Product Details
The Vamoots RCS is the ultimate modern road bike, built for riders who refuse to be limited by terrain. Designed for all-day comfort and exceptional versatility, it seamlessly transitions from smooth pavement to chip-seal, cobbles, and even smooth dirt roads. Whether you're pushing the pace on long endurance rides or exploring roads less traveled, the RCS delivers a ride quality that inspires confidence and adventure.
Rooted in the Vamoots lineage, the RCS carries forward the legacy of the Vamoots, Vamoots SL, Vamoots RSL, and Vamoots CR, while introducing a more relaxed geometry and higher volume tire clearance. This thoughtful modernization enhances stability and control without sacrificing the classic road feel that Moots is known for. The result is a road bike that’s as smooth and efficient on fast tarmac as it is capable on variable surfaces.
At the heart of the RCS is its meticulously crafted frame, featuring a proprietary RSL double-butted tubeset for the perfect balance of lightweight performance and durability. The bike’s newly designed fast-back seat stays and 3D-printed dropouts further refine its ride quality, improving compliance while maintaining precise handling. Paired with a model-specific fork optimized for 32mm tires, the RCS is built for superior comfort and control.
Beyond its smooth ride and responsive handling, the Vamoots RCS is designed for longevity and serviceability. Its English threaded bottom bracket ensures long-term reliability, making it a bike that will stand the test of time. Every detail is engineered with purpose, from the precision alignment of its 3D-printed flat-mount disc brake dropouts to its clean and timeless aesthetic.
With the Vamoots RCS, you don’t have to choose between speed and versatility. This bike is built for riders who want to push boundaries, explore further, and embrace every road surface with confidence. Whether tackling epic road adventures or simply enjoying the perfect ride, the RCS is ready for anything.
