A full two years after we started, our relentless drive for the perfect ride has finally produced the results we hoped for: The Archon C-Series. With an undeniably distinct package of aerodynamic improvements, the C-Series frames represent the peak of carbon engineering, from the industry standard-bearer in design innovation.

C3: Many of the same AeroLogic and innovation construction features of the C1 and C2 models, exception performance at an exceptional price.

  • Unique Aero shrouded water bottle mounting
  • Latest BB30 bottom bracket technology optimum use of today's stiffest and lightest drive components
  • Integrated seat mast design reduces weight and improves aerodynamics aerodynamic design enhancement with no weight penalty. A great climbing bike with a true Aero advantage on descents.
  • Litespeed's engineers have varied the tubing proportions, cross sections, carbon lay-up and profiles to ensure the optimized ride quality and performance throughout the full range of sizes.
  • Morphed seat stays were designed to increase aero performance, stiffness and ride comfort.
