Re 2 P, or Relaxed, Ergonomic, Efficient Positioning, is the foundation of our Cadent Line. Using this design<br />

philosophy, the <strong>Raleigh</strong> Product Team has developed a line of bicycles which reduce back and neck strain<br />

and pressure on the hands and wrists. The result: A “Heads Up” riding position, allowing Cadent riders to<br />

ride longer with more comfort than on traditional road bikes.<br />

The Cadent is perfect for those looking to participate in fast fitness and event rides, light duty touring,<br />

commuting or just plain recreational riding fun. New cyclists are perfect candidates for the Cadent, as they<br />

will be able to reap the benefits of a lightweight high performance bicycle minus the intimidation that road<br />

racing bikes often present. Older riders, those returning to the sport or riders with health or flexibility issues<br />

will find relief and renewed enjoyment courtesy of Re 2 P.<br />

wrist & hand fatigue.<br />

Longer chain stays<br />

increase the wheelbase for<br />

predictable cornering and<br />

a smoother road feel.<br />

A lower bottom bracket<br />

provides a reduced center of<br />

gravity for enhanced stability<br />

and improved handling.<br />

A taller head tube allows for<br />

a more upright positioning<br />

without resorting to stacks<br />

of headset spacers.<br />
