Aquila Cycles

Aquila Cycles began in the late 1980s, born from the spirit of Racer Sportif, a cornerstone of Canadian road cycling in Toronto since 1978. More than 40 years of history and passion go into every bike.

The idea

The art of fit

Aquila's founders built the brand on one idea: a precise fit. Every Aquila is designed to support and suit its rider, so it performs better and rides more comfortably.

The result

Made to measure

When your bike is tailored to your measurements, you ride better. And when you ride better, you ride more. That's the legacy of Aquila: tradition and innovation in one bike.

Realspeed

Carbon wheels designed for precision and predictability.

Realspeed rim airflow study
Designed with CFD

Calm in the wind

We design our wheels for precision and predictability. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) lets us predict and refine each rim's aero performance. Instead of a conventional teardrop profile, the rims use smooth inner-radius curves, for a stable, predictable response and control in all conditions.
