The development of the Rogue C6 emerged after David Lupafya noticed how difficult it was to find a bicycle on the market that provided a lightweight, efficient machine to commute, tour, or leisurely ride with with family; at a price point that would not break the bank. As an avid biker and engineer, with an eye for detail and style, David set out to design and manufacture the exact bicycle he was searching for; an extremely reliable, technically advanced machine, comprised of the highest quality components. The result of that is the Rogue C6 Intelligent Lightweight Hybrid Urban Carbon Bicycle.
The components sourced come from the same manufacturers as all of the other major bicycle companies. However several steps have been removed in the supply-chain unnecessary for a small company. This allows the Rogue C6 to be sold for the significantly reduced price of $1,950 rather than $4,000.
