A1R0evoS Features
The Handsling A1R0evoS is the ultimate carbon road frame for riders looking to build an uncompromising, lightweight superbike. Engineered 100% in-house and built from premium Toray T1100 carbon fibre, it delivers a pro-level, race-winning ride. It's everything you need to cheat the wind, smash alpine climbs, and dominate the local crit.
Superlight Toray T1100 Carbon Frame
Premium T1100 carbon requires less material to achieve elite stiffness, resulting in a featherweight 770g frameset (size 52) that easily builds into a sub-7kg superbike.
UCI-Approved & Comfort-Optimised Design
A tapered seattube and narrow seatpost absorb harsh road vibrations, paired with generous clearance for up to 32mm road tyres (and up to 33mm for off-road testing).
Aerodynamic Truncated D-Shape Tubing
Truncated D-shaped aerofoil tubes and fully integrated internal cable routing work together to slash drag and cheat the wind from every angle.
Asymmetric Fork and Chainstays
Engineered with an asymmetric front fork to handle intense disc-braking twisting forces, paired with asymmetric chainstays to counteract high-wattage drivetrain flex.
High-Performance BB86 Bottom Bracket
An oversized downtube flairs into a full-width BB86 press-fit shell—the ultimate engineering standard for maximum power transfer without compromise.
Stable & Fast-Reacting Handling
Features neutral geometry that remains rock-solid and stable on high-speed descents, while staying incredibly nimble, sharp, and responsive through technical corners.
Sizing Guide
Finding the right size bike can be a bit overwhelming, but don't worry - we're here to help. The right size bike will ensure a comfortable and safe ride, so it's important to take some time to find the perfect fit.

Handsling A1R0evoS
Stiff, Aero & Lightweight.
The Handsling A1R0evoS (pron. aero-evo) is the ultimate carbon road frame for those seeking to build a lightweight superbike
Using the same moulds as for the A1R0evo, the A1R0evoS utilises Toray T1100 carbon fibre, which requires less material to achieve the same level of frame stiffness, thereby resulting in a lighter frame that is still as stiff as our race winning T800 series frame
It refines our carbon fibre road bike platform with Toray T1100 carbon - delivering a lighter frame, increased stiffness, and ultimate performance for pro-level efficiency in a razor-sharp package.
One of the strongest, toughest carbons on the market internal EPS internal moulds used for increased carbon compaction, eliminating small imperfections to make the frame tougher, lighter, and stiffer rigorous, destructive testing procedure to surpass ISO standards.
The frame was designed in-house from scratch to achieve real world aerodynamic performance combined with the toughness to sustain minor knocks.
Handsling are in the fortunate position of being able to control all aspects of production and actually own the moulds which we use to make our bikes.
Tested and developed in race conditions, the UCI-approved A1R0evo excels in multiple scenarios - from tight city centre streets to steep mountain passes to cruising on a club ride.
Frame accepts 32mm tyres, increasing comfort levels and opening up all sorts of possibilities.
Larger tyres enhance comfort so frame can be built with more lateral stiffnessUnique aero seattube shape which thins to a standard diameter seatpost.
Seatpost is an aero, truncated D-shape and utilises a clever, non-stick seat clamp expander bolt hidden under the top tube
Bikes are assembled in Handsling's UK workshop according to rider size and spec, including high-end components from Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo, and your choice of wheels and finishing kit.
We offer Remote Tailored Sizing so you can get the best fit.
"A high-end, no-compromise road bike that delivers stiffness and comfort in equal measure." 9/10

What makes carbon fibre a high-performance material for bicycles?
What makes carbon fibre a high-performance material for bicycles?
Carbon fibre delivers exceptional stiffness-to-weight, ideal for performance bikes. Handsling uses Toray T700, T800, and T1100 carbon. Latex-wrapped EPS internal moulds maximise carbon compaction, resulting in frames that are light, strong, durable, and comfortable over long
rides.
What are the benefits of a carbon bike frame compared to titanium, aluminium or steel?
