There's a reason fast road bikes also look fast: all that aero attention to detail actually IS fast. With its integrated handlebar and Advanced Internal Cable Routing, the Agree C:62 is off to a head start in that department. Add carefully profiled tube shapes – honed by our experience building championship-winning time trial and road race bikes – and you're literally onto a winner. Careful carbon lay-up and slender stays ensure you're comfortable even on longer rides, plus 32mm of frame clearance gives plenty of space for wider and faster tyres. Oh, and we included a frame-mounted storage box, too – so you can take food, tools or an extra layer with you.
Rules are rules. A race bike needs to conform in order to qualify for UCI-sanctioned races. But designing a frame that's significantly more slippery through the air, without breaking the rules? That's completely legit. The Litening® AERO lightweight carbon chassis – built with our premium C:68X® material – was designed with extensive use of Computer Fluid Dynamics and real-world wind tunnel testing. The result is a significant 30% reduction in drag, in a fully UCI-compliant frame that elegantly integrates fork, stem, handlebar and seatpost. It's also extremely comfortable and has clearance for tyres up to 28mm. But most important of all, it's very, very fast.
