You want to be fast? You'll need two things: a bike that fits properly, and a frame that's designed to slice through the air as efficiently as possible. The Agree C:62 is available in a huge range of sizes from 47cm to 62cm, so you can be sure to find the one that suits you perfectly. And, with its exceptionally neat integrated handlebar, Advanced internal cable routing and carefully profiled tube shapes, it's as slippery as we can make it. Add the optional storage box – perfect for tools, a snack or an extra layer – and slender stays, and it's as comfortable on long rides as it is rapid. The ideal combination.

If you understand the principle of marginal gains, you'll appreciate the Agree C:62 SLX. That's because it's built to slide through the air like a hot knife through butter, but still have the comfort and low weight you need for long days in the saddle. We fitted Newmen Streem Climbing 35/38 wheels with Continental Grand Prix 5000 tyres, to complement the frame's aero credentials. Combined with the full carbon fork, an integrated carbon bar and stem, and the super-precise shifting and powerful braking of Sram's Force AXS 2x12 components, it'll redefine your expectations of what a race bike is capable of.
