Redchilli SR2 “Échappée”

Redchilli SR2 Échappée

The Relaxed‑Geometry Carbon Road Bike Designed for Comfort, Ease of Use and Everyday Enjoyment

SR2 “Échappée” is designed for riders who simply want to enjoy cycling. Whether it’s a relaxed Sunday club ride, a social spin for coffee and cake, a solo ride to clear your mind, or a faster outing with friends, the SR2 delivers smooth, confidence‑inspiring performance with comfort at its core.

It’s also a bike that brings genuine value without compromise. With complete builds available for under £2000.00, SR2 opens the door to true Redchilli ride quality — accessible, beautifully balanced, and crafted with the same care and attention found across our entire range.

Redchilli SR2 “Échappée” — Enjoy Every Ride.
Using advanced 3D mandrel technology during construction, the SR2’s internal carbon walls are smoother and more uniform, reducing wrinkles in the layup and creating a stronger, lighter frameset. Combined with a comfort‑tuned carbon layup and a rider position designed for stability and ease, the SR2 helps you ride further for longer with reduced fatigue.

The SR2 is happy to cruise along at an easy pace, yet when you put the power down, it responds with lively, predictable performance. It’s a bike that adapts to your mood and your ride — not the other way around.

With traditional semi‑internal cable routing, the SR2 is easier and more cost‑effective to service. Routine jobs like cable replacement, brake maintenance, or cockpit adjustments are simpler and quicker, meaning less time in the workshop and more time on the road.

SR2 Geometry Overview

  • Redchilli SR2 “Échappée”

The SR2 is built around a comfort‑focused endurance geometry designed to keep you relaxed, stable, and confident on every ride. A slightly taller stack and shorter reach create a more upright position that reduces strain on the back, neck, and shoulders — ideal for newer riders, returning cyclists, or anyone who values long‑distance comfort over aggressive performance.

The wheelbase and front‑end geometry are tuned for predictable, confidence‑inspiring handling on a wide range of road surfaces. Whether you’re riding smooth tarmac, rolling country lanes, or less‑than‑perfect roads, the SR2 delivers a calm, composed ride that helps you feel in control at all times.

The comfort‑tuned carbon layup further enhances the SR2’s easy‑going nature, absorbing road buzz without feeling dull. The result is a bike that feels smooth and forgiving at steady speeds, yet still responds with lively, predictable performance when you decide to pick up the pace.

Key Geometry Traits:

  • Comfort‑focused endurance fit for relaxed, enjoyable riding
  • Taller head tube and shorter reach to reduce fatigue and improve comfort
  • Stable, predictable handling for riders of all experience levels
  • Balanced carbon layup for smoothness with responsive feel
  • Optimised wheelbase for confidence on descents and uneven road

Recommended Rider Height:

Size 47 — 5’0″–5’3″ (152 – 160cm)
Size 50 — 5’3″–5’6″ (160 – 168cm)
Size 53 — 5’6″–5’9″ (168 – 175cm)
Size 56 — 5’9″–6’0″ (175 – 183cm)

The SR2 is perfect if you want a comfortable, confidence‑inspiring road bike that’s easy to live with and enjoyable to ride in all conditions. It’s ideal for riders who value stability, comfort and simplicity over aggressive performance — whether you’re new to road cycling, returning after a break, or simply want a bike that makes every ride feel effortless.

If your riding includes Sunday club runs, social spins for coffee and cake, steady solo miles or the occasional faster outing with friends, the SR2 will feel instantly natural. Its comfort‑focused geometry and smooth carbon layup help reduce fatigue, while the stable handling keeps you relaxed and in control on everything from smooth tarmac to rougher country lanes.

The SR2 is also a great choice if you prefer a bike that’s straightforward to maintain. With semi‑internal cable routing and broad component compatibility, routine servicing is simpler, quicker and more cost‑effective — giving you more time on the road and fewer workshop headaches.

For riders choosing the sub‑£2000 build, the low‑gear drivetrain options offer an additional benefit: easier, more comfortable climbing. Whether you’re building fitness, easing back into cycling or simply prefer a gentler approach to hills, these lower gears help keep your cadence smooth and your effort manageable, making every ride more enjoyable.

If you want a bike that’s comfortable, versatile, easy to maintain and built around your fit and riding style, the SR2 “Échappée” is an excellent match.

During your custom build consultation, we’ll talk through your riding goals, experience and preferred position to ensure the SR2 is the right choice — and that it fits you perfectly.
