State Bicycle Co. Carbon Road SL
Super Light. Raw Carbon. ~300g Lighter. Wireless and Ready.
"The Lightest Way to Ride the Race Frame."
The Carbon Road SL — SL for Super Light — is the full carbon platform State has raced at a high level, rebuilt with an advanced T800 & T1000 carbon layup that saves approximately 300 grams over the Standard frame at size M. Part of that weight comes from the premium layup, and part comes from deleting paint entirely. The finish is raw carbon under a UV protective coating, with minimal oil-slick decals. The weave is not hidden. It is the point. Underneath it sits a full carbon road and race frame with a T47 threaded bottom bracket, fully internal cable routing, a UDH-compatible derailleur hanger, and clearance for tires up to 32mm.
Every SL build ships with a fully integrated carbon cockpit as standard — a $249.99 upgrade on Standard models, included here in the box, saving another 180g and cleaning up the aero front end. Shifting is fully wireless. SRAM Rival E1 AXS runs a 2x setup with no derailleur cables to route, snag, or maintain, and the bike rolls on Vittoria Corsa N.EXT 28c tubeless-ready tires. You choose how it rolls underneath you: the 30mm DT Swiss A1800 alloy wheelset, or the 40mm ENVE AR40 carbon upgrade that drops a complete medium to 16 lb 11 oz. Built per size by professional fitters. Ready to point at the next horizon.
"The SL started with a question. How light can we make this frame without changing how it rides? We answered it with a T800 and T1000 layup that drops about 300 grams at size M, then deleted the paint and left the carbon raw under a UV coat. Every SL also gets the integrated carbon cockpit as standard — the same upgrade riders pay extra for on the Standard. Nothing about going light softens the platform. Wireless Rival AXS keeps the front end clean, and the choice between DT Swiss and ENVE wheels lets the rider decide how light and how fast they want to go."
THIS BIKE IS FOR YOU IF...
- You want a true race platform without giving up tubeless 28c comfort on real-world roads.
- You are done routing and bleeding shift cables. Wireless Rival AXS keeps the cockpit clean.
- You want the lightest version of the platform — a T800/T1000 layup roughly 300g lighter at size M, finished in bare raw carbon.
- You want to choose your wheels, not accept whatever was bolted on at the factory.
- You want a bike built to your size by professional fitters, not pulled off a one-size-fits-most shelf.
RAW CARBON. NO PAINT. LESS WEIGHT.
The Finish Is Part of the Weight Savings
The SL skips paint entirely. The frame is finished in raw carbon weave under a UV protective coating with minimal oil-slick decals — visually clean, structurally uncompromising. Deleting the paint is part of how the SL trims roughly 300 grams over the Standard at size M; the advanced T800 & T1000 layup does the rest.
The frame routes every cable internally for a clean line from cockpit to dropout, threads its bottom bracket on a T47 standard for a creak-free interface, and carries a UDH-compatible derailleur hanger so a replacement is easy to find anywhere. The full carbon fork ships with an uncut steerer, set to your fit at assembly.
FULLY WIRELESS. FULLY SRAM RIVAL AXS.
2x Range, No Cables
The Carbon Road runs SRAM Rival E1 AXS, a fully wireless 2x drivetrain. A 48/35t crankset up front pairs with an XG-1250 10-36T 12-speed cassette out back, giving you a tight, usable spread for flat-road speed and the low gears for long climbs.
The Rival AXS E1 MAX 36T rear derailleur and Rival AXS E1 front derailleur are powered by EP Powerpack 2 batteries, with two on the bike. Wireless shifters mean no shift housing, no internal cable runs to bleed, and a cockpit that stays clean. Push the button. It shifts.
*Note: Pedals are not included. The cranks accept any standard 9/16" threaded pedal.

Choose Your Wheels
30mm DT Swiss A1800 alloy at 1,691g, or upgrade to the 40mm ENVE AR40 full carbon at 1,515g — ENVE's carbon wheel released February 2026. The ENVE saves 176g and brings a complete M to 16 lb 11 oz.
Integrated Carbon Cockpit
Every SL ships with the fully integrated carbon cockpit as standard — a $249.99 upgrade on Standard models, saving 180g for a cleaner aero front end. Professional fitters set stem and bar per size; a Fizik Tempo Aliante R5 saddle finishes it.
WHY THIS BUILD MATTERS
Super-Light Carbon
An advanced T800 & T1000 layup saves about 300g over the Standard frame at size M, finished in raw carbon with no paint. T47 threaded BB, internal routing, and a UDH hanger make it stiff, quiet, and easy to live with.
Wireless Simplicity
SRAM Rival E1 AXS removes every shift cable. A 48/35t crank and 10-36T 12-speed cassette deliver the range, with EP Powerpack 2 batteries keeping it running.
Your Wheels, Your Weight
Start on 30mm DT Swiss A1800 alloy or step up to 40mm ENVE AR40 carbon. The ENVE wheelset is 176g lighter and drops a complete M to 16 lb 11 oz.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the DT Swiss and ENVE wheel packages?
The DT Swiss A1800 Spline is a 30mm aero-optimized alloy wheelset at 1,691g, with Aero Comp II straightpull spokes, hidden nipples, and a 370 hub with Ratchet LN instant engagement. The ENVE AR40 upgrade is a 40mm full carbon, F1 wind-tunnel-tested wheelset at 1,515g, 176g lighter, with a patent-pending Wide Hookless Bead and Innerdrive hub. A complete size M weighs 17 lb 5 oz on DT Swiss and 16 lb 11 oz on ENVE.
How does the SRAM Rival AXS drivetrain work?
SRAM Rival E1 is a fully wireless AXS 2x system. The 48/35t crank pairs with an XG-1250 10-36T 12-speed cassette, and the Rival AXS E1 MAX 36T rear derailleur and Rival AXS E1 front derailleur are powered by EP Powerpack 2 batteries. There are no shift cables to route or bleed. The wireless shifters talk directly to the derailleurs.
What size tires can the Carbon Road fit?
The frame clears tires up to 32mm. It ships with Vittoria Corsa N.EXT 28c tubeless-ready tires, which balance grip and comfort on real roads with the rolling speed of a race tire. You can run them tubeless or with tubes.
Does the Carbon Road come with pedals?
No. Pedals are not included. The cranks accept any standard 9/16" threaded pedal, so you can fit the road or clipless pedals you already use. Every SL ships with the fully integrated carbon cockpit as standard — a $249.99 upgrade on Standard models — and a Fizik Tempo Aliante R5 saddle.
Why does the carbon steerer ship uncut?
The full carbon fork ships with an uncut steerer so it can be cut to your exact fit at assembly. A carbon steerer cannot be re-lengthened once it is cut, so the final length is set during professional setup. This is one reason professional assembly is strongly recommended.
Does the Carbon Road require professional assembly?
It ships unassembled from Phoenix, AZ, and professional assembly is strongly recommended. Setup includes crank, wheel, and cockpit installation, cutting the carbon fork steerer to fit, internal routing, derailleur indexing, and brake setup. A certified mechanic ensures the carbon and the hydraulic disc brakes are set up safely.
