The goal for Hotlines is to provide broader geographic coverage across the country, providing customers the opportunity to see bikes, and discuss various model options, with experienced staff.

With the Rondo Hvrt having previously featured on GCN, its easy to see that the brand has enough unique character and engineers smarts to appeal to those looking for bikes to span a variety of ride types.

Designed around the ability to run 650b or large volume 700c tyres, paired with the unique Twintip fork, which provides variable geometry, tweaking the ride characteristic of the bike.

  • The first setting – with steeper angles, smaller trail and a lower front – will be the choice for racing.
  • The second fork setting – which fits big tires and / or fenders – results in a slightly slacker angle, which is ideal for harsh, long, endurance rides.

With stock now arrived, hitting the showrooms of existing dealers, Hotlines are inviting new enquiries, with retailers offered:

  • Stock-in packages are available from as few as three bikes.
  • POS packages are available free of charge, include a bike stand, pull-up banner, doormat and flag.

With Rondo offering stunning looks, category pioneering tech and a range to cover every permutation of drop-bar road and off-road riding, Hotlines see Rondo offering the only brand a retailer needs to cover every aspect of gravel.

In addition to the attainable sign-up levels, Hotlines will also be promoting 3 bikes throughout June and July.

The Ruut CF1 & CF2 are lightweight, fast paced, gravel mile munchers, with an innovative TwinTip fork allowing geometry tweaks to tailor the position for your preferred ride characteristics.

The Bogan ST2 is then the bike-packing purists choice. Steel frame, stable handling and mounts for all the accessory paraphernalia you could ever need.

All three models are available now with additional margin to bump-start peak season sales on key models.
