The extremely rigid aluminium frame of the Onroad Lite, protected by robust anodised aluminium, is an old acquaintance in the TOUR test. One argument in favour of the bike is the many available sizes; another is that Müsing offers a modular programme that allows you to customise your bike. It would also be possible to paint the bike in one of numerous colours of your choice. In the version supplied, the bike scores with a complete new Shimano-Ultegra groupset with 22 gears - rare at this price level. There are also no complaints about the Citec wheels and top tyres from Continental. As the Ritchey aluminium seatpost offers comparatively little suspension, a lightweight carbon seatpost would be a better choice. The relaxed riding position qualifies the model as a marathon racer, even if it is not officially labelled as such.
