The elegant blue anodised finish on the A-Limited frame is reminiscent of the late 1990s, when coloured anodised aluminium frames were in vogue. Formally, however, the frame with hydroformed tubes and press-fit bottom bracket is clearly from today. Perfect weld seams are pleasing to the eye, and the largely carbon-free new Dura-Ace groupset also proves to be a suitable visual complement to the relatively light frame. The fact that the shift cables are routed externally makes maintenance easier. The flexible carbon seat post spoils you with a high level of comfort. The racing-style riding position is a reminder that Koga can look back on a long racing tradition. The A-Limited is only available as part of Koga's Signature modular programme. Good news for tall riders: the frame is built up to size 66.
