AeroShield: Closed cockpit speed
Aeroshield pairs custom ergonomics with pro-level aerodynamics to bring closed cockpit performance to all athletes. Size-specific armrests distribute pressure evenly and improve control while enabling a narrower, faster position. Millimetre-precise adjustments to stack, reach, and extension angle ensure optimal fit and performance, tailored to you.
AeroFuel: More fuel. Less drag.
Triathlon is a fuelling game, and racing with your personal nutrition beats relying on aid stations. Modular hydration and nutrition storage on Speedmax CF SLX lets you carry more fuel with full independence while staying competition-legal. The integrated design optimizes airflow for more fuel, less drag, and cleaner, simpler storage.
AeroFit: Precision meets simplicity
Your body accounts for over 70% of system drag, so your position is key. The Speedmax is the most intuitive, adaptable bike triathlon has ever seen. An industry-leading fit range supports even the most extreme positions, while our Perfect Position System (PPS) takes your biometrics or fit data to deliver a pre-configured bike you can fine-tune at home.
AeroBase: The fastest frameset
The Speedmax CF SLX builds on the benchmark-setting aerodynamics of its predecessor, fused with a revised, modern geometry for increased stability and control. We’ve also simplified access to frame hydration as well as the emergency repair kit, and made Speedmax CF SLX totally future-proof with UDH, clearance for up to 30 mm tyres and oversize aero chainrings.
Simple. Intuitive. Precise.
The beauty of Speedmax CF SLX lies in how simple it is to work on. You do not have to be a pro mechanic to dial it in to perfection. Across the bike, corrosion-resistant Torx 25 screws are consistently applied for secure engagement, and each bike ships with a premium torque wrench for total confidence in your setup.
Tool pouch storage at the bottom bracket is fast to extract for quick mid-race repairs with space to house a TPU inner tube, 2x 16 g CO2 cartridges, our 3in1 multitool, a valve extender and tyre levers. (Tool pouch included, contents sold separately.)
