With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

The ASTR brings all the features of the ASTR RS to an affordable price point: from aerodynamic improvements to modern gravel geometry.
The ASTR is ready for every fast ride or gravel race on every type of terrain. Just like the ASTR RS, the ASTR has a tire clearance of 47 - 52 mm (52 millimeters with a 1x setup and 47 millimeters with a 2x setup) for increased grip and comfort.
Modern performance geometry also requires more stability due to increasingly rough terrain combined with higher speeds. A 71.5-degree headtube angle ensures you have faster steering. The ASTR features a steeper seat tube (74 degrees), making climbing performance and power transfer better than with a less steep seat tube.
The product developers kept the chainstays as short as possible to accommodate tires up to 52 millimeters without losing the feeling of responsiveness when accelerating. In addition, the bottom bracket is a bit lower than on bikes that bet on comfort. This ensures you have more stability at high speed. Finally, the head height is lower, so you sit more aerodynamically on the bike. In summary, this boils down to a modern competitive geometry, tailored for the ambitious gravel racer.
