Be sure to check out the A9, which incorporates both.


Aero Bike A9: Designed to minimize air resistance and friction
If you're using a commercially available bicycle, when you stop pedaling after accelerating and building up speed, does it decelerate quite quickly? The Aero Bike A9 answers this small concern. This bicycle is designed to be highly resistant to air and to minimize friction with the ground, so it doesn't decelerate immediately.


Lightweight at 7.98kg, still rare in the world
While we have many road bikes, few weigh 7.98kg. This lightness was achieved by using T700 and T800 carbon materials developed by Toray Industries. Toray's carbon materials come in five grades: T600, T700, T800, T1000, and T1100, with T600 being the lowest grade and T1100 the highest. By using a mid-grade material for the Aero Bike A9, we were able to achieve both rigidity and lightness.

Aero Bike A9: Full Carbon

The Aero Bike A9 is full carbon. Because the carbon material developed by Toray is used for the Aero Bike A9's frame, there's no concern about strong vibrations from being too light. You can enjoy a stable ride even on bumpy roads, like those typically ridden with a mountain bike.

Aero Bike A9: Strong Rigidity and Air Resistance

The Aero Bike A9 excels in rigidity and lightness due to its special carbon material, but there's another reason for its strong rigidity and air resistance. That is, it mimics the design of Profile Design, the most popular manufacturer in the United States. Profile Design offers fine adjustments (customization) according to the rider's arm length and degree of forward lean, earning immense trust from triathletes and road racers. By adopting a similar design for the A9, we created a bicycle that combines rigidity and lightness.

Aero Bike A9: Sleek Design

The Aero Bike A9 features internally routed cables in its frame, giving it a sleek and cool appearance.

Aero Bike A9: Equipped with Disc Brakes

This bicycle uses disc brakes, so there's a round plate, called a rotor, on the rear brake part. This is unique to disc brakes, and the rotor rotates and creates friction to slow down the bike. We won't go into detail here, but this rotor can be tightened by anyone without special tools, so even road bike beginners can ride with confidence.

Aero Bike A9: Highly Maneuverable and Light

The wheels are ICAN's FL40-TLR, and the spokes are CX-Ray. CX-Ray spokes are a product of the bicycle manufacturer Sapim, and they are already a standard overseas. In fact, German rider Martin, who won the team time trial at the UCI Road World Championships and achieved his fourth individual time trial victory, also uses them. CX-Ray spokes are made with the motto "flexible," resulting in spokes with minimal power loss, enabling an efficient ride.

Aero Bike A9: Crisp-Shifting Gears Suited for the Design

The gears use Shimano's Ultegra 800. Being smaller than the previous model, even riders with small hands can comfortably shift gears. There are also comments that shifting stress has been reduced compared to the same manufacturer's 105.
