Shop Talk #25: Hobootleg Geo
Shop Talk #25 is all about the Hobootleg Geo–our most advanced adventure bike ever.
The Cinelli Hobootleg Geo is the fruit of years of dialogue with some of the world’s most extreme adventurers which led us to understand the specific emerging needs of adventure cyclists to tackle ever more technical, unpaved, single-track routes during their adventures.
The Hobootleg Geo is Cinelli’s most advanced adventure bike ever. It has been designed to take the signature characteristics of our indestructible self-sufficient world-traveller, the original Hobo model, and tweak it for single-track, in particular technical mountain riding.
Key features include flared handlebars, 6-eyelet fork, hydraulic disc brake calliper coupled with a mechanical actuator as well as a geometry that is derived from classic rigid mountain bikes.
All details have been fine-tuned over a three-year testing period with our adventure ambassadors so that the bike is ready to tackle your most extreme rides straight out of the box without further modification.
Are you searching for a reliable adventure bike? Do you want to travel far over unruly terrains? Looking for a comfortable touring bike? Whether you're just getting started with bike touring or thinking about cycling around the world, if you're in search of an adventure touring bike, look no further.
