Key Quotes
This $4,800, 17.2-pound Aethos—the base model—is one of the finest road bikes, of any price, I’ve ridden in my long testing career.

Much like an iPhone, it appears sleek and minimal on the outside, but with incredible technology and performance hiding inside.

The Aethos is crazy light.

It’s one of a small number of test bikes I’ve missed since the day I handed it back.

The result is the new Specialized Aethos. A concept that goes against the status quo and may revolutionise how bikes are designed and built in the future.

Specialized Aethos Comp review: More affordable, more weight, still magical - CyclingTips

aug 2021 · James Huang

Even an extra 100 g and heavy parts can’t dull this frame's luster.

Hoogtepunten
  • Superb chassis efficiency and handling, excellent ride quality, generous tire clearance, classically understated aesthetics, headache-free cable routing, proprietary (almost) nothing, SRAM Rival AXS works just as well as Red and Force.

Dieptepunten
  • Heavier than some might like, mediocre (and poorly built) wheelset, almost impossible to get.

The Specialized S-Works Aethos in review

apr 2021 · Benjamin Topf

Hardly any aerodynamic features, cable integration or even mounting points, other than for two bottles: the list of things that the Specialized S-Works Aethos doesn't have is long. Does this reductionist concept work during the test or does this bike not stand a chance against the competition? Find out here.

Hoogtepunten
  • Balanced and intuitive handling

  • Most light-footed and willing acceleration in the test

  • Minimal weight without the usual disadvantages

  • High level of comfort

Dieptepunten
  • Average efficiency on the flats

  • Limited mounting point
