Description
Our entry into the SILEX carbon range, the SILEX 4000 features the same test and award-winning full carbon frame as its two bigger brothers but, due to clever component choice, is able to come in at a very attractive price. The comfortable and stable geometry makes the SILEX perfect for long trips in the saddle.
The 700c wheels specced with capable yet fast-rolling gravel tyres allow our SILEX to cover ground easily, whatever the surface. There's a certain beauty in just riding without watching the time, heading wherever you feel the urge. For those rides, the test and award-winning SILEX makes total sense; our most comfortable and versatile road bike ever. With its modern MTB inspired geometry, long top and head tubes and short stem, it offers nimble, confidence-inspiring handling. While often seen on extended gravel and rough road outings, as well as bike packing trips, the SILEX also found a strong following in comfort-orientated road riding connoisseurs as well as commuters and city traffic weavers. The more rugged 650b wheeled alternative to the 700c SILEX has managed to obtain multiple test wins as well as comfort awards, and is coming back in the form of the fully loaded and wirelessly shifted SILEX+ LIMITED. The 'classic' 700c SILEX also impressed the press with the 400 securing a test win in Cycling Plus, being certified as having a 'huge fun factor', 'superb riding position' and 'brilliant off-road handling'.
