Specialized Aethos Pro Force eTap AXS Carbon Road Bike 2023 in Maroon

Season:2023

Brand:Specialized

Code:321745330990

The Aethos line promises three things, exceptional light weight, perfectly-balanced ride characteristics, and undeniable style, and the Aethos Pro is no exception. Aethos: billions of calculations in the pursuit of one thing, the perfect ride. Spec'd with Sram's intuitive Force eTap AXS that delivers clean crisp shifts, and Rovals Alpinist wheels mated to DT swiss 350 hubs and your left with a no-fuss build that delivers mile after mile.

The Aethos frame has been designed with the perfect combination of ultimate ride feel, light weight, and style—from accelerating up steep pitches and descending technical descents, to all-day saddle comfort on even the longest coffee rides, the Aethos hits the mark. But how, you ask? By reinventing the traditional road shape found on bikes of the past, they’ve subtly altered these shapes to deliver massive gains in stiffness and balance, all without affecting weight or durability. Pair that with an entirely new layup and process that they’ve perfected over multiple decades and you have the lightest frame out there (585 grams, S-Works, size 56cm). The Aethos is more than just a new bike, it’s the first of a new breed.

Every detail, from the derailleur hangers to the fork expander plug have been designed with style, weight, and durability in mind. They’ve also spec’d it with Roval’s all-new Alpinist carbon seatpost and wheels, further saving weight and improving ride characteristics. Everything in pursuit for the perfect ride.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Hydraulic Disc Brakes:Accurate and powerful braking capacity to keep you in control in all weather conditions.
  • Carbon Frame: A featherweight frame is useless without confidence-inspiring ride characteristics, which is why they’ve developed the Aethos to have the perfect balance of front and rear stiffness combined with exceptional ride quality. By studying the flexing and breathing of carbon fiber, Specialized were able to discover groundbreaking findings about how forces flow through frames. Just a few pedal strokes and you’ll realize this sublime ride sets a new standard.
  • Sram 12 speed:Reliable, with a wide range of gears for all-terrain – even the biggest of hills.
