The Sportif bucks all the time honored reasons not to ride a bike. It’s comfortable, it’s sporty, it’s well-equipped, and quite a lot of bike for the price. It’s everything you need to get out the door and go. Taking geometry cues from our top-level endurance bike, the Gran Fondo, the Sportif's longer wheelbase and taller headtube position the rider efficiently to reduce arm fatigue and back strain while on the road.
