2011 Dawes HORIZON PLUS Touring Bike
We have touring bikes that satisfy the traditionalist as well as those seeking something a little more cutting edge. Take the Galaxy range for instance, using tubesets built with the excellent air hardening qualities from Reynolds or our own butted titanium tubesets for ultra lightness and unrivaled comfort. All are fitted with the highest quality equipment to safely escort you to your destination.
The Horizon Plus is a new member to the Dawes team and steps up to the mark with some subtle but brilliant features like a Reynolds 520 Chromoly frame, chromoly fork, brand new Shimano Alivio 27 speed gears. The Horizon Plus is designed to be strong, comfortable and the mile eating workhorse that everyone expects from a Dawes touring bike.
