CHALLENGING
GRAVITY

An aero bike that reduces wind resistance is great, but a race bike should also – of course – be as light as possible. So, with the Litening® AIR, we developed a frame from our premium C:68X® carbon that combines the best of both worlds. At around 799g for a mid-sized frame it's svelte enough to easily build a UCI-compliant 7.3kg bike, but it's still slippery through the air and comfortable for long days in the saddle. The overall weight saving on a classic road bike is a difference you can clearly feel – and see in your results!

The Litening AIR C:68X Race blends ultra-low weight with aero design, carefully selected components and an understated blackline livery. The result? A UCI-compliant race machine that's as light as possible, surprisingly comfortable... and blisteringly quick. Go. Faster. Than. Ever.

As aero as possible, as light as possible and fully UCI-compliant: the Litening AIR C:68X Race ticks all the boxes, so you can perform better. Built around our ultra-light C:68X® carbon chassis, we began by fitting Shimano's ultra-reliable Ultegra Di2 components and power meter-equipped chainset. Newmen Streem A.49/A.54 wheels shod with 30mm Continental Grand Prix 5000 S tyres get your power down to the road. And the light, comfortable full carbon fork complements the exceptional performance of the C:68X® carbon frame. It's ready to perform. Are you?
