BH teases next generation G7 aero road bike

The lack of brakes and the airbrushed section around the axles implies that this is the next aero frame, disk brake, road bike. Popcorn anyone?

Looks pretty unremarkable to me. With all the big hitters coming out with super integrated bikes, this looks like a budget aero road bike(surely it won’t be). No foresight needed, the cool stuff is already out, why come out with something that competes with the last generation of bikes?

hydro discs, OBVIOUSLY. Look at the shifters!

Hydro brakes for sure – the big shifters are the give away. Now if it is light and can do climbing duty this would be an unreal bike. I am of the opinion that disc brakes make perfect sense for those that climb and come back down, i.e. a climbing style of bike. But to me aero bikes as they are now, being heavier, are more suited for the flats which really doesn’t need the advantage of disc brakes. But a light, aero disc brake would be awesome. Comfortable would be nice too…

Well I have owned a G6 and an Ultralight. I will say that they are some of the best riding bikes i have ever owned. The only AERO bike that I have ridden that had a better feel for in handling, climbing and descending is the Wilier Cento Air.

The biggest issue that BH has in the USA is they are an unknown because the lack of marketing and PR. Sad that is what it takes but it is true. The big three bike companies do not make better bikes than everyone else they just spend a lot in marketing to make you believe that they do.

I swap between road wheels and CX wheels on my top end cyclocross bike, just holding off on a new roadie until more like this hit the market and road discs settle down a bit. Disc brakes, love it ! Very nice BH.
