INTROThirty-four millimetres is the point at which a road bike ceases to be just a road bike. That is precisely what the veloheld.icon Allroad is built around. We built this one – frame size S, made from Columbus steel – for Jörn. It is fitted with Schwalbe Pro One tyres in 34-622 with bronze-coloured sidewalls, fitted to HUNT 40 Carbon Disc. The frame is painted in Capri blue, gloss finish, and the carbon fork is the same colour. The result is a bike that doesn’t see cobblestones as an insult, but as a game, fun and excitement.

Capriblau RAL 5019: looks just like a holiday

The frame is wet-painted in RAL 5019 with a gloss finish. The carbon fork has been painted the same colour, so that the bike is blue from front to back. To match this, all the decorative elements are in silver. You can find more information on how we paint here.

SRAM Force AXS mit 48/35 und einer Kurbel, die mitzählt

Shifts using SRAM Force AXS, 2×12, chainrings 48/35, cassette 10–36. The crank is 165 mm short, for frame size S it’s not just a fashion, but rather a bit of maths. The crank contains a power meter, which you can’t the outside you can’t see.

Deda Superzero RS and Superbox V2: not a cable in sight

The handlebars are a Deda Superzero RS Carbon measuring 400 mm, and the stem is a Deda Superbox V2 DCR measuring 90 mm. DCR means that the cables run through the stem into the frame. From above, therefore, all you can see is the handlebar tape and two levers. A narrow handlebar, a short stem and short cranks: this cockpit has therefore been perfectly adapted to the small frame size S.

HUNT 40 Carbon Disc und Schwalbe Pro One in 34 mm

The wheels are HUNT 40 Carbon Disc with 40 mm rim height and an XDR freehub. Fitted with the Schwalbe Pro One in 34-622 in bronze-skin. The sidewall is the second colour on this wheel, alongside the blue. 34 mm means lower tyre pressure and more smoothness on poor tarmac. Cobblestones become a minor issue, and when the tarmac ends, you simply carry on. We call this ‘Slow is Fast’.

Welded in Leipzig: steel where it counts, carbon fibre in all the right places

We weld the icon in our frame workshop in Leipzig. The frame of our veloheld.icon Allroads is made from Columbus steel. We like carbon too, but only in the right places: the fork, handlebars, crankset and wheels, for example, are made of carbon.
