Garneau Axis 4

Cycling is meant to be fun, inclusive, inspiring, and so much more. In many cyclists' experience, some of the best ideas come from casual rides with friends or going on a nice leisurely solo ride. Garneau designed the Axis series of bikes for this exact purpose. They wanted a bike that defied expectations, because the minute you try and define something, the status quo will change. The world is ever evolving, and the Garneau Axelle bicycles provide a constant foundation to allow room to breathe.

The Axis 4 is a great entry road bike that's packed with trustworthy features. Garneau used hydroformed S-6 aluminum technology for the frame, threw on a carbon fork, and equipped it with a Shimano Claris drivetrain to tackle those hills without reducing your top speed. The frame's internal cable routings keeps cables protected, and has the added benefit of a neat setup. A pair of 700 x 25c Vittoria tires round out the build to give extra suppleness for a smooth, confident ride.
