The chic carbon racer in the livery of the professional team FDJeux is very stable and extremely comfortable. The equipment with complete Ultegra, a pleasant-to-grip handlebar from Deda and the very comfortable Antares saddle is a pleasure to ride. The Schwalbe tubeless tyres mounted on Ultegra wheels, which the French manufacturer offers as standard, have an almost spectacular effect. In direct comparison with conventional folding tyres, the tubeless tyres roll lighter and smoother. Even the GrandPrix 4000S from Conti, the undisputed reference among folding tyres, can't keep up. The riding position is sporty, the damping is significantly better than the measured value would suggest, despite the oversized seat post due to the tyres.
