The thrill of speed unites road cyclists. Whether professional or amateur, the fundamental goal is to push harder, chase speed and break free. Nothing embodies this better than the Reacto. The latest generation delivers fundamental changes that further improve its aerodynamics, reduce its weight and offer tyre clearance up to 32 mm, all while maintaining the comfort and control the Reacto is known for. The perfect entry to our aero bike range. The Reacto 4000 uses exactly the same super-aero frame shape as our top level models. Using the utterly reliable Shimano 105 groupset with hydraulic disc brakes and some choice components, it's ready to ride and race from the box, as well as being a great platform to upgrade as you progress.
