that a premium product like this should come fully loaded.
We’ve equipped our Pace frame with the Rockshox Deluxe RT3, factory tuned to complement the kinematics of the ‘295 with the shock and also featuring an Offset Bushing to allow adjustment of the bikes ride height and compliment your choice of 29er or 27.5”+ rear wheel.
The frame also comes equipped with a top drawer finishing kit- Thru Axle from DTSwiss, Seatclamp from Hope and a complete spare Pace Gear Hanger Kit.
For protection, we’re also including a full-size carbon fibre frame protector for the underside of the mainframe custom moulded by Rockguardz, plus a pair of Armour Tubes to protect the cables and hoses beneath the BB.
All the above package is available for £1899. Pre-order open now. Delivery: All sizes due in January.
Colour: Gloss raw carbon finish with a matte night khaki stickers (under a matte lacquer). Only available in this colour.

Funny how when those came out last year everyone was like "they're mad! That thing is unrideable! Steering too slack! BB too low to pedal!"
But I agree that companies need to put more emphasis on actual & effective STAs
My ibis mojo was always bashing rocks etc even at correctly set up trail sag of 25-30%
Good for PACE Cycles for sticking in business and having a go as this looks interesting compared with so many pricier option
Maybe I’ll just find myself looking at their site sooner rather than too late ;-)
,...
So you are saying that if you ride in the Peaks (Beast, Spud Alley, Cavedale, Stanage Edge, just to name a few), you don't have a great chance of something hitting your BB tube, either yourself dropping something big or a rock strike? Maybe you just ride smooth blue lines...
Faiks to understand ownership of a industrially built UK old skool bike brand
:/ if that’s the remake then f no
But point break original was freakin epic!
Plus we’re on a pedal biking forum not a f stinky bum i dint wash my eco hair forum
Sad bastad for down voting me lol
** notable difference is that the pivot for the link and the bottom shock mount are not concentric...must be enough to escape the patent lawyers
