A bike that reduces wind resistance is great, but a race bike should also – of course – be as light as possible. So, with the Litening AIR, we worked with pro peloton riders to develop a frame from our premium C:68X® carbon that combines the best of both worlds. At around 799g for a mid-sized frame it's svelte enough to easily build a UCI-compliant 7.1kg bike, but – with details like Full Internal Cable Routing, careful tube profiles and our IC Aero One-Piece Carbon Cockpit – it's still slippery through the air, incredibly good at translating pedalling into forward progress, and comfortable for long days in the saddle. The overall weight saving on a classic road bike is a difference you can clearly feel – and see in your results!
If you're riding a bike with a frame built from our premium C:68X® carbon, you might as well show it off. That's why there are hints of carbon showing through the Litening AIR C:68X Race's devastatingly understated blackpearl'n'black paint finish: a clue to the pure performance that lurks within. Backed up with race-proven components, it's everything you need to put you ahead.
