Avenue Empire is the first Avenue on a full carbon frame. A model that has all the essential Avenue ingredients and even more. Empire is our lightest, most efficient, and most accomplished bike in this year's range. The lightweight carbon frame has been under development for a long time in order to live up to the Avenue name. This means, you can expect an exceptionally aerodynamic bike, which makes the daily commute a true joy.

Empire is available in 2 different variants. This model is equipped with a high performing Shimano 105 groupset, which is originally developed for road bikes.

Rounded corners

Empires rounded corners are a part of Avenue's DNA, adding stiffness to the frame.

Aerodynamic fork

Empire's fork has been designed based on aero-principles, which reduce drag.

Internal cable routing
