V+1 Race Edition Force eTap XPLR 12 speed

The Vielo V+1 Race Edition is our lightest and most versatile high-performance gravel bike designed for cyclists who demand both speed and durability across varied terrains. The V+1 embodies a blend of cutting-edge technology and meticulous craftsmanship, tailored to meet the rigorous needs of gravel riding and bikepacking adventures.

Always bespoke builds
Each bike will be built to order, to your desired specification. You pick the parts that fit you from the start. Ensuring the correct bar width, stem length, crank length and chainring size for you. In this case we'll be building it with a SRAM Force AXS wireless group set. During the building phase we even send you a time laps video of your bike being built. 

The Vielo V+1 is available in 3 versions.

• The Race Edition – 880g raw frame with fully internally routed cables and exploding V+1 pink design.
• The Alto Frame – 880g raw frame with universal cable routing available in Blue stone or Rock salt colours.
• The Strato frame – 1100 raw frame with Universal cable routing available in Plum and Frost green. 

This being the Race Edition frame it’s fully integrated cable routing means it’s a super clean look. No cables visible. In fact no cable holes at all! It’s exclusively designed for SRAM’s wireless group sets

All 3 versions of the V+1 use the same geometry and frame shape, the only difference between Alto and Strato is the material used in construction to achieve the weights. The race edition is the same material as the Alto, but with no cables visible as they’re fully integrated.

The Race edition has an ultra special paint job of exploding V+1 logos transitioning from orange to acid pink. From a far it looks like a light colour transition but up close you can see the logos and details. It’s lush.
