The elegant Visioner is not only the best and lightest bike in the test according to the final score, but also by far the most expensive. The relatively high price is mainly due to the fact that Storck has upgraded the bike with some high-quality equipment details from its options programme. The stylish, lightweight DT Swiss wheels stand out, and the bike is the only model to feature carbon handlebars. The basis is the beautifully finished, dark green anodised Visioner frame, whose weld seams are slightly lighter in colour than the rest of the surface. If you don't like this look, you can also get the frame painted in black, blue, white, orange or red for an extra charge. The great riding experience is not least due to the top-quality Schwalbe tyres. The riding position is moderately sporty and, as usual, Storck does not compromise on riding stability.
