Specialized Aethos 2 - Break the rules The Specialized Aethos 2 is more than just an ultra-light road bike, it is a declaration of love for the pure riding experience. With a frame weight of just 705 grams, it is one of the lightest bikes in its class. But weight was never the main goal. Rather, the idea was to create a bike that feels completely natural - agile, supple and full of elegance. The Aethos 2 literally disappears under the rider and conveys an incomparably direct, intuitive riding experience. Thanks to greater tire clearance, optimized components and optimized geometry, even more riders can now enjoy this extraordinary experience.

Based on over 100,000 individual Body Geometry Fits, Specialized has further refined the geometry and ergonomics of the Aethos 2 - for an even more natural, balanced riding experience. Whether on long climbs in the mountains or fast, technical descents, the new Aethos delivers precise handling, stable control and exceptional comfort - even over long distances. It is more versatile, more confidence-inspiring and simply even closer to the perfection of an ideal road bike. More comfort, more control, more feel The Specialized Aethos 2 has been revised down to the last detail to make it even more balanced and intuitive to ride. The 15mm longer stack relieves the strain on the hands, neck and shoulders - for a more relaxed posture on long rides. What impresses on the climbs also shines on the descents: the 7mm longer wheelbase provides additional stability at high speeds, while the 0.5° flatter head tube ensures agile, precise and almost predictive handling - as if the Aethos could read your mind. The 3mm lower bottom bracket creates space for more voluminous road bike tires and at the same time reinforces the feeling of being connected to the bike and the road. The result is a ride that perfectly combines lightness, control and comfort. More freedom, more possibilities, no compromises The Specialized Aethos 2 is more versatile than ever - with tire clearance of up to 35 mm, it opens up completely new possibilities. More comfort, more grip and a smoother ride feel ensure that every road becomes an experience. Specialized has not only developed the best carbon layup to date, but has also rethought every detail of the frame. Not a single gram has been left untouched. The Specialized Science Club has perfected every element to create a road bike that takes efficiency, lightness and performance to a new level. The fastest way to the top The Specialized Aethos 2 benefits from a perfectly matched combination of Alpinist handlebars, Alpinist stem and Roval C 38 wheels. All components have been specially developed to make the bike lighter, faster and even more powerful. The Roval C 38 wheels transfer the top performance of carbon fibers directly to the road. They are versatile, stable and agile at the same time - whether on undulating gravel tracks or challenging Alpine passes, they offer maximum control and speed on any terrain. The Alpinist handlebars are 15 % lighter than the S-Works Short & Shallow and were developed for riders who want to combine long climbs, fast sprints and precise handling. Timeless design meets uncompromising performance - ideal for anyone who appreciates lightness and efficiency in equal measure. <\/p> Get the Specialized lifetime warranty with BIKE24<\/h3> Specialized stands for quality and that's not just a claim, it's a commitment.
