The compromises

• Mechanical shifting, at a price where electronic groupsets are common.
• Basic aluminium wheels.
• No power meter, which many bikes at this price include.
• 2024 model year.

Your size

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

Other shops list what looks like this bike, but we cannot confirm it is the same build, because the model year or drivetrain is not settled, so we do not compare their prices.
