Description

The Roval Alpinist Cockpit II represents the ultimate fusion of lightweight construction, ergonomic refinement, and vibration-damping performance. Weighing just 270g in the 400x100 size, this integrated bar-and-stem system is built for riders who demand efficiency and comfort during the longest and hardest road rides. Developed using thousands of Retül and Body Geometry fit data points, its carefully sculpted form was engineered to minimize hand fatigue while maintaining a rock-solid feel under power. A redesigned D-shape increases surface area across the tops by 12%, distributing pressure more evenly and providing a more natural resting position for the hands. Compared to the Rapide cockpit, the Alpinist Cockpit II delivers an impressive 28.3% increase in vibration damping, giving riders a smoother and more forgiving platform without sacrificing responsiveness.

Comfort was the central focus in developing the Alpinist Cockpit II. By shaping the tops to better match the natural curve of the palm, riders experience reduced hotspots and greater control even on endurance-length rides. The result is a cockpit that is both lighter and more ergonomic than its predecessor, while also boosting stability and compliance in real-world conditions. Vertical compliance is built into the structure, allowing it to absorb shocks and road buzz when riding in the drops, while remaining stiff and efficient during sprints, climbs, or high-power efforts. Its sleek integration on Specialized bikes adds to its aerodynamic appeal, but with universal compatibility across Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo systems, it can elevate the ride quality of virtually any performance road setup.

From all-out climbing stages to everyday training, the Alpinist Cockpit II sets a new standard for control and ride feel. Offered in a wide range of sizes from 380mm to 440mm widths and 80mm to 130mm stem lengths—all with a 4-degree flare at the drops—it allows riders to fine-tune their fit with precision. This range ensures that every rider can achieve the ideal balance of aerodynamics, stability, and comfort. By combining featherweight construction, advanced ergonomics, and unmatched compliance, the Roval Alpinist Cockpit II isn’t just another cockpit—it’s a pro-level upgrade that delivers the fastest way to the top with comfort like never before.
