- New edition of the Cube Litening Aero: optimised aerodynamics (6.2 watts less drag), greater comfort and tyre clearance of up to 34 mm.  
- Redesigned cockpit and cable routing, virtually unchanged sporty geometry, new frame size 62 for very tall riders.  
- Five models with Shimano or SRAM groupsets, weighing 6.9–7.6 kg, priced from 4,999 to 7,299 euros, still competitively priced compared to many rivals.

Cube Litening Aero 2027: Faster, lighter – but still affordable?

- A very comfortable endurance bike with ample tyre clearance of up to 40 mm, long-distance-friendly geometry and a smooth, predictable ride.  
- The original 32 mm tubeless tyres offer comfort and off-road capability, but they roll with some resistance and are pressure-sensitive; faster alternatives are recommended.  
- Low-maintenance cockpit setup, Shimano 105 groupset, IceTech brake discs, carbon wheels and good value for money, but few additional features.

- Addict 30: An endurance bike for recreational cyclists, with a very comfortable, upright riding position and wide 34-mm tyres, but relatively heavy at 8.5 kg.  
- Fitted with Shimano 105 electronic groupset and basic carbon wheels, it is reasonably priced, though it lacks mounting points for mudguards or a luggage rack.  
- Lots of practical features for everyday use, such as an integrated tool kit, storage compartment and optional rear light; easy-going handling, suitable even for those who are not very fit.

- The Aeroad CFR LTD is designed for maximum aerodynamics (wind tunnel: 198 watts) with its new RACE cockpit, 1x13 SRAM drivetrain and Conti Aero 111 tyres.
- An extremely stretched, low riding position, a narrow front tyre and a stiff seatpost offer high speed potential, but little comfort and are not well suited to long distances.
- The 1x13 setup, with a large cassette, audible chain drift and large gear gaps, is particularly suited to experienced specialists and faster rides on flat terrain.

- New carbon frame with design elements borrowed from the Arcalis and Xenith, offering significantly improved comfort thanks to the seatpost clamp and carbon seatpost.
- Top-of-the-range model with SRAM Force and carbon wheels for €4,499; four variants starting from €2,399, plus customisation via the Stevens modular system.

Sporty, robust, versatile: the new Stevens Izoard

- The Dogma X is Pinarello’s endurance all-road racer, featuring redesigned X-Stays 2.0 for improved vibration damping on rough tarmac.  
- Frame made from Torayca M40X carbon, with optimised aerodynamics thanks to an elliptical head tube, tapered down tube and closed fork dropouts.

- The Giant Propel is the lightest aero road bike (6.43 kg), offering greater comfort, agile handling and a significantly more affordable price point.  
- The Specialized Tarmac SL9 is aerodynamically superior (205 W), very well-balanced, with stable and precise handling, and 30 mm tyres for versatility.  
- Both score 1.4; our recommendation: Giant for riders who prioritise weight, comfort and value for money, and Specialized for uncompromising competitive cyclists.
