Overview
About this bike
The Archon is the bike Litespeed has been waiting to create for over 21 years. Born from relationships with NASA and pro cyclists, Litespeed has developed and put together a series of tubes that balance the legendary strength and durability of titanium with stiffness, handling and acceleration never seen before in a titanium product. Litespeed's asymmetrical chainstays and an ovalized seat tube that wraps the bottom bracket provide added weld surface area, stiffness and incredible power transfer. And, this sweet ride boasts a Shimano Dura-Ace kit that matches its thoroughbred roots. Ditto for the Fulcrum Racing wheels, Chris King headset and Ritchey WCS controls.
