The Specialized-Lululemon team is among the crème de la crème of the international professional scene in women's cycling. So it's no wonder that the zebra look of the team jerseys can also be found on the American women's top model.

Also the translation of Strength was well chosen. In addition to the 10-speed cassette with 11 to 28 teeth, the cranks were fitted with blades with a gear ratio of 50/39. This will do that Amira SL4 Pro C2 versatile and also allows excursions into the mountains. And seriously: who wants to drive flat all the time? The only thing I personally didn't like was the rather short and narrow handlebar-stem combination. Here, race-oriented components still offer some optimization potential.

Thanks to the optimized geometry, the bike is back-friendly and comfortable despite all racing genes. The frame is reinforced at the front and in the bottom bracket area to guarantee greater rigidity. The flat front and the short strut area allow abrupt acceleration, but also very smooth running.
