“honey my $10K tarmac isn’t light enough and I need an easy to work on climbing bike bc I’m getting dropped on the club runs. So I got this aethos”

[yankboraayman]

I'm a simple man.. When i see Norcal cyling videos, i watch them even if its a sponsored video.

I recently saw an Aethos in real life at my local club ride. I have to say I literally sat on the guys wheel the entire ride so I could look at it. What a beautiful frame, the shape, the paint job, the geometry..aaaah envy.

Yeah, I don’t need my first child. This bike looks dope.

I took my 12k, bought a trek emonda and used the difference to fly to italy and ride around the dolomites for two months.

Specialized: Here is the new SL7, one bike to do it all!
Alos Specialized: Here is a new lightweight bike.

Q: Who is this bike for?
A: A rich dentist.

[sadlfjasdfacv]

I took my 12K, bought a supersix evo with dura-ace, and used the difference to fund a startup.

The new Tarmac is the new Venge. The new Aethos is the new Tarmac. We got played.

You know S-works are too expensive when even their own sponsored rider says you won't be able to afford them unless you sell two of the year before models and says its double the price lol

The bike industry has come full circle. These are the types of bikes we used to ride a few years ago, round tubes, standard size seat clamps, stem and handlebars, rim brakes, threaded BB and exposed cables. Back in the day when everything is simple and easy to work on, but without the price tag of this type of bike.

Production on these just keeps going up

[VHBAZ]

My super six evo from 2014 is the same weight, round tubes, easy to work on and didn’t cost half the federal reserve

[rorner]

It’s a gorgeous bike and I wish more companies would make bikes that look and perform as well.

When you are saying about options, for me there is one more your are not saying, the budget aero bike: the allez. i'm not gonna lie, i love my allez, Its so much bike for the money and i don't care about the extra kg or so. If you ask me, the allez sprint is the best bang for the buck if you just want to go very very fast, but is not for everyone, it's so agressive that most people just ain got the flexibilty

[danroberts]

So funny. I’ve ridden those roads in the opening drone footage so many times; I recognized them immediately. Great area to train!

[TheStealthypie]

Glad they finally updated their SuperSixEvo

[chrispyy]

LOL if they really cared about simplicity and lightweight they would have brought back the Tarmac SL5 in rim brake.

[sunderfun]

Athos - you can actually change the stem and bars, and adjust your fit!
