To win a Triathlon World Championship, you have to be truly elite across the board.
That goes for bikes as well as athletes. Raced to victory at the 2023 Triathlon World Championships by super talent Sam Laidlow, the Speedmax CFR is the premier bike in triathlon today. Period.
Speedmax: the triathlon benchmark
How do you make the fastest bike even faster? Through an intensive, painstaking process of CFD and wind tunnel development in collaboration with the aero experts at Swiss Side, we extracted every last watt out of the Speedmax platform.
The result? The fastest Speedmax we’ve ever created.
An aerodynamic masterpiece
In the bike split, aero is everything.
We meticulously simulated and sculpted every millimetre of the Speedmax CFR using supercomputer and wind tunnel technology with our aerodynamics partners Swiss Side to deliver aerodynamics worthy of Triathlon World Champions.
Fastest Speedmax ever
A multiple World Champion, the Speedmax only has itself to beat. Developed using invaluable input from our aero partners Swiss Side, the latest Speedmax saves a huge 9 watts over its predecessor at 45 kph.
A drag-busting front end
An overhauled front end drastically reduces frontal drag caused by stack height, the proximity of the rider’s arms to the base bar and the previously external nutrition system.
Aerodynamic fork
The fork’s thin, broad form was sculpted for maximum aerodynamic performance.
And the shape also shields the brake callipers from the wind, further reducing turbulence.
Air-slicing seatstays
The Speedmax features ultra-thin 8 mm seatstays sculpted in the wind tunnel to reduce drag and rear wheel turbulence to an absolute minimum.
Bespoke customisation service
Once you buy your Speedmax CFR, our experts will be in touch to get you locked in and race-ready.
Perfect fit: we'll find your optimal basebar design and stem length.
Extra edge: to save precious watts, premium CeramicSpeed upgrades are available.
Once your setup is confirmed, we’ll take payment and build the bike of your dreams.

Enjoy silky-smooth pedalling with a free-spinning Ceramic Coated Bottom Bracket. For an aero edge, select the watt-saving new Oversized Pulley Wheel System.
Innovative, integrated storage
The Speedmax CFR is packed full of aerodynamic, integrated, rapid-access storage that saves you seconds when seconds matter most. And our speedy refill valve allows you to top up your in-frame Hydrapak bladder on the go.
Aero toolbox
The bottom bracket box gives you storage for inner tubes or additional bike maintenance kit. Part of the frame’s carbon structure, it’s made from ultra-rare Toray MX40 carbon fibre and contributes to improving the frame’s aerodynamics stiffness.
Hydration on board
Developed with hydration experts Hydrapak, this bladder is invisibly integrated into the down tube of the Speedmax, providing plenty of hydration with no need to change your position.
Top tube bento box
By fully integrating the bento box into the frame, we reduced weight while also improving stiffness and aerodynamics. A newly designed high-grade lid lets you get inside the box in an instant.
