Ross for most of their life made cheaper bikes that were sold in bike shops. We had them in our shop. When they moved to Allentown, PA , they made a real effort to improve their reputation. They hired Tom Kellogg to build their high end bikes. Then they offered some better bikes then offered some better bikes to fill in the gap between their legacy bikes and Signature bikes. I don't know where this bike fits in however, it could be a decent bike
They also jumped into mountain bikes early with some decent bikes and mountain bike specific marketing. These can be deals in the used market because of Ross's lower end reputation.
