Planet X Pro Carbon Disc Campagnolo Chorus

On asphalt, it's mainly a question of resistance and efficiency, and that's what the score summarizes. In comparison with more aero-focused bikes, this build is shaped by a fairly average weight, an aero-leaning setup that reduces drag at higher speeds, narrow road tires that keep resistance low, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

Climb score: 5.7/10. Within Road bikes, it lands around the middle. On climbs, the lowest gear feels tall. The easiest gear works out to about 30.4 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~35% of them. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. At about 8.6 kg, it’s in a normal range, so gearing matters more than weight swings here. It can climb, but you’ll likely prefer smoother pacing on longer hills. Real-world feel depends on setup and size, and some details aren’t always listed, so this is best seen as a well-informed estimate.

Category-wise (race-focused), scoring 7.3/10 on aero, it’s aero-aware without going extreme so it won’t hold you back on normal fast riding. Put simply, it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. Its race 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. In practice, it’s a balanced setup: decent in the wind without demanding big compromises elsewhere.

Sporty fit - more tuck for efficiency, but still manageable for many riders. It feels this way because you get a large drop: roughly 99 mm from saddle to bar, plus about 562 mm of stretch forward (long). You'll likely be near 39 degrees of lean. As a race-oriented bike, it encourages a lower, faster position.

Why this fit flexibility rating: A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width; Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts. So we classify it as Adjustable.

This scores 2.2/10 for comfort, so it feels harsh on rough surfaces out on the road. So it’s tagged Race-Stiff overall. 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 ~39°), which balances comfort and responsiveness pretty well.

For the spec, this feels competitively priced. 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). On the spec estimate, the price is close to what we’d expect for a comparable build. Among comparable bikes, it sits around the middle on price (cheaper than about 64% of listings). To anchor it: price €3.494 versus an estimated €3.684 for a similar build. Overall, it looks like a strong buy in its category.

This setup is focused on speed and efficiency on paved roads. Tires around 25 mm usually mean it’s tuned for smooth-road speed. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
