Details
Emonda ALR 4 is a lightweight aluminum road bike at an incredible value. But don't mistake it for the kind of ride you'll get from value-minded competitors at this price. Shaped tubes, Invisible Weld Technology, and a lightweight frame that's perfect for new riders and racers alike give Emonda ALR the looks and handling of carbon at the price of alloy.
It's right for you if...
You're a value-minded rider looking for a lightweight race bike, a whole lot of performance for your dollar, and a quality ride you won't immediately outgrow.
The tech you get
Emonda ALR 4 is more than the sum of its parts. Yes, it has a full Shimano Tiagra groupset, 20 speeds, a carbon fork, powerful direct mount rim brakes, and a lightweight 300 Series Alpha Aluminum frame with shaped tubes—but its real genius is in its handling and ride quality.
The final word
Emonda ALR 4 is the most affordable Emonda in the family, but it handles like a far more expensive bike and has the looks to match. It's an extremely capable race bike at a great value.

Coming off an old chromoly hybrid, the frame geometry took a couple rides to get used to. The full Tiagra groupo performs exceptionally - better than the old 105. Lightweight and responsive, it's just fun to ride. It also looks killer, which is not supposed to be a factor in a bike purchase but I get other cyclists checking it out and asking what I'm riding quite often. I ride paved trails and street 60-120 miles per week and it's more comfortable than my old roadie. If you don't have the budget for a carbon fiber frame look at the Emondas.
Pros
- Well-balanced Frame

it is my first road bike, i jumped from a hybrid fx 7.2 to this bike and so far it looks awesome, very light, easy to handle. tires are kind of basic, but you can upgrade to better ones in the future. this is a really good looking bike, you may not want to lock it outside.

The product is well built. I have been riding mountian bikes for a while and noww into road bikes, and its been a blast. I have no problems as of right know but I'm sure i will enjoy it.. no one can tell me about the bluetooth system that is built into the frame I called and researched, and nothing
