BBULRSLR003
Designed, developed, and aero tested to provide class-leading aerodynamic integration in real-world conditions, the Ultra SL R is our fastest road bike ever. For this elite-level build, we have carefully selected high-end components that perfectly complement the high-speed aerodynamics of this advanced carbon frameset. This includes the fully wireless electronic gear shifts of SRAM’s Force eTap AXS 2x12 system, smooth-rolling LEVEL DB56 Pro carbon wheels fitted with Continental’s new GP5000S TR race tyres and ground-breaking Ultra Aero carbon integrated handlebars that shake the very foundations of design, performance, and aerodynamic integration.

Developed specifically for the Ultra SL R, the Ultra Aero carbon integrated bars feature a patent-pending design that represents a giant leap forward in aerodynamic integration. The innovative wake generating concept disrupts the airflow, creating a wake for the rider's legs to sit within, manipulating vortexes around the rider to further enhance airflow. An aggressive looking, drag-defying anatomic wing top section further accentuates the bars aero credentials. It’s not all about the aero, however, with all-day ride comfort also at the forefront of design. The flat-top section also providing a comfortable hand position for climbing, whilst ergonomically optimised drops conform to the natural curvature of the rider’s palm and feature a textured finish that doesn't require bar tape.
More than any other, SRAM’s eTap AXS has pushed the boundaries of what is possible with electronic shifting technology. Force eTap AXS integrates top level technology into an efficient package that includes AXS connectivity for easy personalisation. It delivers a slick and ultra-precise shifting experience unlike any other, and offers you a wide gear range that’s perfect for every situation. AXS connectivity allows you to check battery status, change component behaviour, personalise controls and get maintenance reminders, all you could ever need from your smart device. The superior braking power of hydraulic disc brakes offers all-weather braking confidence and control on every ride.
The perfect blend of aerodynamic efficiency, disc brake compatible technology and weight, LEVEL DB56 is the ultimate lightweight road racing all-rounder wheelset. A 56mm rim profile and lightweight carbon build delivers outstanding performance on the climbs, the flats, or when descending, which makes them perfect for road racers or triathletes looking for increased speed and stability. Fitted to the wheels is the new standard in road tubeless ready technology, Continental GP5000S TR. Ride faster, more comfortably, and enjoy greater puncture protection thanks to Continental's patented carcass construction that includes the legendary Black Chili compound and Vectran breaker belt.
The Ultra Aero seat post features a truncated aerofoil profile that is aerodynamically optimised to reduce drag in the high-speed airflow disturbed by the rider's leg. A composite shaft absorbs road shocks for a vibration-smoothing ride quality that is further enhanced by a Selle Italia SLR Boost saddle. A reference point for style, performance, comfort, and lightness. A wide selection of saddles for riders of all shapes and sizes is also available in BikeBuilder.
