Product Details
The Dolce Elite packs a whole lot of performance into a quality ride. Purpose-built to take you places—both physically and geographically—the Dolce Elite features a quality component package and a geometry that will keep you comfortable on long rides as you explore your boundaries. With its smooth-riding premium aluminum frame, this is the perfect bike to introduce you to the sport, or take you to new levels of confidence on your cycling journey.
The agile and responsive FACT carbon, full-monocoque fork features Zertz inserts to absorb road roughness and give you a smoother ride.
D’Aluisio Smartweld technology in the E5 Premium Aluminum frame provides a lightweight and precise-handling ride, while the Women’s Endurance Geometry of the frame delivers improved stability for confident control when climbing and descending. This geo also puts you in a less aggressive and more natural ride position for hours of comfortable riding.
The Dolce Elite features Shimano’s Tiagra drivetrain with compact 50/34 gearing. This affordable, quality group provides smooth and reliable shifting on climbs.
