Raleigh Sojourn bike review

Raleigh produced the Sojourn bike in 2008 and can be classified as a Road bicycle.
Sojourn bike is available in many sizes such as 47cm (centimeters), 50cm (centimeters), 53cm (centimeters), 56cm (centimeters), 59cm (centimeters) and 62cm (centimeters).
Raleigh Road Sojourn can be found in one single color which is Kahki.
This bike is equiped with 700 x 35c Vittoria Randonneur tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Freedom CTX 2.3. Raleigh equiped this exact model with Avid BB-5 brakes, Tektro Road levers braking system and JoyTech disc hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Raleigh used Reynolds 520 Butted Chromoly material for the frame. WTB high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Sojourn to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Alloy 4-bolt.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano Sora Triple, 30/39/50 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to SRAM PC-950 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Raleigh, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano SL-BS77 Bar End gear shift levers.
