Client’s brief:
“I’m looking for a very light bike for my next trip to the Alps and also for riding the steep hills where I live (Vlaamse Ardennen / Pays des Collines). I want it minimalistic, without big flashy logos.”
Say no more.
We went for one of the lightest and most elegant options out there — the Specialized Aethos.
A pure climbing machine, paired with full carbon components and wheels.
We chose the Zipp 303 Firecrest for their perfect balance of price, performance and weight — with a 40 mm profile to keep the speed on the flats without sacrificing efficiency on the climbs.
