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!
The competition won't see you coming. That's not just because the Litening AIR C:68X SLT is fast. Because it is. Very. It's also because the halogrey'n'prizm paint finish that it's wearing is beautifully, subtly understated. With premium, race-proven components and an ultralight C:68X® carbon frame that's fully UCI-compliant, it doesn't need to shout. It's your riding that'll be doing all the talking.
