Dawes says
Built with Reynolds 853, the Sportif Elite uses the same day ride geometry as the Ultra Ti. The 853 tubeset has air hardening qualities which give unrivalled strength to weight properties whilst maintaining the desirable ride characteristics of a steel frame. Equipped for serious riding in all weather, the Elite comes with a complete Shimano 105 gearset, WH-RS10 wheelset, carbon forks, SKS mudguards, PD-R540 clipless pedals, Schwalbe tyres and Selle Italia XO saddle. The perfect partner with which to test your mettle.
