Bikerumor revolution: Rock Racing Building Belt-Drive Road Bike and a Fixed Gear

Correct me please, but there seems to be an underlying dislike towards Rock Racing?
Disc - I think the apparel looks "sick". Where's the Tour of Britain jersey?
Shane - send some gear over to me and I'll do cheap marketing!!

The team treated some of their riders very badly (Cesar Grajalas and Rahsaan Bahati for instance). They seem to be especially keen on making promises that they do not keep and trying not to pay some of their riders.

Here is an interesting interview with Grajalas:

Review: http://www.cyclenation.co.za/index.php/home/tech-stuff/21-road-tech/123-rock-racing-road-bikes-components-now-online

ock Racing used a blend of M-30s, HM-40 and T700 carbon fibers (various moduli…high being stronger but more brittle, regular being more resilient) laid up with nano-tech resins to “molecularly increase the bond between the carbon and resin.” The design was tuned via vibration analysis with what Rock Racing’s calling Lo-fi and Hi-fi layups, which dampen low and high frequency vibrations respectively. The RX-1 is also available in a Galaxy Gray color.

Proven in de Vuelta Mexico last week.

To get that matchy-matchy look, Rock Racing collaborated with FSA and Lightweight to get some custom components.
