What if we used all the experience weve gained serving cyclists for the past 46 years to build a bike made simply for the love of cycling? The Aethos is designed to balance perfect ride quality, extremely light weight, and undeniable style. The Aethos Comp model is no exception.

With low-maintenance Shimano 105 Di2 electronic shifting and hydraulic disc brakes paired with bomb-proof DT Swiss R470 Disc wheels, you have the perfect steed to thrill you on the road.

• The Aethos frame has been designed with the perfect blend of ultimate ride feel, light weight, and style from accelerating up steep grades and descending technical descents, to all-day saddle comfort on even the longest rides, the Aethos hits the nail on the head. But how, you ask? By reinventing the traditional road shape found on bikes of the past, weve subtly altered these shapes to deliver huge gains in stiffness and balance all without compromising weight or durability. Throw in an all-new layup and a process weve perfected over several decades and you have the lightest frame out there (585 grams, S-Works, size 56cm). The Aethos is more than just a new bike, its the first of a new breed.

• An ultralight frame is useless without confidence-inspiring ride characteristics, so we developed the Aethos to have the perfect balance of front and rear stiffness combined with exceptional ride quality. By studying the flex and breathing of carbon fiber, we were able to uncover groundbreaking findings on how forces flow through frames. Just a few pedal strokes and youll realize that this sublime ride sets a new standard.

• Every detail, from the derailleur hangers to the fork expander plug, has been designed with style, weight, and durability in mind. We’ve also equipped it with Roval’s new Alpinist carbon seatpost, saving further weight and improving handling characteristics. All in pursuit of the perfect ride.
