Review: Liv Avail Advanced Pro 2 - excellent endurance bike for women (and currently reduced by £800) cycling LivCyclingUK
On the road, the Avail is both comfortable and stable, and although it's definitely best suited for endurance riding, it never felt like it was slowing me down, even on those shorter rides where you're pushing the pace higher with pals. The more relaxed riding position might not inspire you to sprint or race on it – although I of course tested its speed capabilities, quite a few times – but the bike does still have that little punch to it.
With its relaxed geometry, wide gear range, quite chunky semi-slick tyres and mudguard mounts, it's a very suitable choice for everyday riders.The Avail Advanced Pro 2 is made from Liv's Advanced-Grade Composite carbon fibre, with the beautiful Carbon/Airglow finish you can see in the pics – kind of a glossy black but with raw carbon and a little bit of bling to it, depending on how the light hits it.
The Liv Avail Advanced Pro 2 geometry is based on women-specific fit data, but somewhat resembles that of the award-winning unisex. It includes a slanted top tube for an improved stiffness-to-weight ratio, which also helps if you're at all worried about the bike's standover height. Compared to a size XS Canyon Endurace , for example, the Avail's standover is 34mm lower at 716mm.
The frame's reach is 373mm and the stack 547mm – much like you'd expect with an endurance-focused road bike. The head tube angle is 71.5 degrees and the seat tube angle is 74.5, which again is nothing dramatically different to most on the market.
