Whether you're new to riding or just looking for a bike that can do it all with aplomb, you'll feel right at home with the Dolce. It's been designed specifically for women, so you can expect an incredible geometry, women's-specific components, and a ride quality that's sure to deliver a smile to your face.

Making sure every single watt you produce gets transferred to the road, we built the Elite from our A1 Premium Aluminum with our Women's Endurance Geometry. This ensures that you stay comfortable and confident over any kind of terrain, while also providing a lower standover. Essentially, this makes getting on and off the bike, as well as putting a foot down, as easy as can be.

For the build, we spec'd it with reliable Shimano Claris 8-speed shifters, sturdy Axis Sport wheels, and traction-packed Espoir Sport 25mm tires. Of course, every facet of the bike is tailored specifically for female riders, from the handlebar width, to the crankarm length, all the way down to the superlative Body Geometry Myth Sport saddle.

  • The Dolce Elite's sturdy and reliable A1 Premium Aluminum frame is built with our Women’s Endurance Geometry. This geo improves stability and handling, so it gives you confident control when climbing and descending, while also putting you in a less aggressive and more natural ride position. The result? Hours upon hours of comfortable riding.

  • The agile and responsive FACT carbon fork features Zertz inserts to absorb road roughness and to give you a smoother ride.

  • Shimano's Claris 8-speed shifting delivers all the durability you need while providing plenty of gears for a variety of terrain.

I love it! Any beginner, go for it!

I'm also a beginner and I got this as a college gift in 2017. I absolutely loved it, and I feel so confident riding it. I did have some scrapes on the top tube & down tube, and I hope to get that part replaced soon maybe. Other than that, I absolutely love riding this bike with my family. I may get new tires soon too.

Awesome bike

As a beginner I was drawn to this bike, purchased in 2019, I loved how smooth it was, vast improvement on speed, and the gorgeous color. If it was still in stock I’d buy one today to replace the one that fell off the bike rack on the highway that my son failed to secure well! 😭
