With the "Onroad Sport", the modular supplier from the Westerwald shows that you can put together a decent racing bike even on a tight budget. The rigid aluminium frame has a clean finish and is available in many sizes and numerous colours on request. The mix of "105" shifting technology with brakes and cranks from FSA works smoothly, even if not quite as perfectly as the complete groupset. A small surprise are the "Aksium" wheels from Mavic, which are gradually competing with the simpler wheelsets of the "Ksyrium" series following the latest model update. The good riding impression is underlined by the "Grand Prix" tyres from Continental, which are among the best this test field has to offer. Therefore: not a bike to show off, but one for many kilometres and therefore inexpensive in the best sense of the word.
