Long thought of as their classic road bike, Stevens’ new Izoard now takes aerodynamic inspiration from their Arcalis and endurance comfort from their Xenith to build a better, more modern all-rounder road bike. With aero shaping, 10% weight reduction, bigger 32mm tire clearance, a classic 27.2 post, a mini integrated Fidlock frame bag, and more relaxed road geometry. The new Izoard is meant to be the ideal no-nonsense road bike for riders looking to just ride. Plus, it’s just as affordable as it was a few years ago. Thanks to a wide range of mechanical and electronic build options.
2026 Stevens Izoard all-rounder road bike updated
Named after the 2360m pass in the French Alps topped with a small cycling museum and monument to Fausto Coppi, the Stevens Izoard is a one-stop-shop all-rounder road bike.
Aerodynamic fork, hourglass headtube & downtube shaping, plus fully integrated cable routing adapted from Stevens’ aero race bike ensure you won’t be sacrificing watts in the wind. Its frame is not exceptionally lightweight, but now up to 160g lighter to handle some big climbing days. And still, the new Izoard keeps pretty sharp angles to preserve responsive handling. But it now gets longer chainstays, fitting bigger 32mm tires, and slightly shorter Reach & incrementally taller Stack to improve all-day riding comfort.
What else is new?
A revised sloping top tube layout, plus a new integrated seatpost clamp that gives more extension of the classic round seatpost for improved comfort at the saddle.
Now, a new integrated Fidlock magnetic mount under the toptube provides a quick-release mounting point for a mini Vaude frame bag to carry ride essentials. Or on the other hand, use it to mount any other standard Fidlock bottle or accessory.
Additionally, a move to the UDH standard out back means compatibility with all types of drivetrains, even 1x setups thanks to a removable front derailleur tab. And in good news for affordability, the new Izoard’s fully internal routing is still compatible with mechanical shift drivetrains.

MY27 Stevens Izoard – Pricing, options & availability
The new Izoard is available now four complete bike builds, or as a separate frame set for your own custom build. And starting next week, it will also be offered in Stevens’ online custom bike configurator.
The most simply-named Stevens Izoard is also the most affordable build at just 2400€ with Shimano 105 mechanical 2×12, 30mm deep alloy DT Swiss AR LN Classic wheels with 370-level Ratchet hubs, and 30mm tubeless Continental Grand Prix tires, at 9.0kg complete (all claimed). Interestingly, that’s the same entry-level price Stevens sold the previous generation Izoard since it debuted in 2022.
Step up to 3000€ for the Izoard 105 Di2, which shocker… carries the same general spec, upgraded to the semi-wireless electronic Shimano 105 Di2 2×12 groupset, at 8.6kg.
Then, at 4000€, the Stevens Izoard Ult goes up to Ultegra Di2 and a set of 45mm deep aero carbon Leeze CC 45 Basic AR wheels, at 8.0kg.
The top spec model is the Izoard Force, a 4600€ build with a SRAM Force AXS E1 2×12 wireless drivetrain and aero carbon Vision SC45 i23 wheels, at a weight of 7.9kg complete.
If you want to build up your own custom bike, or just need more colorful paint options, then there’s also a 1900€ Stevens Izoard frameset. It comes in 4 colors: Solar orange, Phantom white, Mystic violet & True black – not the Ocean green of the Force build, though.
The all-new Izoard can be ordered now from your local Stevens dealer, with real in-shop availability expected in “autumn 2026”.
