Choosing the right size bike
You should choose the size of your bike based on your height, as well as your build (arm span and leg length).
This bike has been optimised for women's bodies.
XS 155 165 cm
S 165 173 cm

If you are between sizes, the smaller size will give you a more athletic position, while the larger size will give you a more comfortable position.
Frame
The frame's geometry allows you to start riding in comfort. With the steering socket higher and the top tube shorter than a classic road frame, you'll have a more upright and less hunched position on your bike.

T6 aluminium sloping frame with semi-integrated headset.
Fork
The carbon fork is more lightweight and offers more precise directional control.
The aheadset 1⅛" steerer tube makes the steering assembly strong and rigid.
The fork has an insert on each side, so you can attach certain pannier racks and mudguards.
Maximum load on the fork: 9kg
