Prestige

This road-focused speed score is primarily about smooth-surface momentum and top-end efficiency. In contrast to speed-optimized builds, this build is shaped by a heavier build, an aero-leaning setup that reduces drag at higher speeds, wider mixed-surface tires that add some drag, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

Climb score: 7.4/10. Within Road bikes, this comes out above average. On climbs, the lowest gear feels very easy. That lowest gear comes out around 23.8 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~86% of them. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. At about 10.8 kg, it’s in a normal range, so gearing matters more than weight swings here. This kind of low gear helps you stay smooth on long or steep climbs. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

On the gravel side of things, an aero score of 5.0/10 means that it’s an all-round aero level so it feels versatile, not single-purpose. What that means on the road is: it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. Different categories trade aerodynamics against comfort and stability—gravel is part of that story. The fit looks fairly neutral, so aerodynamics depends more on the overall design and components than on an extreme position. That tyre width leans toward grip and stability first, with a small aero penalty at speed. Details like hidden cables and a cleaner cockpit can add up to small aero gains at speed. It’s a middle-ground feel: not the fastest possible in the wind, but not holding you back either.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. You get this posture because bars are around 87 mm lower than the saddle, which is a large drop, and the forward stretch measures around 572 mm (long). You'll likely be near 36 degrees of lean.

Main reasons for the fit flexibility result: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts, Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts, and Round, standard seatposts are generally easier to adjust and swap. Overall, it is in the Highly Adjustable bucket. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

This scores 6.0/10 for comfort, so it feels moderately comfortable out on the road. That’s the reason it lands as Balanced. It’s running about 40 mm tires on 700c wheels, and wider tires let you drop pressure a touch, which smooths out rough pavement on rough lanes and gravel patches. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10, torso ~36°), which balances comfort and responsiveness pretty well.

From a value angle, this comes out as a standout deal. 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 36% 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 93% of listings. To anchor it: price €2.099 versus an estimated €3.255 for a similar build. Put simply: this is strong value for what’s included.

This bike is ready for gravel roads while staying efficient on paved stretches. The tire size is unknown in this entry, so the surface range is based on the clearest available signals. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
