Designed using the same aerodynamic principles as the top-tier SLR 9.6, the carbon frame features aero-optimised tube shapes developed through CFD and wind tunnel testing. These shapes help reduce drag without adding unnecessary weight, giving the bike a smooth, fast feel on rolling roads and longer endurance rides.Dropped seat stays and an integrated seat clamp contribute to reduced vibration and improved comfort, while the carefully tuned carbon lay-up keeps the frame responsive when you put the power down. Paired with a full carbon fork, the SLR 8.9 105 Womens maintains a stable, predictable ride feel whether you’re climbing, descending or riding at tempo on the flats. Clearance for up to 28mm tyres and hidden mudguard mounts support year-round versatility.The biggest upgrade from previous versions is the move to Shimano’s R7000 105 2×11 groupset. This brings lighter action shifting, improved ergonomics and a wider, more closely spaced gear range across the 50/34 chainset and 11–30 cassette. It offers excellent efficiency for tackling varied routes, with smooth, reliable shifts even when riding under load. Shimano 105 levers pair with Tektro R315 long-drop rim brakes, offering balanced stopping power and enough clearance for wider tyres or mudguards.The bike rolls on tubeless-ready alloy wheels, offering an easy upgrade path for riders wanting to switch to a tubeless setup in the future. Vittoria Zaffiro Pro tyres provide dependable grip, low rolling resistance and good puncture protection—ideal for training miles and all-round road riding.To ensure a supportive fit, the SLR 8.9 105 Womens uses contact points informed by extensive pressure mapping and real-world testing. The saddle, bar width and crank lengths have been selected to better suit typical women’s fit requirements, promoting comfort and helping reduce frontal area for improved aerodynamics.Light, responsive and confidence inspiring, the SLR 8.9 105 Womens delivers a balanced mix of speed, comfort and handling, making it a great choice for riders stepping up from alloy, building fitness or joining regular club rides.
