Another quick update from Berlin bikemaker Standert… their affordable aluminum Kreissäge road racing bike gets updated with the same modern integration as its Scandium Rally Sport sibling, but now with even more affordable builds. The Kreissäge concept was always to create more accessible race bikes. And while the made-in-Italy frameset’s prices have crept up over the past 5 years, Standert has actually managed to bring down the entry-level cost of complete electronic-shift builds by several hundred euros, making their race-ready more accessible than ever…

When we first found Standert’s alloy road bike named after a circular saw five years ago, that 2nd generation Kreissäge Disc had just been upgraded to Italian Scandium for more of a race-ready feel. But it was only a year and a half later that Standert chose to differentiate the core aluminum all-rounder road bike from a more race-focused rally sport version in lighter Scandium alloy, then newly named the Kreissäge RS. And while we’d already seen a lighter, more integrated v2 RS, the regular aluminum bike chugged along at a lower price with a bit simplified details.

But now the core Kreissäge gets its own sleek integrated update, in two simple new Yin & Yang black & white liveries.

And while this isn’t their lightest, most advanced road bike, the updated Standert Kreissäge is still built to go fast, sharing the exact same race-ready geometry as the Kreissäge RS, just 120g heavier.

And yes, prices for pretty much everything keep climbing. A new MY24 Standert Kreissäge frameset is 200€ more than it was 5 years ago, or 100€ more than the most recent iteration sold earlier this year. But one bright spot of the expansion of electronic groupsets, is that you can now buy a complete modern Kreissäge with a wireless SRAM Force AXS group for around 400-600€ less than you could 5 years ago. That’s something.

(Sure, more affordable mechanical shift builds are now out the window, unfortunately. But such appears to be the unstoppable force of progress.)

What’s new?

The most obvious change, of course, is new routing. Now routed through the upper headset cup instead of ports in the downtube, the aluminum Kreissäge already had a straight oversized 56mm headtube, so it’s really the disappearance of cables that stands out.

But out back there’s an equally important upgrade with all-new dropouts, too. The new Standert Kreissäge switches to the future-proof UDH standard with a cast dropout that smoothly transitions from the tapered chainstay.

With external cables gone, the new frame is no longer compatible with any mechanical shifting setups. And Standert no longer offers a rim brake version with the Kreissäge’s new update. (Your only rim brake hopes are catching a previous version before they go out of stock, or one of their last demo bikes.)

The newly updated affordable alloy Standert Kreissäge frame is welded by hand in Italy from lightweight Dedacciai Aegis aluminum tubing and is now incrementally about 45g heavier than the previous generation, but with a 10g lighter carbon fork.

Full Integration” with visible cables. “Unstoppable force of progress“. What a shame.

Ok, I’ll bite because I seem to have missed something.

Since when is 4000 EUR considered affordable for an alloy bike with alloy wheels and alloy kit because that’s just what it is?

And who is calling it affordable, Standert or bikerumor?
