Just like in Part One of our road bike roundup, here we’ve got several Euro-only brands. Actually, they’re all Euro brands you probably won’t find Stateside, starting with the Stevens Comet SL above. At just 4.9kg (10.8lb) for the complete bike, it’s arguably the lightest production bike, just edging out the Dimar Kinetic-One. Of course, it’s decked out with the types of parts that are usually found on ultralight show bikes and lightest bike contenders.

This dream bike will set you back a mere €12,999 (about $17,640 as of this post). Click to enlarge the spec sheet for brands on the build.
Full AX Lightness cockpit would help any bike.
After three years of putting discs on their cyclocross bikes, Stevens has now introduced a disc brake equipped road bike. And it’s decked out with far more reasonable parts.
Trigon unveiled their new TT918 triathlon bike built almost entirely with house made parts. The front fork looks to adapt to either hidden linear pull aero brakes from Tektro or standard “C” calipers.
They also had their disc brake road bike, which can also run aero v-brakes.
