Size Guide
A light, responsive racer equipped with quality Shimano Claris 2x8 gearing; this road bike is a must-have for riders looking to increase their distance, step up to an ultra-fast commuter, or take on a group riding event or triathlon.
The Aquila is an impressive Road riding performer at a competitive price. Built on a lightweight, hydroformed alloy frame with newly optimised geometry and an internal headset for improved stiffness and control.
The frame also features plenty of mounts for pannier racks and drink bottles so you can rig the bike for weekend adventures or the daily grind.
Shimano Claris STI integrated brake and gear levers make for easy control at speed (you don’t need to move your hands off the brakes to change gears). The compact double crankset and 8-speed cassette gives a wide, evenly spaced gear range.
Promax dual-pivot calliper brakes paired with Kenda 25 millimetre tyres deliver a fast-rolling ride, with reliable and sure control.
The Aquila is finished with thoughtful and quality kit including double-wall alloy rims, Quando quick-release hubs and oversize alloy stem and handlebars.
