New Porsche bikes: make a bold statement.

Porsche's new Bike RS features a carbon fibre frame.
From September, Porsche will be expanding its Driver’s Selection bicycle range with the addition of two innovative machines, the Bike RS and the Bike S. The RS model features 29-inch wheels, a carbon fibre frame, modular monocoque construction, and a 20-speed Shimano XTR gearshift. Serious stopping power comes courtesy of latest-generation hydraulic Magura disc brakes. Price in Europe: around R60 000.

Then again, the Bike S model is hardly a slouch, It features a rigid, high-performance aluminium 7005 frame, a toothed belt drive system and 11-speed Shimano Alfine IGH gearshift.
