Potencia Sprint Carbon (para tubos de dirección con cable oculto)

Fanatic bike! Loved my test ride.

I don’t even know where to start with my experience, the whole process was nothing short of exceptional from both a customer service and product viewpoint. My first call I was fixed on a particular colour and didn’t really look into much detail, Rob who works in marketing was covering sales on the day due to annual leave but quickly let me know that there was another frame on sale that was a different colour and it was a significant amount less. Together we then went through the process of fully customising within my budget including their own integrated cockpit which comes in numerous sizes, exactly what chain rings, cassette and crank arm lengths I wanted, it was literally everything . The process was then passed onto Sam Owen for the full build, he was brilliant, I was kept up to date with each step and he checked every detail with me again including bar tape colour, spacers required etc (He also called the chap who done my bike framing size to confirm measurements completely off his own back). The bike is finished, looks sensational and I couldn’t be happier. If you are looking for a new bike, do yourself a favour and get in touch with these guys. It will be cheaper, the whole journey will be more enjoyable and you will get exactly what you need, no changes needed costing extra on top for different handlebars etc. If this review isn’t enough, have a look at the road.cc review and also the video on David Arthur’s YouTube channel, they are unbelievable!!!!!

I've had my Handsling A1ROevo for nearly 2 years now and it's been fantastic. I love how smooth and fast it feels and I'd never enjoyed cycling so much until I bought it. Recently I completed LEJOG and it was flawless. I highly recommend!

What’s great about Handsling is that you can customize the bike as you like including 30+ frame color options and component choices, so the bike you buy is really made for you (at still a very competitive price point). It also appreciated that Pete was very honest about what component choices make most sense (I went for mid-level SRAM Force given the gains for the Red group set maybe be more limited for everyday riders). I’ve now ridden the bike for about 500km and it’s a pleasure to ride (aero, fast, stiff but comfortable). I originally was more looking at endurance type bikes as I, like most people, don’t race but want to enjoy long weekend rides. However I still wanted to have a fast bike and it turned out that the Handsling A1R0evo is a perfect fit. All in all, very happy with my purchase, you might have to wait for a few weeks to get your bike after you’ve placed the order, however there probably aren’t many brands where the bike you buy is actually only made for you and it’s not a mass produced bike. Customer service is also excellent, Pete and the team respond to any questions in a few hours.

Finally got my new bike, loving the Northern Lights colour scheme as well, first impressions, it a dream to ride and can’t wait to take it up the Stelvio in a few weeks. Customer service is fab, very professional and quick to respond to any questions.

Superb customer service from initial viewing of bikes on-site to delivery and after care. We were kept up to date throughout process,my son absolutely loves bike,perfect fit and big step up from his cervelo s3!! Any questions we had were answered by email within 24hrs or immediately by conversation on phone. Looking forward to his new race season as junior this year. Thanks to all the staff at handsling!!

Excellent comms throughout, made for an easy buying experience. From initial contact and discussing CTW options, through to the bike build itself. Quality of the build is first class. The bike and paint job are simply stunning.

Absolutely delighted with my new A1ROevo which I picked up last week from Handsling. The service I have received from first visiting the shop/factory has been first class, and that has been matched by my new bike's performance. The power transfer is exceptional and the bike seems to glide along effortlessly. At the same time it feels stable and so comfortable. Bottom line: very impressed and happy.

Great service and lovely bikes.

Fantastic product and service!

I am delighted with my bike! It is absolutely stunning; super fast yet very comfortable, a joy to ride. Handsling provided a first class service throughout, over and above any experience I have had buying a bike before, with brilliant attention to detail in all aspects of the build and fantastic customer service. Would 100% recommend, you will not be disappointed

Extremely happy with the road bike and customer support. Great little setup with racing pedigree and none of the big brand pretentiousness.

Great communication. Quality components. Exceptional build. Enjoy the ride!!!

Very professional. Great service. Highly recommended.

I bought a CEXEvo back in February. The purchase process was fantastic - friendly, helpful and responsive. Being fairly local, I popped in to test a couple of the bikes, look at the colour options and have a good chat about what I wanted - a do-it-all cyclocross/gravel/bike pack/occasional road bike. I had been for a road bike fit at Precise Performance only a few months before, so passed on the details to ensure correct sizing and setup (reassuringly, both companies speak very highly of each other). It was great to be able to effectively spec a custom bike to suit my needs, and have a very wide selection of great colours to choose from. I have now had the bike for about 5 months and love it to bits. The sizing and setup was perfect - I haven’t changed anything. I started riding it on the road, have done some summer cyclocross and some gravel rides, including the full 100 miles of the South Downs Way in less than 9 hours riding. The bike has been fantastic - it is a cracking ride and more comfortable than I could hope. I have asked a couple of post sale questions, and they have always been responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend Handsling for both their great bikes and their sales/customer service.

Great service from the Handsling Team - the support from Pete and Mark was exceptional. No questions unanswered, to the point that I am now riding in a much more comfortable position. I am 6ft 7, approx. 115kg so was very unsure on carbon frames and if I would be fine. Discussed it, sent through my measurements, discussed further, talked about what I wanted to achieve in terms of my riding posture etc. I bought the Neon Green AR10evo and honestly, what a bike!! It came setup to my requirements based on our conversations and what a beautiful looking bike, very responsive, very comfortable. Looks bloody amazing, to the point people have genuinely started asking me about the bike randomly. I would give more stars if possible and would tell anyone, if you're thinking about it, get it done! Also, 2 weeks turnaround - thats enough haha! Plus, you can take advantage of the Cycle to Work Scheme and get some nice savings in there!

Treated really well right through the process from initial consultation to discussion of component options and checking sizing for final build. Frames are excellent well thought out design incorporating all the latest developments in integration and aero. Completely custom build at excellent value.

Great bike and great support. Team did an excellent job taking me through the purchase and set up process. Bike is excellent. Lots of fun to ride. Looks good too!

Just wow ....! I cannot recommend this company or their bikes highly enough. From initial contact, the Handsling team, who clearly love what they do, walked and talked me through everything, sizing, setup and equipment selection. They are able to explain, in detail when necessary, every nuance associated with personal preferrences, and of course budget. When faced with uncertainty over which frame colour to pick, Pete Christiensen suggested I visit to see their current frame stock to help me decide. I was also shown the bike build area while there. I have been associated with manufacturing, engineering and assy for over 30yrs. I quickly recognised the professional layout, cleanliness and tool care etc that supports a quality build. They know what they are doing ....! I chose to pick the completed bike up and was treated to a very warm welcome. Marc talked me through the bike and its features and was open to any questions I had. Upon leaving I was reminded that they are always availble should I need any help or assistance in the future. I am so pleased with my purchase.

This may be a long review, so if you want the bottom line, if you can afford an A1ROevo you should buy one – it’s phenomenal. An amazingly fast, stable and super comfortable bike made to your own requirements, from an incredibly helpful and professional UK company. My initial contact with Handsling was by email one evening, and I was amazed to receive a reply from both Steve the owner and Pete the sales lead around 9PM the same night. I was invited to come along, see the bikes, have a coffee and even have a test ride. I was super impressed by the whole buying process. Very individual, with Pete giving up a lot of time to explain the various choices available, which were huge, helping me specify a build that would give me what I wanted, and even setting up a bike in their workshop to see how it would compare on sizing/ reach etc. with my old bike. It was amazing to be able to select everything from frame colour to gear ratios to wheels to tyres to bar tape! Altogether this inspired huge confidence in deciding to go ahead. Such a completely different experience than going to buy a bike off the shelf from a bike shop or mass produced for on-line sales. Before the bike was even built I was contacted by the Mark the mechanic who was going to build my bike to confirm all my choices. He sent photos during the build process and when the bike had passed its QA checks. Picking up the bike Mark talked me through the whole bike before a test ride. The bike is a blast to ride, super-fast, handles smoothly and is more comfortable, even over 70+ mile rides, than my Specialized Roubaix with Future Shock. Since recently buying the bike my fitness hasn’t improved, but my speed certainly has! I am incredibly pleased; oh yes, and the bike LOOKS amazing too. Bottom line, it’s a lot of money, but if you can afford an A1ROevo it’s one phenomenal bike; go and buy one – you won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic bikes, lovely people and a great workshop/showroom to visit.

Stunning bikes and lovely people. The service from Handsling bikes is excellent and they will go tbr extra mile to make sure their customers are happy.

I purchased a CXEVO and I am very impressed. Not only is the bike awesome, but the customer service through the entire process is better than any other bike company I have dealt with. As my son continues to grow in track and CX, we will definitely be looking to move him onto Handslings!

From start to finish I was personally taken through the build process for my bike through emails and telephone calls. I was advised at every stage on bike fit, including frame size, which turned out to be perfect. The service was totally bespoke and professional and the bike is fantastic.

Love my new A1ROevo – light, comfortable, fast and a joy to ride. Also enjoyed going out to the workshop, getting a test bike and trying it out on the country lanes. Everyone I met at Handsling was helpful and nice to deal with. A great company.

Fantastic service, excellent quality, very knowledgeable. I cannot praise them enough!

Handsling bikes are simply the best bike purchase experience available. A truly caring team with the most amazing bikes. My track bike is an absolute joy to ride and I'm planning to get a roadbike too. Just don't tell my girlfriend.

Heh guys, bit of feedback, Took the bike out for a couple of short rides this weekend. Bloody awesome. Stiff, nimble and really quick, yet more than comfortable…..that frame is seriously top! All the set up was spot on; using 28’s tyres perfect for the gnarly Yorkshire tarmac, gearing perfect for the lumpy terrain and really surprising how well it climbs…you can spin up or push the higher gears and either way it scoots up and doing that on 20%’s is no mean feat. Might be an aero bike but it’s all round performance is more than I could have expected….easiest way to sum it up is that I had a big grin on my face for all 80 miles this weekend!! Thanks for building an absolute beauty of a bike

Very positive experience highly recommend their service and bikes. Took time on my questions and excessive pondering.Fitting and kit choice very in depth, bike arrival smooth and ready to go. Rides and races brilliantly everything I had hoped for. Slight bedding in service issue which they dealt with above and beyond. Great team and product thanks guys.

My new Handsling A1R0evo Shimano Ultegra Di2 has been on it’s first holiday ! Unbelievably pleased with the whole buying experience from the guys at Handsling. From my first engagement with Pete, through the meticulous build progression and personal fitting with Liam and some much appreciated after sales practical assistance from Nev and the team to get my new chariot safely packed up for my travels; at every juncture the service has been just perfect. The bike handles like a dream and the aero gains that blessed me with a few PRs are totally down to the bike rather than my holiday diet! Heads turn and bike envy is alive and kicking when you have a Handsling.

I love the bikes. I have been riding on their A1ROevo and their TR3evo and I am so impressed! It is so stiff and reacts right away. The bikes are super fast and just amazing! The bikes are aerodinamic and still very comfortable. And in addition to that, the colors on the bikes are just stunning and you can't put a finger on the customer service. Quick response and they are always ready to help.

I was in need of a new bike to replace my trusty but aging Scott Addict, but nothing out there on the market really rocked my boat, even the new Addict (price and colour were a factor as well). Several months ago, by chance I saw a Handsling A1R0evo at my work in the bike room. It was in raw Carbon black and looked amazing. Having never seen or heard of this bike before I did the usual Googling and a bit of research, I very much liked what I saw. Roll on another few weeks and several chats with Simon, plus a visit to their workshop I had made up my mind. Simon was very patient in answering all my MANY questions plus his team were very welcoming and helpful during my visit to their workshop, even though I could see that they were really busy. I placed my order whilst there, specking my new bike out to exactly what I wanted. Roll on again a few more weeks and I am now the proud owner of an A1R0evo. It has already been taken to Mont Ventoux literally only after about one week of ownership. It performed so well, great on the climbs and even better on the many descents. I am a quite a nervous descender having taken a few tumbles in my time, but this bike gave me so much confidence. It was stable, surefooted, comfy and fast. I had a big smile on my face, as for once I could enjoy every descent. I would go as far to say that the bike descends better than my old Addict, obviously bearing in mind that the A1R0evo has Disc brakes and tubeless tyres which helps. Also the bike is unique which I like as it is the focus of much attention when out on the club runs. Absolutely love it !! Would 100% recommend Handsling if you are looking for a new bike. Updated 12.09.2022 Well, what do you know, I ended up buying another Handsling bike!! This time their CEXevo in a lovely Candy Red. I wanted to have the option of two very different bikes, so I opted for the CEXevo but built up as a road bike. The bike is yet again amazing, spec'ed 100% to my choices. It fits me perfectly and is a dream to ride. It is also a very comfy frame. It is a different ride to my A1ROevo, but equally as good in its own way. Also being a CEX frame I have the option to add larger tyres If I fancy a bit of gravel riding !. As with the A1ROevo, it is already getting admiring glances and attention. Again the guys at Handsling answered all my questions and were a pleasure to deal with. The only issue now is what bike to take out to club rides and events !! Handsling Bikes = 100% recommended.

Hands down the best bike I've ever had! Pete, Liam and the team at Handsling have been brilliant from the first call I made to them. I was speechless when I saw the finished bike...truly. The fact that you can make so many customisations within the set price compared to the 'big brands' is one of the things which attracted me to them as well as having the bike built to your requirements. The A1R0evo truly is a wonderful and brilliantly built bike. The looks and comments I get from other cyclists (and other road users) is testament to that. I adore my bike - she rides like a dream. Massive kudos to the team at Handsling!

Really like the bike, the new 12 speed Di2 is fast and precise. The bike itself is fast, it climbs, its stable, it handles brilliantly, inspires confidence at speed and is comfortable; for an aero bike anyway. I have had issues with the seat post, but customer service/care is exceptional; to the point the owner of the company was out his office and getting his hands dirty making sure it was sorted 👍

What can I say, from first contact to picking up my new bike, Simon, Liam and the crew were brilliant, nothing was to much trouble. As for the bike, what a dream and probably the best aero bike I’ve ridden. Made to my specs and not some over priced off the shelf bike that would cost £3000 + more. Get involved with this company they are top notch

Great experience from start to finish, the guys at Handsling Bikes did a fantastic job in delivering an awesome A1ROEVO road bike. Great advice on components and setting up the bike to my needs, couldn’t ask for any more. Massive thanks to Pete Christensen who was great and provided the personal touch and helped whenever I asked for help. Great customer service and fantastic bike. Looking forward to seeing this company grow and seeing more of their fantastic bikes out on the UK roads

Im absolutely delighted with my A1ROevo, there’s nothing I can fault. The ordering process was smooth and communication brilliant. I had a realistic estimate from the start as to when the bike would be ready, the team kept me updated with the progress. The sizing is spot on, I collected the bike and have ridden 250km on it without having to make any adjustments. The bike is super smooth but also has really sharp handling and just feels fast. I would thoroughly recommend the team at Handsling to anyone!

Handsling are a lovely firm to deal with and the customer service has been excellent, emails promptly answered and advice given. My bikes a stunner to look at and a dream to ride. She’s fast, solid and corners with no hesitations. She’s a flying machine and I feel comfortable and confident riding her. I hate twitchy bikes and for me she is perfect. I am absolutely smitten, I love my bike 🥰 A big Thank you to the Handsling team.

I am absolutely delighted with my Handsling A1R0evo. From my initial visit and discussion with Miles, to Pete who is extremely knowledgeable and provided me with great advice, guidance and worked with my bike fitter to ensure my custom build worked for me. I am loving riding my bike again.

Love my new Handsling, especially the paint. Great service and super to deal with throughout the process. Only downside for me was a rear blowout 6km into my first ride 🙁. New Pirelli will be needed albeit a large plug got me home Great bike, love it 😍

An amazing experience from start to finish! The team at Handsling went above and beyond to create the ultimate road bike for our 12 year old daughter. She's a very petite 12 year old and trying to find a bike that had the spec to match her racing needs was proving impossible. The time the team took with us and the efforts that went into sourcing and creating her dream bike were mind-blowing. I have one incredibly happy daughter and would highly recommend!

Great quality frameset which is outstanding to ride. Speed & comfort rarely come together on a road bike but my A1R0EVO has it mastered. Thank you for advice and support during my build.

Just collected two new Handslings - A1R Evo. Great bikes and great service. Drop into the workshop and have a look around, but beware, you'll come away with an order. Happened to me...

I built my first gravel bike over two decades ago when I fitted my road machine with 25mm tyres and my first mountain bike was a cyclo cross machine equipped with straight bars. For years I have often taken to the rough stuff departing the asphalt with glee and I recall smashing the small wheels on a Moulton what seems like yesterday but was in fact a hundred years ago! My gravel bikes over the years have been a series of CX frames I had fitted out to ride rough stuff and other wild trails. I had been happy with my ride up until now, but the trails here can be demanding and on my previous bike I felt nervous, under geared and seriously under braked on the many descents in my new home area where there is a myriad of routes to enjoy. Rim canti-lever brakes off road are OK, but they can be a strain on the hands-on long descents as you attempt to feather ever increasing amounts of lever to trim your speed. I took a decision to go ´all in´ with modern technology and completely escape the hold of the old. I wanted a bike for exploring that was closer to a cyclo cross machine than an MTB and for me the EVO X is that. On the rides I have taken so far it has offered performance and super confidence on the long often stone strewn fast descents which are normal here. I have fitted 40mm gravel tyres and I know it can accommodate bigger onto what are rather special hand-built wheels. I also like the colour and I especially appreciated the great thought taken in the posting of my bike, the packaging and padding was ingenious and offered an insight of Handsling´s mindfulness. When I ride it on asphalt, I feel like I am on my road bike and when on gravel it feels as stable as a MTB. Cool!

Amazing customer service and amazing bikes. I initially put in a question via the website which Simon answered very quickly. After a few emails, we had worked out what size frame, bars, stem I needed and placed the order. He answered all my questions quickly and with plenty of detail. My bike (A1R0evo with SRAM Force AXS) arrived wrapped up very well. Everything was dialled in perfectly so it took 30 mins to assemble - wheels on, seat post in - then was ready to ride. The handling is quick and responsive, but not to the point of being twitchy or worrying. The local roads are not the best, but it handles the roads brilliantly with enough feedback to keep control but no 'road buzz'. The frame feels so stiff & solid when you accelerate, but does dampen the constant bumps on the road. The gearing was setup perfectly, no mis-shifts at all, and the batteries were fully charged so it was ready to go out the box. One huge point for me - I have the 50cm frame and it is designed so you can actually have 2 bottle cages and 2 bottles, plus there is no toe overlap. This is a problem on many bikes in the smaller sizes. The finishing kit from Prologo & Schwable tyres completes a brilliant package. The bike wouldn't be out of place with any of the big brands top of the range models. For the price, it is excellent value for money - especially with the customer service. I would recommend the company and bike to anyone looking for a new bike.

Absolutely chuffed with my new Handsling A1R0EVO, what a machine! It absolutely flies, it is incredibly responsive and super comfy. Also, the customer service is excellent. Simon was very patient in answering my questions from start to finish (there were a lot) and and was hugely helpful in determining the best bike set up. It is a joy to ride, I can't wait to get back on the road.
