GTR Team SHIMANO 105 R7000 11s

It leans strongly toward pace compared with similar bikes. When the riding is smooth, speed comes down to resistance and weight, and that's what this rating emphasizes. A few practical factors stand out: 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.

How it climbs: 3.3/10. Within Road bikes, it ranks below average. For hill work, the easiest gear is moderate. The easiest gear works out to about 27.0 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~58% for low-gear climbing. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. A good middle-ground if you want mixed routes that include some hills. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

Scoring 6.2/10 on aero, it sits in the ‘good enough everywhere’ aero zone without demanding big compromises elsewhere. What that means on the road is: it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. Its endurance label helps explain the balance between speed, comfort, and versatility. The fit looks fairly neutral, so aerodynamics depends more on the overall design and components than on an extreme position. Tyres around 25mm fit a faster road setup and usually keep drag in check. Different brands share different amounts of detail, so this uses the most consistent cues that are available. It’s a middle-ground feel: not the fastest possible in the wind, but not holding you back either.

Balanced fit - a neutral road posture that suits most riders. That's driven by the front end is large, with ~94 mm of saddle-to-bar drop, with a long stretch forward at ~555 mm. You'll likely be near 38 degrees of lean.

What drives the fit flexibility here: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts, The front-end is easier to work on, supporting fit tweaks over time. Also, Seatpost info looks fairly neutral, so most fit change comes from cockpit choices. So we classify it as Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Ride comfort is 3.0/10 — on a real ride it feels quite direct. 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 ~38°), which keeps things neutral and easy to live with.

This is the kind of deal people usually notice quickly. 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 spec estimate, it comes in about 23% under the typical level for similar builds. Against similar bikes of the same type and age, it’s usually on the cheaper side, beating about 86% of listings. To anchor it: price €2.153 versus an estimated €2.791 for a similar build. Put simply: this is strong value for what’s included.

This bike is built for smooth pavement and fast road riding. The tire size is around 25 mm, which is typical for fast road setups. Wheel choice (700c) fits the kind of surfaces this bike targets.
