The compromises

• Wheels not identified from the listing, so we scored them level with basic aluminium rather than guess.
• No power meter, which many bikes at this price include.
• 2021 model year.

What BikeExchange lists, and what it has today

This brand publishes no centimetre equivalence we can verify, so the bike appears only when you pick a letter size.

Where to buy

BikeExchange is the only one of the 22 shops we check that sells this bike.

Price so far

• BikeExchange states an RRP of €4,999 (2% off). That is the shop's claim; we rank on today's price, never on the discount.
