With this frame set, you have the perfect canvas to begin creating your dream ride. The Aethos frame has been designed with the perfect combination of ultimate ride feel, light weight, and style. From accelerating up steep pitches and descending technical descents, to all-day saddle comfort on even the longest coffee rides, the Aethos hits the mark.
