Spring is Here, Love is in the Air, Here's 5 Bikes We're Infatuated With
Apr 14th 2017
Spring is the perfect season for falling in love, and we've got some introductions for you. Riders, meet your match- Here are 5 bikes we're absolutely in love with this spring.
- Bianchi Infinito CV Chorus : The Infinito was designed for the rider who wants to mix it up on Saturday's fast tempo group ride yet still remain comfortable logging a century on Sunday.
The all-new Infinito CV has expanded its appeal to Pro Tour, Spring Classics racers and the most discerning performance enthusiasts thanks to its exclusive use of Countervail technology.
In addition to Countervail, rider comfort is enhanced by a slightly taller and more relaxed head tube paired with slightly longer chain stays. Steady cornering, quick acceleration, and stable descending - hallmarks of Bianchi racing geometry - are not compromised to achieve a smoother ride. The Infinito CV redesign adds new aero tubing, a tapered head tube, Pressfit 30 bottom bracket, and UTSS-inspired BAT seat stays to its tried and true performance endurance platform.
Infinito literally means "never ending." The number of miles you’ll enjoy aboard an Infinito CV is never ending!
- Scott Plasma Premium : The SCOTT Plasma Premium was designed to not only be aerodynamically sound, but also to be faster WITH a moving rider on it than without. With Sebastian Kienle racking up a European Championship and a World Championship in Kona in the bikes first year, it is safe to say that the Plasma 5 is a cut above the rest. Next level adjustability, fuel storage and integration and now Shimano Di2 make the Plasma 5 not just a bike, but rather a well-oiled machine with one intention and one intention only- the top step.
- BMC Teammachine SLR01 Dura Ace : The requirements for the Teammachine family were defined by the demands of WorldTour racing – a delicate balance of ultra-lightweight for those grueling, above-category climbs, and rapid-fire acceleration for laying down aggressive attacks. In response, BMC engineers outdid themselves and developed BMC's proprietary ACE Technology. With this, they accelerated the design and engineering process and developed 34,000 virtual prototypes in just one year. The end result is the Teammachine SLR – offering the world‘s finest balance of lightweight, stiffness and compliance.
- Stromer Electric ST2 : Ushering a new era for the chic and smart urban lifestyle, the ST2 combines digital connectivity with Swiss efficiency and eco-friendly mobility to deliver a truly ground-breaking e-bike experience. Choose from the Sport or Comfort models to suit your riding style.
The ST2 is available in Sport and Comfort Models. In the Sports Model, you have the choice of a 22, 20 or 17-inch frame. The Stromer ST2 Step Through Comfort Model with its 17-inch frame has a lower top tube for ease of climbing on and off. Both versions are equipped with 20-speed Shimano gears.
The ST2 is available in high-gloss white or matte black, and fitted with an elegant City Kit tailored specially to the requirements of Stromer riders. For example, the alloy fenders and carrier specifi cally match the design of the Stromer.
The individually adapted Supernova headlight with a maximum light intensity of 1,250 lumens and the efficient rear light are integrated elegantly into the bike, to make sure other road users spot you.
