SPECIALIZED S-WORKS AETHOS 2022 FRAMESET KIT

The Specialized S-Works Aethos frame embodies the essence of a road bike: extreme lightness, impeccable ride quality, and timeless style. Designed for those who ride for the pure pleasure of cycling, yet without sacrificing performance, it is the ideal starting point for creating a custom, uncompromising bike.

The Aethos philosophy stems from the idea that performance is not just numbers, but sensations on the road. That's why Specialized rethought the traditional form of the road bike, optimizing it to improve stiffness, balance, and comfort, without increasing weight or sacrificing durability.

Thanks to a completely new lay-up developed over decades of experience, the S-Works Aethos frame achieves an extraordinary weight of just 585 grams in size 56, making it one of the lightest frames on the market. But lightness alone is not enough: the structure has been designed to offer the perfect balance between front and rear stiffness, ensuring a stable, precise, and comfortable ride.

By analyzing in detail the flexibility of the carbon fibers and the way forces travel through the frame, Specialized has created a bike that sets a new standard for ride quality. The result is a frame designed to tackle steep climbs, technical descents, and long rides with equal naturalness.

The S-Works Aethos is the perfect starting point for the bike of your dreams: light, elegant, and designed to deliver a unique riding experience.
