Meet the Rainier!
This is the bike that everyone has been clamoring for! The 2008 Rodriguez Rainier is perfect for the Randenneur cyclist, or the commuter who doesn't need a front rack set up. Not really a touring bike, but a sport bike that comes with full fenders installed, and easily accommodates a rear rack. The bike is just about as light as our Sport and SL models, but offers a little more versatility.

Naming the bike was easy. Mt. Rainier is part of everyday life here in Seattle. We have a famous ride every year called the RAMROD (Ride Around Mount Rainier in One Day). You can see the huge volcano from just about everywhere if you live in the Northwest. A ride around Mt. Rainier in One Day (RAMROD) calls for the rider to be prepared for rain, sun, wind, calm, rain, sun, wind, calm, rain......you get the idea.

This bike is light, fast and versatile! But can it get even lighter or more versatile you ask?

For the weight conscious we're offering the Rainier Lite...an S3 version of the bike at a $600 upgrade.

For the well travelled to be rider we're offering the Rainier travel version ($700 upgrade) that uses S&S couplings and fits in a 26" X 26" suitcase.

What about the frame you ask? Of course the Rainier features American made double butted True Temper OX Platinum tubing. This provides a classic light weight 'steel feel' . We offer a selection of Campagnolo or Shimano equipment, all with a triple crankset, and handbuilt wheels with a 3-year warranty . It's a comfortable, versatile bike that is perfect for a full day's ride.

Rodriguez Exclusive! All of our bikes are offered in 15 production sizes . If you don't fit one of our production sizes, a custom size frame in any model is just $200 extra. Plus we are offering every bike in our line-up with any choice of 4 different paint options at no extra charge. Custom paint jobs or colors are also available. If that's not enough, we have 4 different decal options to choose from as well.

Our bikes are unique as our customers... they love our bikes, and we love them!
