Introducing the Addict 40 , a versatile road bike that perfectly balances comfort and performance, making it ideal for both experienced cyclists and those just starting out. At its core is the Addict HMF Carbon frame, engineered with an endurance geometry that provides an incredibly responsive ride while prioritizing comfort over longer distances. This setup means you can clock in miles without the fatigue that often comes from less thoughtfully designed bikes. Plus, with features like a replaceable derailleur hanger and internal cable routing, the Addict 40 keeps your ride sleek and easy to maintain.
When it comes to gearing, the Addict 40 boasts the Shimano 105 Di2 electronic groupset. This isn’t just any shifting system; it offers smooth and reliable transitions between gears at the touch of a button. No more fiddling with levers while trying to climb a steep hill—now you can shift effortlessly, allowing you to focus on the ride ahead, whether you’re negotiating hairpin bends or cruising along flat stretches.
Safety and control are further enhanced by the Shimano BR-R7170 Hydraulic Disc brakes. These brakes provide incredible stopping power regardless of weather conditions, giving you the confidence to tackle descents and swift turns without hesitation. The Addict 40 is paired with Syncros RP2.0 Disc wheels, featuring 28 spokes both in the front and rear. This thoughtful design not only boosts the bike’s durability but also ensures a stable ride, which is essential when the road gets a bit rough.
Another standout feature is the Addict HMF fork, outfitted with a 1 1/4″-1 1/2″ eccentric carbon steerer that contributes to the bike’s enhanced strength and agility. This means you can take those sharp turns with ease or kick it up a notch during high-speed sprints without worrying about losing control.
For those who don’t let a little rain dampen their cycling spirit, the Addict 40 is equipped with a Syncros fender kit compatibility. This means you can easily add fenders to keep yourself dry and clean on those wetter rides while maintaining that stylish look.
The feedback from the cycling community has been overwhelmingly positive, with many riders applauding its balance of comfort and performance. Reviewers have noted how well the Addict 40 excels on long-distance trips, making every ride enjoyable, no matter the duration.
