    S-Works Aethos - SRAM Red eTap AXS

    Delivery Icon

    We deliver! Just say when and how.

    Don’t get us wrong, we’re all for racing. Grand Tour top steps, Classic’s Monuments—they’re in our DNA. But sometimes riding simply to ride, riding for the love of riding, is just what we need. And this is what the Aethos lives for. Sure, it’s given nothing up to performance, and happens to be the lightest frame out there, but with no compromise to style. Aethos: Billions of calculations in the pursuit of one thing—the perfect ride.

    Top off the world’s lightest frame with SRAM’s 12-speed RED eTAP AXS groupset and Roval’s featherweight Alpinist wheels and you’re left with a perfectly balanced top-tier ride that gives up nothing in the name of performance.

    This bike is incredible. I

    This bike is incredible. I was weary of making the jump into such a high-end bike, but this thing puts a stupid smile on your face that won't go away. So fast!

    The Aethos has me re-examining

    The Aethos has me re-examining my thoughts about aero bikes. I truly love riding this machine. The acceleration and ride qualities are amazing. I still hold out for a return of the Venge, but, for those who ride in hillier conditions or would prefer a single quiver, you owe it to yourself to add this bicycle to the list of potential candidates of your next bike

    The S-Works Aethos is everything

    The S-Works Aethos is everything they say it is… super light, super comfortable, effortless climbing in these Santa Monica Mountains, clean design…this bike is amazing! I love everything about it and feel like it was made just for me. The guys at THE HUB in Westlake Village are the best! They were spot on in helping me pick the best bike for ME!!!!

    Sold a Tarmac Disc Pro

    Sold a Tarmac Disc Pro in order to save nearly three pounds for all the climbs in our area. First few rides have been fantastic. Initial concerns about loss of Tarmac's "aero capabilities" on the flats were quickly put to rest. This bike rolls so smooth it might even be faster on the flats. I haven't put it through a long day with multiple hard climbs yet but I can't wait to do so. I love the understated graphics, classic look and familiar geometry (to the Tarmac). It took very little time to adjust the fit. This will be my roadie for many years.
