The "Absolutist 1.0" ranks sixth in Storck's frame programme, which now comprises twelve carbon models. In addition to the brand-typical appearance with clear design lines and characteristic egg-shaped head tube, the test bike also proves to be a real Storck on the road. The high riding stability and slightly softened steering geometry convey a confident riding experience at all times. Instead of the class-typical "Ultegra" groupset, Storck chose the "105" from Shimano with an attractive black anodised finish for the test bike. The money saved was invested in high-quality Ultegra wheels, which significantly enhance the bike thanks to their elegant appearance and superbly mounted hubs. Further eye-catchers are the Storck blue lettering on the stem, handlebars, seat post and tyres.
