MACHINE HOURS
Our custom manufacturing process from 3D Printing and CNC machining to polishing and painting requires over 130 hours of precision work by advanced machines.
The Archetype is the result of ten years of evolution and refinement. It embodies craftsmanship, performance, and pushing boundaries.
Aerodynamic Prowess
Compared to our Icon Superleggera, the Archetype is 6–8 watts faster across 0–15° yaw angles at 35 km/h. For an average rider outputting 200 watts, this represents a significant advantage.
At higher speeds, the gains are even more dramatic: at 50 km/h, the Archetype slashes aerodynamic drag by an astonishing 18–25 watts.
Tyre Clearance
With clearance for 34mm tyres you can create a build around larger tyres and wider rims extracting even more comfort, grip and confidence.
Power Transfer
The Bastion Archetype delivers torsional stiffness and power transfer unrivalled in the industry. Every pedal stroke delivers instant acceleration, propelling you forward with an efficiency that must be experienced to believe.
Customisation
Every bike is as unique as you are.
We believe perfection is subjective and your voice is the one that counts. That the ultimate ride comes from both technology and craft. Through our exclusive design portal, guided by our talented designers, we help you create your dream bike. See what other Bastion owners have created.
