Speedmax CFR Moonshot

For road-style bikes, the score is a proxy for how fast the build feels on normal pavement. The setup that matters most here is a fairly average weight, all-round road tires that balance speed and comfort, a high-end drivetrain that tends to feel crisp under load, and a relaxed posture that gives up some aero efficiency. All else equal, it's set up to reward hard efforts with higher cruising speed.

On steep roads, it comes in at 3.6/10. Within Road bikes, it sits below average. The lowest gear is very tall when the road tilts up. Your easiest gear lands around 48.2 gear inches. This sits at the tough end — easier than only about ~2% of similar bikes. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. Weight is around 9.2 kg, which is typical for this kind of build. This is happiest on flatter terrain; steep stuff will feel demanding. Specs can vary by size and build, and some manufacturer details aren’t always published, so treat this as a strong guide rather than a guarantee.

As a triathlon bike, rated 10.0/10 for aero, with tidier routing up front, it’s built with a ‘race the wind’ mindset and it’s built to feel efficient at pace. The short version is: it’s strongly speed-focused, designed to reduce wind drag when you’re riding fast. A lower, longer stance usually helps you ride more efficiently in the wind once speed picks up. With rims around 85mm deep, the wheels clearly lean toward an aero setup. That rim depth is a classic aero-leaning choice for faster riding. Tyres around 25mm fit a faster road setup and usually keep drag in check. A tidier cockpit and cable routing can help a little once you’re riding quickly. 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.

Race / Pro fit - a very performance-focused fit with more load on core and arms. This is mainly because bars are around 108 mm lower than the saddle, which is a large drop, and the forward stretch measures around 638 mm (very long). You'll likely be near 38 degrees of lean. Front-end spacers are estimated around 6 mm.

Because the bar and stem are separate, changing reach or bar shape is usually straightforward, Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts. Plus, This seatpost design is more specific than a round standard post, which reduces flexibility. So it lands in Moderately Adjustable. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

This scores 2.4/10 for comfort, so it feels harsh on rough surfaces out on the road. So it’s tagged Race-Stiff overall. It’s running about 27 mm tires on 700c wheels, and you feel more of the road texture with narrow tires on chipseal and broken pavement. The posture is race-leaning (posture 8/10, torso ~38°), which puts more weight forward, so you notice more feedback through the hands and saddle.

For the spec, this is priced well into premium territory. 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 comparison, it sits roughly 37% above what similar builds typically cost. Compared with similar bikes, it trends a little expensive (cheaper than about 32% of listings). Quick reference: €13.651 listed versus about €9.957 for a comparable build. Overall, you can likely find better value elsewhere.

This bike is built for smooth pavement and fast road riding. Tires around 28 mm usually mean it’s tuned for smooth-road speed. The wheel setup (700c) supports that direction.
