It's tuned to feel quick when you push the speed. This road-speed measure focuses on efficient pace on asphalt, where drag and rolling resistance matter most. The biggest contributors are a light setup, 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.

How it climbs: 5.4/10. Within Road bikes, it sits around the middle. For hill work, the easiest gear is very tall. That lowest gear comes out around 32.8 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~9% 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. Weight is around 8.1 kg, which is typical for this kind of build. Expect more grinding on climbs than easy spinning. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

Category-wise (race-focused), with more integrated details, sitting at 8.1/10 for aero, aero intent is clearly part of the package particularly on flatter, wind-exposed sections. Put simply, it’s built with speed in mind, with choices that reduce wind drag once you’re riding faster. The race category also hints at the intent behind the design. A lower front end can help you tuck in a bit, even if the bike itself isn’t built as an aero specialist. Tyres around 25mm fit a faster road setup and usually keep drag in check. Details like hidden cables and a cleaner cockpit can add up to small aero gains at speed. On flatter roads and into headwinds, this kind of setup often feels noticeably quicker than more comfort-first designs.

Sporty fit - you'll lean forward more and feel ready to push the pace. It feels this way because handlebar height is roughly 98 mm lower than the saddle (large drop), and how far you'll be stretched forward is about 574 mm (long). Plan for roughly 38 degrees of lean.

Why this fit flexibility rating: Because the bar and stem are separate, changing reach or bar shape is usually straightforward, Less routing complexity makes swaps and adjustments more practical; A standard round seatpost size gives you many options for fit and replacements. Net result: Adjustable.

Comfort comes out to 2.2/10, which usually translates to a stiff-feeling ride. So it’s tagged Race-Stiff overall. It’s running about 25 mm tires on 700c wheels, and you feel more of the road texture with narrow tires on chipseal and broken pavement. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10, torso ~38°), which keeps things neutral and easy to live with.

This looks like strong value without any tricky caveats. 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 91% of listings. To anchor it: price €2.099 versus an estimated €3.290 for a similar build. Bottom line: you’re getting a lot of bike for the money compared with typical options.

This bike is built for smooth pavement and fast road riding. The tire size is unknown in this entry, so the surface range is based on the clearest available signals. The wheel setup (700c) supports that direction.
