AUDAX AL SWORD
The Audax AL Sword is an allroad bike designed for long miles, mixed surfaces and everyday reliability. Its lightweight aluminium frame with a T47 bottom bracket delivers a strong, responsive ride, while the full carbon fork with bottle cage mounts boosts versatility for endurance adventures. Equipped with Microshift’s Sword 10-speed wide-range drivetrain and an 11 – 48T cassette, you’ll have all the gears you need for steep climbs and fast flats. The clutched Sword rear derailleur with a replaceable cage ensures smooth, secure shifting, even on rough terrain. A Bombtrack Lyer 30 mm aluminium crankset with a 40T narrow-wide chainring adds durability and chain retention. Rolling on tubeless-ready WTB ST i21 rims with plush 650B x 47C WTB Horizon tires, the Audax AL Sword is ready for the road less travelled.

¹ Our bike size recommendation generally represents a rough guideline for quickly narrowing down the sizes from which to choose based on the body height. Bike fitting is a complex topic and other measurements and factors have to be accounted for as well. Since no two human bodys are exactly the same it is not possible to give a 100% correct advice for everyone. Therefore Bombtrack cannot guarantee for the stated recommendations to be correct for every individual customer. The best way to work out the correct size is to consult a local Bombtrack dealer or a professional bike fitter and have them determine the needed size.
