Our take
This Bruce Gordon Rock & Road Touring Bike is a real classic, perfect for someone seeking a vintage steel touring machine. The 21-inch (53cm) frame and 700C wheels are practical for a range of riders, and the 24-speed Deore XT setup suggests a reliable drivetrain. I appreciate the inclusion of a BG Rear Rack and bottle cage, which are essential for touring. Being a vintage bike from the late 80s/early 90s, the caliper brakes and bar-end shifters are true to the era, offering a distinct riding experience. The steel frame ensures durability, though it might not be as light as modern alternatives. This bike is definitely for a rider who appreciates its heritage and touring capabilities.
