Alchemy’s new aero carbon fiber road bike is, like virtually every bike at NAHBS, gets full custom geometry.
The new design borrows the tube-to-tube construction of their standard round-tube carbon bikes, it just uses aerodynamically shaped molded tubes. All tubes are U.S.-made UD carbon. They’ve been making their standard round tube carbon bikes for about a year and a half, but this new Aero Road is a bit more for racing with features like a tapered HT and PFBB30. Price is $4,500 and frame weight is 1100g (57).
There’s also a dedicated TT/Triathlon model with even more aero shaping, plus a belt-drive 29er mountain bike, standard road bike and a fixed gear with trick chainstays. Peep them all after the break…
The Aero Road has full internal cable routing for both rear brake and derailleurs.
The Aero Road maintains a standard round seat tube, but the TT/Triathlon bike below gets a sculpted seat tube and other wind cheating shaping:
It’s also full custom and about the same weight as the Aero Road. Price is $4,750. Lead times are 8 weeks.
The Fixie bike is steel and runs $1800 and is also full custom.
