Introducing the New Dawes Lightning DT

IMPROVED : New frame design fits more comfortable, wider tires. Well equipped with 700x28c tires, wider tires are more effective at killing road buzz and discomfort. For even more comfort and durability, some riders use their own wider tires up to 700x30c.

Handbuilt advanced engineered and lightweight Altair 1 aluminum compact frame. Advanced Shimano Sora and MicroShift has 24 speeds, gives you most of the shifting performance of a Shimano drivetrain without the budget biting price.

Versatile Comfort and Performance
The Dawes Lightning DT can be set up for a comfortable upright position. Want to get more serious? Turn a few bolts and you have a lower position and a competitive racing machine while still having the low gears you need to flatten most any hill or mountain pass and headwind.
