So, if all goes well, I'm moving toward picking my (new to me) R3T this week. While pondering this and getting back into riding, I was wondering how the Rocket 3 performs in gravel? Obviously, there's different types of gravel so I'll just leave it open.
I had a Hardly once, and it did pretty good on gravel roads, (I think because it had a faily low center of gravity and I kept the speed up). My Valk on the other hand, not so good...I think it had to do with harder and narrower front tire and of course a higher center of gravity.
All bikes are different, and eveyone has a different technique....I'm interested in other rider's thoughts and experiences about riding on gravel roads or through construction zones with the R3.
Thanks
