Rules are rules, and a race bike needs to conform to them in order to qualify for UCI-sanctioned races. But making a bike significantly more slippery through the air, within the rules? That’s legit. The Litening C:68X’s lightweight carbon chassis – built with our premium C:68X material – was designed with the help of extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing. The result is a 30% reduction in drag, in a fully UCI-compliant frame that elegantly integrates frame, fork, stem, handlebar and seatpost. It’s also light and comfortable, power meter-ready and has clearance for tyres up to 28mm. But most of all, it’s very, very fast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Built around our high-tech carbon \u00e6ro chassis with 30% drag reduction, the Sram Red AXS wireless groupset puts precise gear changes and powerful braking at your fingertips. A brand-new Swiss DT ARC wheelset with a new \u00e6ro profile matches the frame’s wind-cheating credentials perfectly.
