For your reference, this page contains historical product information.

With road-bike geometry and flat-bar comfort, the sporty eXpress is the new-school speed machine with unlimited versatility!

  • Ready yourself for a triathlon or a group century ride or throw on panniers for a weekend tour
  • eXpress features an AN6 aluminum frame, carbon-fiber fork, fast Shimano R550 wheels and comfortable Ritchey Comp flat handlebar
  • Our AN6 frame is lightweight, strong and vertically stiff, a terrific combination for quick acceleration and efficient ascents
  • EVO carbon-fiber fork, with integrated alloy steerer, damps bothersome high-frequency road vibrations and enhances wheel stability
  • Lightweight Shimano R550 rims and hubs reduce rotational inertia, a key benefit when the need for quick acceleration is in your immediate future
  • Mountain bike-style handlebar positions the rider upright, thereby reducing the stress to hands, neck and back often associated with sporty road bikes
  • Angle-adjustable stem lets you set handlebar height for maximum comfort; Ritchey quality means it won't slip or creak after a couple hard rides
  • Bar ends help you stand over the pedals to power up steep ascents
  • Nine cogs and a triple chainring provide 27 speeds to match any hill or headwind; Shimano derailleurs and shifters perform smoothly and reliably
  • Two-piece crankset with integrated cups weighs less and is more easily maintained than conventional cranksets
  • Puncture-resistant , smooth-rolling and lugged with all-weather traction, the Vittoria Randonneur is the holy grail of tire functionality
  • Accommodates a rear rack and fenders fore and aft

After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.
