Kestrel Legend SL

Kestrel launched their lightest road bike to date at the 2012 Eurobike show. A Legend SL in a size 55 weighs a mere 780 grams and is promised to be quite stiff, especially where it matters.

We managed to get the Kestrel Legend SL outside for a few minutes.

The Legend SL has a Kestrel EMS fork.

Oval carbon tubular wheels and Hutchinson Carbon Comp tires.

A SRAM Red crank set in the heart of the matter.

SRAM Red derailleurs round out the package.

Oval 900 seat and an Oval post of course.

The transition from the seat cluster to the Kestrel H-Stays.

The Legend SL has a tapered headtube.
