This road speed rating is tuned for paved riding - think steady fast tempo and easier acceleration. It trends this way because of narrow road tires that keep resistance low, an aero-leaning setup that reduces drag at higher speeds, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. All else equal, it's tuned to feel quick when you push the speed.

Uphill performance score: 1.8/10. Within Road bikes, it sits near the bottom. You may find yourself pushing a bit more on steeper grades. In numbers, the low gear is roughly 32.4 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~18% versus similar bikes. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. This is happiest on flatter terrain; steep stuff will feel demanding. Specs can vary by size and build, and some manufacturer details aren’t always published, so treat this as a strong guide rather than a guarantee.

Category-wise (aero), an aero score of 9.7/10 means that aero is one of the main points of the design with a clear speed-over-everything bias. What that means on the road is: it’s strongly speed-focused, designed to reduce wind drag when you’re riding fast. Its aero label helps explain the balance between speed, comfort, and versatility. This setup supports a more race-leaning posture, helping you present less of your body to the wind. That tyre width is common on performance road builds and tends to suit aero goals. The faster you ride, the more this aero focus tends to show up in how it holds speed.

Balanced fit - a neutral road posture that suits most riders. This is mainly because the bar sits about 77 mm below the saddle (a moderate drop), and you'll be stretched forward about 553 mm in total (long). Plan for roughly 36 degrees of lean. Spacer height is roughly 10 mm.

That is why it is in the Adjustable bucket. Fit flexibility summary: Standard cockpit parts make it simpler to fine-tune your position over time, The front-end is easier to work on, supporting fit tweaks over time. Another point: Seatpost info looks fairly neutral, so most fit change comes from cockpit choices. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

Ride comfort is 2.2/10 — on a real ride it feels very firm. That’s the reason it lands as Race-Stiff. It’s running about 25 mm tires on 700c wheels, and narrow tires usually mean higher pressure, so more buzz comes through on chipseal and broken pavement. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10, torso ~36°), which keeps things neutral and easy to live with.

This looks like a great buy for the spec on paper. Value is scored 1–10: higher is better value, lower means you’re paying more than similar bikes. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). Based on the parts list, it’s roughly 26% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. Against similar bikes of the same type and age, it’s usually on the cheaper side, beating about 89% of listings. To anchor it: price €5.440 versus an estimated €7.333 for a similar build. Bottom line: you’re getting a lot of bike for the money compared with typical options.

This setup is focused on speed and efficiency on paved roads. The tire size is around 26 mm, which is typical for fast road setups. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
