Classic hot rod flames. They’re classic. The paint job features eye catching paint fades in in the flame tongues. The glossy reds, yellows, and oranges are supported by black. Combine it with our high modulus Battle Axe SL carbon frame and you’ll be setting personal bests. The bike built weighs under 14lbs! SRAM Red, Thomson, FSA, and Easton components. The wheels are carbon tubulars, so you have the added benefit of the wonderful ride qualities tubulars offer.
At no point did I feel like the bike was wasting any of my energy. Descending is confidence inspiring on this bike. The first real descent I rode was about 3 miles long with the last 1/3 of a mile between 15-18% with tight twisting turns and it felt like I was on rails. I felt like I looked like a moto GP racer navigating a chicane. I was able to move the bike under me effortlessly and lay it from side to side quickly and with kind of poise that can get you in trouble! ~BikeRumor Review
