When we set out to develop an ultra-light racing bike, the Litening AIR C:68 SLX was exactly what we had in mind. Comfortable for one-day competitions and weighing around 799 g for a medium-sized model, this is the UCI-compliant machine you were looking for to help you maximise your performance, whether you’re tackling a mountain pass or sprinting to the finish line. The Sram Red AXS gears, with built-in power sensor, and the brakes manage stops and starts with precision and predictability, while the Newmen Streem Climbing 35/38 Vonoa carbon wheels, fitted with 28 mm Schwalbe Pro One Aero tyres, help you maintain full control even as speed increases. The ultimate racing machine? It’s up to you to decide. Frame
