Nashbar AL1 Road Bike

Value abounds while the price astounds with the Nashbar AL1 Road Bike. Quite simply, you won't find a better spec'd entry into the world of road riding. There's an aluminum frame that's light, strong, and built to last while up front the carbon fiber fork ensures the bike handles like a charm out on the open road. Shimano's Sora components at the shifters, derailleurs, and cassette provide incredibly reliable gear changes and the compact gearing - with 50/34T chainrings and an 11-25T cassette - means you'll be equipped to climb serious grades and still have plenty of top-end for speedy sections of tarmac.
