The RONDO IOON is the brand’s first electric gravel bike, featuring a full carbon‐fiber frame adapted from the Ruut platform to integrate the FAZUA Ride 60 mid-drive system. The drive unit delivers 60 Nm of torque (with a 450 W peak output) alongside an internal 430 Wh battery, housed within a reshaped downtube that maintains the signature kinked geometry of RONDO’s flagship model. Initial teasers indicate a high-end spec priced around €10 000, with subsequent updates promising entry-level variants at approximately 33 percent lower cost, and a list of global dealers to be announced prior to market launch.

In recognition of its innovative blend of design and functionality, the IOON CF1 was awarded the 2025 Design & Innovation Award, highlighting features such as the adjustable TwinTip fork, balanced frame geometry for comfort and responsiveness, and a distinctive headtube that reinforces its off-road credentials. Prospective customers can register on RONDO’s dedicated site to receive launch notifications, with official availability details and sizing information to follow via the company’s dealer network.
