THE RCC11 – WOW!!! AN A-GRADE CARBON BIKE AT AN ENTRY LEVEL PRICE





The RCC11 is the newest edition to the Trigon stable and has been designed to get a cycling new comer or the experienced rider on a high quality carbon bike for a really reasonable price. The RCC11 has been constructed with the same high quality Japanese carbon as the rest of the range, however we have introduced aluminum connections to help speed up manufacturing and reduce cost. This bike is equipped with full carbon tubing with Encrim™ fusion technology for a flexible frame geometry platform and various tubing build options. Coupled with the New Obllix™ Venom wishbone for performance, comfort and style.
Equipped with Sram Apex and Intrepid 24mm wheels the bike retails at $2499 making the RCC11 exceptionally good value.
NOTE: For a limited time only the RCC11 comes complete with a package deal valued at $250 absolutely free!! Contact your local retailer or Trigon Australia for further details.
We recently lent an RCC11 to Noel Phillips of Gold Coast Triathlete to test and give his opinion of how the bike stacks up against the rest of the Trigon range and the competitors...

Sunday Morning Test Ride – RCC11 Entry Level Trigon Noel Phillips
“Having ridden lots of bikes of various qualities over the years, I was very surprised when I was given the opportunity to ride a RCC11, just how good this would be.
After putting it together on Saturday afternoon, I expected the bike to be perhaps not quite as responsive and fast as I found out on Sunday.  The bike is lively, moves in a straightforward direction when applying pressure to the pedals and me being 90kg was impressed that the bike has very little sideways movement if any.  The bike descends like a bike twice the price and I could recommend this bike to anyone who is on a budget of around the $2,500 mark.  I can only imagine that the bikes above this in the Trigon range would be equal to anything in the marketplace, as this bike left a lasting impression.  So much so, that I bought it off Trigon to use myself.
PS. the bike carries SRAM Apex components, which did not miss a beat!”
