Pre Cursa Aluminium Grass Track Bike – Alpina – Custom

On the road, small changes in drag and tire resistance add up, and this score captures that effect. It trends this way because of a baseline tire-width assumption, aerodynamics that likely help it hold speed once you're rolling, and a basic drivetrain spec that prioritizes practicality over outright performance. In practice, it's more about stability and usefulness than feeling fast.

How it climbs: 1.8/10. Within Road bikes, it lands near the bottom. You may find yourself pushing a bit more on steeper grades. The easiest gear works out to about 32.4 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~18% of them. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. Expect more grinding on climbs than easy spinning. 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.

Looking at it as a track setup, scoring 9.6/10 on aero, aero is one of the main points of the design where aerodynamics is the main lever. What that means on the road is: it’s strongly speed-focused, designed to reduce wind drag when you’re riding fast. Its track label helps explain the balance between speed, comfort, and versatility. A lower, longer stance usually helps you ride more efficiently in the wind once speed picks up. Not every brand publishes the same detail, so this leans on the clearest available specs. If you ride at higher speeds, this is the kind of bike that’s designed to pay you back for that effort.

Sporty fit - a performance-leaning position that encourages speed. You get this posture because bars are around 110 mm lower than the saddle, which is a large drop, and the forward stretch measures around 587 mm (very long). Expect a lean angle around 40 degrees.

This bike's adjustability comes down to cockpit, routing, and seat setup: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts, and The front-end is easier to work on, supporting fit tweaks over time. So it lands in Moderately Adjustable. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

This scores 2.8/10 for comfort, so it feels firm out on the road. So it’s tagged Firm overall. The posture is race-leaning (posture 7/10, torso ~40°), which puts more weight forward, so you notice more feedback through the hands and saddle.

For what you get, the price looks very hard to beat. 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 parts list, it’s roughly 46% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it tends to be better-priced than many, beating about 82% of listings. Quick reference: €973 listed versus about €1.796 for a comparable build. A few manufacturer details aren’t clearly published, so treat this as a best-effort estimate, not a precise verdict. Put simply: this is strong value for what’s included.

This bike is best when your rides stay on clean tarmac. 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.
