SL ROAD
The SL Road is cycling stripped down to arguably its purest form. Sleek, light and simple, its sole purpose is to transport you from A to B with the minimum of fuss. Featuring an aluminium frame built from light, strong, double-butted tubes for the best combination of strength, comfort and durability, we matched this efficiently pared-down chassis with a rigid aluminium fork for nimble handling and low weight. Reliable, slick-shifting Shimano 2x8-speed gears keep working smoothly through all weathers, thanks partly to internal cable routing and its ability to reduce wear and tear. And powerful hydraulic disc brakes mean you'll always be in control, so you can stop safely in all weathers. It may lack bells, whistles and other adornments, but the SL Road's simplicity is its raison d'être. Fast from point to point, whether on your daily commute or a training ride on country roads, it represents both great value and minimalist cool. What more could you need?

GEOMETRY
The SL Road's aluminium frame is made from extremely light double-butted tubes, giving the best combination of low weight, superb strength and great ride quality. The frame's inherent rigidity and low weight help convert energy at the pedals into efficient forward propulsion... which means speed! For the lightweight fork's design, we took our inspiration from our racing bikes. The æro shape is exceptionally stiff for accurate steering, and it even looks fast to match the bike's purity of purpose. We also routed the cables inside the down tube, adding to the bike's sleek looks and reducing wear and tear in the process - because you should be able to spend your time riding your bike, not maintaining it.
