An aerodynamic bike that reduces wind resistance is great, but a road bike must also (and obviously) be as light as possible. So, with the Litening\u00ae AIR, we\u2019ve worked with professional riders from the peloton to develop a frame using our C:68X\u00ae carbon that combines the best of both worlds. Weighing around 799 g for a medium-sized frame, it is light enough to easily build a 6.5 kg bike that complies with UCI standards, but, thanks to details such as fully internal cable routing, carefully designed tube profiles and our IC Aero one-piece carbon cockpit, it remains aerodynamic and comfortable for long days in the saddle. The weight savings achieved across the whole of a traditional racing bike are easily noticeable and have a real impact on your performance!<\/p>\n
When we set out to develop an ultra-light racing bike, the Litening AIR C:68 SLX was exactly what we had in mind. Capable of cutting through the air, comfortable enough for one-day races and weighing around 799 g for a medium-sized model, this is the UCI-compliant speed machine you\u2019ve been looking for to help you maximise your performance. The SRAM Red AXS groupset, with integrated power metre, and the brakes handle stops and starts with precision and predictability, whilst the Newmen Streem Climbing 35\/38 Vonoa carbon wheels, fitted with 29 mm Schwalbe Aerothan tyres, help you maintain total control even as your speed increases. The ultimate racing machine? You be the judge.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
It is entirely fitting that our lightweight, aerodynamic time trial bike features a \u2018liquidblue\u2019n\u2019crisscross\u2019 colour scheme \u2013 a liquid blue and criss-cross pattern \u2013 with the grid motif evoking both the contour lines and the underlying C:68X\u00ae carbon structure. But it\u2019s the details that really matter. Designed to propel you to the front of the pack, this bike is the one you\u2019ve earned after hours of riding and countless kilometres covered. It\u2019s ready when you are.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":31181,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[1766],"product_cat":[1747,1746,1756],"product_tag":[117],"class_list":["post-31180","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-cube","product_cat-bike-cube-2027","product_cat-cube-2027","product_cat-road-bike-cube-2027","product_tag-cube","first","onbackorder","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
