The King Zydeco is Cinelli’s monocoque carbon gravel bike that is simply designed to go fast anywhere. It is considered a pioneer in European gravel riding and is extremely proven with countless professional races under its belt. Its carbon layup is what makes the King Zydeco perfect for long distances on difficult terrain. The fibers are continuously aligned, reducing weight, and properly distributing vibration from the rear wheel. This works extra well thanks to oversized sections on the downtube and headtube. Riders get a carefully engineered frame that keeps the stiffness you need to go fast but adds excellent compliance.
The frame of the King Zydeco is made to adapt. Its dual rake Columbus Fork is designed to create a geometry that is ideal for performance gravel riding and long distance bikepacking adventures. The frame is ready to accept tires up to 700x47c or 650x2.1”. A rivet system is also featured so you can take everything you need for bikepacking. On the downtube, you will find a Kevlar shied that keeps your frame protected from the elements. The Cinelli King Zydeco is the kind of bike you want to take on your longest adventures.
