The Kinesis 4S Apex road bike is designed for cyclists who value simplicity, reliability, and the advantages of a 1x drivetrain. The 1x gearing system offers ease of use and maintenance, making it perfect for riders looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable biking experience.

As mountain bikes and cyclocross bikes have embraced 1x gearing, and with gravel biking following suit, many road cyclists have started to explore and adopt simpler 1x road setups. Drawing inspiration from the success of the G2 complete gravel bike and influenced by the award-winning Kinesis RTD and GTD road frames, the 4S Apex is tailored to cater to riders of all skill levels and experiences.

The 4S Apex is an ideal everyday road bike, suitable for commuting, unhurried rides in the countryside, and visits to faraway cafes for that perfect coffee-stop. Equipped with versatile gear ratios, it can handle steep climbs and rapid descents with ease. The 4S comes with slightly wider handlebars featuring a 10-degree flare, providing enhanced control and the capability to accommodate bar bags, which have become increasingly popular even on day rides. Additionally, the bike comes ready to ride with mudguards already fitted, making it perfect for all seasons.

The 4S Apex incorporates Kinesis Rider Fit Geometry, ensuring better fit and consistent handling for a wider range of riders. The smallest size features a semi-sloping top tube for increased seat post extension, enhancing comfort. Longer reaches, recommended for use with shorter stems, reduce toe overlap on smaller sizes and enhance handling on larger sizes, eliminating the need for excessively long stems to achieve the correct fit.
