Our take on the Bombtrack Audax AL Road Bicycle
The Bombtrack Audax AL is an aluminum all-road bike with a 1x11 Microshift drivetrain, 650B wheels, and a rigid frame. It stands out for its wide 11-46T cassette, thru-axles, and 120 kg load capacity, making it versatile for gravel and commuting. The latest best price is not available, so we cannot compare it to its recent range.
