Shop Talk #23: King Zydeco 2
Shop Talk #23 is all about the new and improved full speed, King Zydeco 2.
This iconic gravel powerhouse has been meticulously remastered, building on the many strengths of its predecessor, now featuring key updates to deliver even more speed and twice the fun—making your ride lighter, faster, happier.

Radically lighter than its predecessor, it delivers enhanced power and control, along with a host of key upgrades.
With its dual response system, the King Zydeco 2 provides optimal handling on challenging terrain. Carbon fibre patches, strategically aligned across the seat cluster, significantly improve control, especially at high speeds on rough surfaces.

Thanks to its integrated handlebars and seatpost, the frame kit is an impressive 400g lighter than the original, offering a more agile and responsive ride.
While the race-winning geometry remains largely unchanged, the slightly extended wheelbase boosts stability, allowing for greater confidence and performance on difficult terrain.

The King Zydeco 2 is the perfect gravel bike for cyclists seeking a competition-level racing machine that pushes them further. It’s built for shorter gravel races under 500 km, high-intensity off-road rides, overnight adventures, and winter training.
