Experience the difference with the all-new Avail Advanced Range. Through rigorous testing, we've meticulously fine-tuned every detail for optimal endurance road performance. Elevate your cycling experience with the Avail Advanced range: lighter, stiffer, and faster for your journey ahead.

Stiffness was assessed using the protocols established by Germany’s TOUR magazine with size medium framesets. Each new frame was tested with its stock fork, providing the most accurate measure of how the bike performs and ensuring that performance translates to real-world riding.

Our testing determined how much the complete frameset flexed torsionally under load. Each frame was locked at the rear dropouts with lateral force applied to the fork. More frame stiffness means better cornering and response to rider input on the road. One of the key findings is that the flagship Avail Advanced Pro provides up to 19 percent greater transmission stiffness than its top-of-the-line predecessor, the 2023 Avail Advanced Pro.

Increased frame stiffness means better power transmission, enabling the you to reach and maintain higher speeds with less effort. The combination of lower weight and higher stiffness adds up to unrivaled overall efficiency.

For this comparison test, Liv defines a frameset as follows:

  • Size medium, unpainted, production frame
  • Production fork (unpainted, uncut)
  • Headset/expander/top cap
  • Seatpost (seatpost included with frameset)
  • Seat clamp
  • Front and rear derailleur hanger/clamps
  • All production hardware (water bottle bolts, etc.)
