SRAM Force AXS Bike

Regular price $7,500

The ECHO isn’t an everyday racing beast. It’s actually two everyday racing beasts, each with a distinct personality.  The SRAM Force AXS is our favorite build as it hits the best balance in performance where you absolutely need it and spares a few of the gram shaving splurges on the Red group. The wireless 12-speed shifting provides a huge range of gearing, with precision and reliability never available before on mechanical drivetrain systems.  

At the heart of the ECHO’s genetic code is pure unadulterated speed - the ability to transform from a road race thoroughbred to a versatile, agile gravel bike with a simple switch of flip chips at the front and rear dropouts. These eccentric chips and corresponding dropout design allow the rider to easily change the bike geometry, effectively changing the chainstay length and fork length by 1 cm. The difference transforms the bike from a road machine with 415mm chainstay length, 368mm fork length, 73-degree headtube angle, and tire clearance for up to 30mm, to a gravel bike with 425mm chainstay length, 378mm fork length, 72.5mm headtube angle, and 40mm tire clearance - all within a 10-minute switch of dropout chips. Pure road performance one day, gravel race-ready the next. One bike. No compromise.

The ECHO Stem is a fully integrated system designed in tandem with the fork. It conceals the cables while using a standard headset allowing the rider to easily swap stem lengths, and it works with a growing list of handlebars designed with integrated cables in mind. The ECHO stem system is the simplest and most user-friendly on the market today. The cables run through a channel on the top of the stem and are concealed by a faceplate, top cap, and the steerer tube. Headset adjustment is moved from the traditional position at the top of the stem to a threaded portion on the bottom of the stem, effectively increasing the steerer clamp length to provide headset preload, much like a threaded headset. The Echo stem is available in 6 sizes at 10mm increments (80-130mm) and is a -6 degree drop. Like all things designed by Allied, the ECHO stem is made in our Bentonville factory.

Have a Question?

TRUE ALL-ROAD.

Eccentric chips in the ECHO’s dropouts transition it from a tight, reactive road-racing machine to gravel versatility with a kicked-out wheelbase and raked-out fork.

ALWAYS TIDY. NEVER CLEAN.

Built in-house and painted to match, our ECHO Stem reduces clamping forces, conceals cables and hoses, and accommodates a growing list of internally routed handlebars. We like our cockpits coated in gravel dust but free of clutter.

2x, 1x, your choice

The ECHO is compatible with all current electric road and gravel drivetrain options from Shimano and SRAM.

🤩🤩🤩

Amazing bike, blew me away from the first pedal stroke. Even in gravel mode, it is more stable and peppy than my old Bianchi (a 2012 Sempre Pro), and like 1,000 times more comfortable. Stuck to tarmac, unpaved roads and trails are a mess around here, we had a good amount of rain in the last few days. Looking forward to taking it off tarmac as well as setting it up with road tires.

Sales people helped me with the fit and it was perfect!

Does everything

I've been riding my ECHO for just over a year and I love it as much today as the day I got her. She's a dream on road and gravel. And great customer support from Cole Tininenko.

Best Bike I have Owned

I simply love the bike from the clean lines (with hidden cables) to the subdued graphics. The Echo in my opinion is the perfect go anywhere or do anything bike to have. I was also very impressed with the purchase experience. Cole worked with me to get the perfect setup. He always was patient and answered all of my questions. I feel like the bike is dialed in just for me. I came from another brand (which I really liked) but it had a bunch of proprietary parts. With the Echo I can switch at just about any part that I would like! The bike is pure quality and I can’t wait to put the miles on it! Don’t hesitate to contact Allied if you have questions, they were always there for me. Happy riding.

Exactly what I was looking for.

I ride for fitness and the joy of being outside. I often ride between 60/40 and 80/20 road to gravel (or dirt) while other rides are all road. So I was looking for a bike that would deliver on mixed surfaces but still be reasonably fast on pavement. I also love the idea of an American made frame and Allied's whole philosophy about bike manufacturing. (I did a lot of research).
The Echo is everything I desired. I am keeping it set up for gravel and even so it is quite fast on roads. It accelerates really well from a stop and cruises along nicely at higher speeds on long flat stretches. The bike climbs very well on pavement but stays grounded on steeper and trickier gravel hills. It even recently got me through an unexpected 30 ft long ice patch without incident. On long descents the Echo feels super fast but keeps the feeling of a solid connection to the road.
However, when I transition from road to gravel or dirt the bike seems to come even more to life. With the 40 x 700 WTB Vulpine tires the Echo rides like a really lightweight and super quick mountain bike, although I am not trying to ride mountain bike trails or single track with it. I have also not yet experienced any discomfort or fatigue that one sometimes associates with carbon frames (but I am not riding more than 25 miles per ride at this point).
All in all the Echo has turned out to be exactly what I wanted. And the customer service at Allied is really great. Both Cole and Will were extremely helpful and informative during my decision making process.
So definitely 5 stars.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention that I have been getting compliments on my bike out on the road !

Quiver killer

Love my echo. Bike arrived super dialed and ready to go out of the box. The paint is so nice, I'm scared to scratch it! Currently riding some 32mm Corsa tires, and the handling is superb. Very excited to get ripping down some gravel roads, and plan on lacing up a 2nd set of wheels. A true quiver killer! I was previously riding a 2018 Alfa with mechanical/rim, and this feels like such an upgrade. Love the fully integrated look
