FLITE 747

It's not at the sharpest end of outright speed. In a road context, the speed rating is about holding pace with less effort once you're up to speed. The score is largely shaped by wider mixed-surface tires that add some drag, aerodynamics that help it hold speed once you're rolling, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

On steep roads, it comes in at 3.8/10. Within Road bikes, it lands below average. The low gear should feel friendly on most hills. The easiest gear works out to about 25.5 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~72% for low-gear climbing. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. It won’t be the absolute best climber, but it won’t hold you back on most climbs either. Build kits can differ by size and spec level, and not every detail is published by every brand, so use this as a practical guideline.

Seen as a race-focused option, with a 6.9/10 aero score, it’s a practical middle ground so it feels ‘quick enough’ without being a pure aero build. The short version is: it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. The race tag is a useful clue for how wind efficiency ranks among the priorities. In practice, it’s a balanced setup: decent in the wind without demanding big compromises elsewhere.

Sporty fit - a performance-leaning position that encourages speed. Mostly geometry-based, with a small category-based estimate.

In Road, This front-end is not locked into a one-piece system, which helps adjustability. Another point: Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability. That is why it is in the Adjustable bucket. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

This scores 4.0/10 for comfort, so it feels more responsive than cushy out on the road. That’s why it’s labeled Balanced. It’s running about 35 mm tires on 700c wheels, and extra tire volume helps mute vibration and small bumps on chipseal and broken pavement. The posture is race-leaning (posture 7/10), which puts more weight forward, so you notice more feedback through the hands and saddle.

For the spec, this feels competitively priced. The value score is 1–10. Higher means better value for money; lower means the price is high for what you get. 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 9% under the typical level for similar builds. In its peer group, it tends to be better-priced than many, beating about 76% of listings. To anchor it: price €2.799 versus an estimated €3.085 for a similar build. Overall, it looks like a strong buy in its category.

This bike is road-focused, but it’s more forgiving on bumpy pavement. Tires around 35 mm add comfort and grip when the road surface breaks up. Wheel choice (700c) fits the kind of surfaces this bike targets.
