Product Description:
  • Introducing the Rogue hybrid bicycle - The Milo. Bearing the name of the Milo-Grogan neighborhood in Columbus, Ohio, home of Rogue HQ and where this bike originated, this single-speed commuter bike features a lightweight, American-made chromoly steel frame and fork, a modern belt-drive system, reliable disc brakes, and versatile urban tires for both on- and off-road adventures. In an era where most bikes are built overseas, The Milo stands out. True to Rogue principles, it embodies the best of 21st-century engineering and a commitment to quality components and craftsmanship.
  • The Chromoly frame is completed with a durable matte black powdercoat finish. This provides corrosion resistance in combination with a superior, smooth matte finish. Once finished, the head tube receives a Rogue Deuce logo badge. The Rogue Deuce has been a Rogue icon and part of the Rogue story since day one and still sits proudly on display in front of Rogue HQ to this day.
  • The Milo frame is constructed from Chromoly, or chrome molybdenum, known for its superior corrosion resistance, shock absorption, and responsiveness. Due to its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, Chromoly is widely used in industries where speed and performance are paramount. This U.S.-made Chromoly steel frame offers a responsive flex, creating a smooth and superior ride.
  • Cable-actuated front and rear disc brakes are paired with 160mm stainless steel rotors for smooth and reliable stopping power, whether on a busy city street or an off-road adventure. Cable-actuated brakes are optimized for easy maintenance and adjustments without sacrificing all-terrain, stop-on-a-dime performance.
  • The wheels of the Milo are assembled in-house using the Astral Outback alloy rim. The Outback is designed for long-distance rides on dirt or pavement and uses an asymmetric rim design that improves spoke tension balance by up to 30%. The hand built wheel is then paired with Maxxis Hookworm 29" high-volume tires. The bead-to-bead tread on this urban tire ensures durability, traction, and balance for on and off-road cycling.

"Coulter Ventures, LLC (dBa Rogue Fitness), are currently navigating multiple lawsuits regarding violation of wage and labor laws, and retaliation against employees for opting in to those class actions suits violating labor and wage laws."

Yeah sounds like a great place to work.

It's a good looking bike, but curious as to why anyone would ever want a single speed...

Very little maintenance. And this one has a belt drive, so it's nearly zero maintenance. If you can't get up hills, that doesn't mean you need more gears, it just means you need STRONGER LEGS.

25 lbs is heavy for Cr Mo with single speed belt drive. The downtube appears to be oversized to improve stiffness. Unfortunately, this single speed bike isn't geared for off road use.

My Tange One Cr Mo butted and fully brazed lugged 23" Centurion Ironman is just over 22 lbs with Shimano 105 equipment and drop bar.

Was actually just considering getting an air bike, so may try this instead. Reviews don't look super promising though.

Gorgeous frame with top-notch American welding—but somewhere between the bench press and the boardroom, they decided a heavy single-speed steel bike was a good idea. Maybe stick to what you know: barbells and bumper plates, not bikes.

Lighter weight, less and easier maintenance. If you're in a city without hills it's a nice option. Good for loaning if someone wants to use it.

Its belt drive just like the Rogue echo bike. Probably great for getting in a workout.

Remember the reviews aren't likely at the $500 price point.
