An in-depth review of a custom build centered on Yonex's carbon technology, integrated with high-end components including Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, Cybrei, and Sigeyi.

Drivetrain Detail

Precision Power Transfer: The Drivetrain

Integrating Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 front derailleur with an ultra-light Cybrei carbon crank and Sigeyi power meter. Combining efficient power transfer with precise data measurement.

Snap Acceleration and Ground-Hugging Propulsion

The standout feature of Yonex frames is their extraordinary "flex" and "snapback speed." It's not just about stiffness; it's the sensation of the bike accelerating like a spring the moment you stomp on the pedals—a feeling unique to this brand. In this build, we spared no compromise in component selection.

Cockpit Detail

Absolute Control: The Cockpit

KREUZA's integrated carbon handlebar provides exceptional stiffness and aero performance. The white bar tape serves as a design highlight, achieving a clean and refined aesthetic.

Overall Verdict

This YONEX road bike is a formidable weapon for hillclimbing. The fusion of meticulous carbon layering—a hallmark of Japanese manufacturing—with world-class components results in a machine that truly deserves the title "Ultimate."
