True to the motto "If it's different, then it's right", the Agree GTC SLT comes with the rarely installed Force groupset and also attracts attention with its grass-green paintwork. The sporty frame geometry is aimed at riders with racing ambitions, who will also appreciate the high riding stability and manoeuvrable steering behaviour. It is always a pleasure to grip the thick Racelite handlebars from Syntace, which are angled slightly towards the rider. On the other hand, the simple saddle is a little too flat and angular for our taste. The lightweight Force groupset brakes and shifts perfectly, and the shifting brake levers feel great in the hands. Stiff Fulcrum wheels roll on Schwalbe's new One tyres, which provide a confident ride.
