Peloton performance
With the same peloton-leading aerodynamics as the flagship Aeroad CFR, the Aeroad CF SLX is one of the world’s most efficient race bikes and a true aerodynamic masterpiece. To deliver the stiffness-to-weight levels that high-level racing demands, Aeroad CF SLX frames are constructed using a new, advanced carbon layup – generating performance on a par with the World Championship-winning previous-generation Aeroad CFR. The frame features special KAZE paintwork- the Japanese word for wind- and a reflection of the pure speed this bike delivers.
PACE - Performance Adaptive Cockpit Ecosystem
From more upright and comfortable to low and aero, switch between cockpit setups in minutes using the Aeroad's interchangeable drops. As standard, this bike comes with our longer, narrower, more efficient Aero Drops, which put you into a lower, more aerodynamic riding position to save up to 14 watts. To give you more control and confidence in fast corners and descents, we added 19 degrees of flare to the drops, and the moderate 105 mm depth from the top bar means you don’t have to go too deep in the drops increasing comfort in an aerodynamic position. Our Classic Drops are available as an aftermarket extra for a more upright riding position, with swaps taking minutes.
A versatile, adjustable carbon cockpit
As well as interchangeable drops, our groundbreaking CP0048 Aerocockpit places a wide range of fine fit adjustments and gear integration options in your hands. Dialling in your fit is precise and fast, with 20 mm of height and 50 mm of width adjustment with no cutting required. Plus, the new Gear Groove interface provides a solid platform for mounting a range of accessories quickly, from aero bars to computer mounts (available separately).
The benchmark of aero seatpost design
Comfort meets efficiency. Designed using advanced wind tunnel technology, the new Aeroad’s seatpost saves you watts for a free speed boost. Plus, it’s also simple to adjust so you can easily find your perfect riding position thanks to independent setback and tilt adjustment plus 100 mm of height adjust in sizes XS-2XL.
Minimal maintenance headset bearings
Spend more time on the road and less in the workshop. With improved seals and super-smooth premium ceramic bearings, the Aeroad's headset effectively keeps out water and dirt for beautifully smooth steering with almost zero maintenance. Even through the longest races in the harshest conditions, these seals are up to the task.
An integrated tool for adjustments on the go
The Aeroad's removable through axle lever doubles up as a TX25 tool that fits almost every screw across the bike, and clips discreetly into the wheel when not in use. From adjusting your saddle height and tilt to changing your cockpit height and width, this single tool is everything you need to make dozens of adjustments and tune-ups on the road.Please note: the user is responsible for following the specified torque values when tightening bolts, which cannot be checked with the tool.
SLX: dream big
The Aeroad CF SLX is our cutting-edge aero race bike for riders dreaming big. Optimised with more pro input than ever, and stress-tested at the toughest races in the world, it’s the bike that allows you to chase your speed dreams – and fulfil them.
