"Tout Terrain designs bikes for a cycling lifestyle for both daily transportation use and extended tours. Each bike is designed to be comfortable and durable whether taking a bike trip around the globe or pedaling to the office each day," said Neil Flock, the owner of Cycle Monkey. "Tout Terrain's innovative design features make the bikes stand out, and the models with Rohloff hubs with Gates Carbon Drive belts create expedition-ready, low-maintenance packages."
