NO.22 REACTOR AERO IS A TITANIUM DIAMOND

The No. 22 Reactor Aero turned heads at the 2024 MADE Show, and it’s easy to see why. 

This bold mix of 3D-printed titanium engineering and sleek aero design is unlike anything else on the road. From its integrated carbon + titanium cockpit to its precision-crafted frame, every detail just looks totally dialled in.

Sleek is the word.

Hand-finished in New York, it’s the top bike in the very interesting No22 stable. Their gravel bikes also look very nice.

Pre-orders for the Reactor Aero are open now with a $1000 deposit, and frameset pricing is expected to be around $12,500.

Have to say, one of the most interesting bikes I’ve have seen in a long time! 

The company just gave an update on August 22nd (fittingly!):

AUGUST 22, 2025 UPDATE:

No. 22 Bicycle Company unveiled the highly anticipated Reactor Aero ‘V2’ at the MADE Bike Show in Portland. Having been blown away by the reception and number of deposits after ‘V1’ debuted at last year’s show, the No. 22 team have worked tirelessly to refine the design and production methodology to a finished product that is nearing production form.

V2 Updates and Improvements:

  • Complete overhaul of the aerodynamic form and profiling in response to the UCI’s latest guidelines.
  • Bespoke, intricately designed and machined, titanium and carbon bar/stem combo and headset.
  • New aerodynamically refined seat tube and custom titanium seatpost utilizing a novel approach to rider comfort and aerodynamics.
  • Most crucially, a partnership with industry leading 3D sintering partner, RAM3D of New Zealand. Together both brands have created a 3D printed “Parts Kit” which will be fully welded, aligned, and assembled by No. 22 in their New York facility to exacting standards.

Steps to be completed before final production include:

  • Wind tunnel testing to validate the current CFD modeling and refine the bike’s aerodynamic properties.
  • Structural and ride quality testing to ensure the bike delivers titanium’s hallmark feel and durability.
  • Finalize production of Ti and carbon fiber components.

No22, if you are listening, I’d live to test one!
