  • Lightweight and high-performance frame design

Cons

  • Less spritely feel on out-of-saddle climbs

Key Quotes
The new Domane’s ride is more equal at the ends.
Bicycling
Considering my 'cobbles' are less like Paris-Roubaix and more like the incessant cracks and gaps of Tucson’s city roads, the Domane is equally adept at smoothing our daily 'classics'.
