The X-LAB AD8 proves you don’t need a WorldTour budget to ride a seriously fast bike. Built around the same aerodynamic frame design and race-proven geometry as the flagship AD9, the AD8 delivers speed you can actually feel — whether you're chasing personal bests, rolling turns in the bunch, or attacking your favourite local climb. Every tube shape, every angle, and every detail is designed to help you ride faster with less wasted effort. The Toray T800 carbon frameset hits the sweet spot of stiffness, low weight, and responsiveness, creating a bike that accelerates eagerly and feels sharp under power. Shimano 105 Di2 electronic shifting provides precise gear changes at the touch of a button, while the Branta C45 UL carbon wheelset with carbon spokes keeps rotational weight low and speed high. Finished with a Branta carbon crankset featuring an integrated power meter and Apple Find My tracking technology, the AD8 combines performance, technology, and value in a package that's ready to race, train, or simply ride faster. Aero performance without the premium price tag.
