You want a comfy and fast ride that's built for the long haul, and prefer the feel of vibration-damping IsoSpeed and lightweight carbon. Rides might take you over smooth tarmac, rough roads and well beyond. You want a bike with wide tyre clearance to get you through it all.

The tech you get

A light and refined 500 Series OCLV Carbon frame and fork with road-smoothing rear IsoSpeed, powerful flat-mount disc brakes, a full 2x12 Shimano 105 group set and tubeless-ready wheels with wider 700x32 tyres. An integrated cockpit, internal storage, top tube mounts and cable routing add to the bike's capability and sleek look.

Why you'll love it

• The Domane SL Gen 4's rear IsoSpeed, integrated cables and aero Kammtail tube shapes come together for a fast, lightweight and road-smoothing ride
• This bike is super versatile and equally suited to all-day adventures on the open road, club rides and racing
• The Shimano 105 group set is reliable and won't break the bank
• Road-smoothing IsoSpeed and clearance for up to 38 mm tyres absorbs fatiguing bumps in the road for a smoother, more comfortable ride
