Riders who race or ride fast on rolling and flat roads and are happy with a long, low fit. Not the pick if you want a tall stack.

Aero racers. Addict RC if you want light; Addict Gravel if you want dirt.
Scott's aero race bike — a benchmark for 'this is how you do aero' in recent reviews. Stiff, fast, still a race stack/reach chart.
