Know before you buy
This bike is designed for performance-oriented road cycling. It excels in competitive racing, fast group rides, and long, spirited training sessions where aerodynamics and power transfer are priorities.
The electronic 105 Di2 system provides faster, more consistent gear changes with a simple button press, eliminating the need for cable tension adjustments. It is generally more reliable over time and requires less maintenance than traditional mechanical derailleurs.
Yes. While the frame is engineered for stiffness and speed, the carbon layup is designed to dampen road vibration. It balances the rigidity needed for sprinting with enough compliance to keep you comfortable during longer endurance efforts.
Decathlon provides a 5-year warranty on the carbon frame and fork. This covers manufacturing defects, giving you peace of mind regarding the structural integrity of the bike's core components.
The bike is optimized for aerodynamic efficiency, but it remains stable and predictable. While deep-section wheels (if equipped) can be affected by wind, the frame geometry itself is balanced to ensure confident handling and precise steering in varied conditions.
