This lightweight Aerodynamic Carbon frame weighs only 9kgs
The J-Air Fuoco 15 is equipped with a full Shimano 15 R7 road drivetrain. 15 sits beneath Dura-Ace, Ultegra and Di2 in the Shimano road hierarchy. During the test ride both at the front and rear, the gears shift cleanly, smoothly and quietly. I never missed a gear or felt the shifter being unresponsive when I needed to change gears quickly. The 2x11-Speed integrated Shimano 15 shifters were easy to use with feather light pushes to change the gears.

Java's designs are cutting edge and futuristic with smooth welding of the tubes. The Bicycle I test rode came in a Titanium Grey matte finish frame with Dark Grey as the secondary colour. The flat aero tube profiles along with the bladed carbon fork and an integrated seat tube clamp immensely enhanced the aesthetics of this Road Bike.

The Deca Disc brakes handle the braking power on the J-Air Fuoco. These brakes were lightweight components and powerful on flat tarmacs and balanced even on wet roads.The Deca Alloy drop handlebars was of perfect length for optimum control over the Bicycle on steep turns and also gives a compact riding posture.
