Apr 2026 · Zach Overholt

The new Kaius 01 is more aero, stiffer, lighter, and adds more tire clearance. Impressive.

Highs

  • 3% greater stiffness and 4% weight savings over previous version.

  • 12% improvement in bike-only aerodynamics and 1.05% system-wide speed gains with 45mm tires.

  • Tire clearance up to 52mm with ISO 6mm clearance, down to 32mm without pedal/ground clearance issues.

  • T47 x 85.5 threaded bottom bracket (not pressfit).

  • External cargo system with top tube bag mounts, Cargo Plate, AeroCore bottle cages, lower downtube mount.

  • 1x specific drivetrain with chainrings from 32t to 50t, integrated chain guide.

  • Full Mount compatible UDH dropout for latest SRAM drivetrains.
