For This Bike
Jun 2020 · James Spender
A bike for every situation, as much a joy to corner on as to sprint, to descend on as to climb
Light
Responsive
Stiff
Unexceptional wheels
May 2018 · Warren Rossiter
Sublime ride quality hampered by mediocre spec. Buy if you want a classic race frame and are prepared to upgrade significantly down the line
The Helium X has all the handling chops and smoothness I’d ever want
It’s just too pricey for the equipment levels

Light, fast and great handling race bike but let down by the wheels
