Carbon Road – Panda Pearl - SRAM Rival AXS 2x
Full Carbon. Fully Wireless. $2,799.
current price, £2,133.00
The Carbon Road in Panda Pearl is a pearl white finish with raw carbon deliberately left exposed on the downtube, headtube logos, and fork. It's not a detail — it's the design. The contrast between the white paint and the carbon weave makes clear exactly what this bike is made of, and why it rides the way it does.
Underneath that finish is the same carbon platform currently being raced at a high level, paired with a fully wireless SRAM Rival E1 groupset and DT Swiss A1800 wheels as standard. Choose your wheelset — then ride.
Platform Highlights
- Panda Pearl Finish — Pearl white with exposed carbon on the downtube, headtube logos, and fork. The material is part of the look.
- Tire Clearance up to 32mm — Fast-rolling and practical for mixed-surface days and real-world training.
- Fully Internal Cable Routing — Every cable disappears into the frame for a clean aesthetic and reduced drag.
- T47 Threaded Bottom Bracket — Greater stiffness than press-fit, better bearing longevity, and straightforward home maintenance.
- UDH-Compatible Derailleur Hanger — Future-proof and universally replaceable. No hunting for proprietary hangers.

FAQ
Rider-owned in Phoenix, AZ since 2009. 5-year frame warranty on steel, aluminum & titanium · most in-stock bikes ship in 1 business day · 4.8/5 from 16,000+ reviews.
How does my bike show up, and do I need a shop?
That depends on how you order it:
- With Pro-Build (select models: $79.99, or $129.99 on Carbon Road). Our mechanics in Phoenix face the frame, set up and bleed the hydraulic brakes, index the drivetrain, cut the steerer to our stock length and torque-check everything before it goes in the box. That's the shop work that usually runs $150–$300 locally. You bolt on the bars, seatpost, front wheel and pedals, set your hoods and wrap your tape: about 20–30 minutes with a hex set and a torque wrench. Pro-Build adds a 1–2 week build queue.
- Without Pro-Build. Your bike ships mostly assembled, but it needs a full assembly and tune by a professional mechanic before it's ride-ready. Carbon, titanium and AXS builds that skip Pro-Build arrive unassembled with an uncut steerer, so your shop can build them to your exact fit.
Either way, a professional build is safer, rides better, and unlocks our better warranty tier (see below).
What does the warranty cover?
Every State bike comes with our Standard Limited Warranty against manufacturing defects for the original owner. No registration required.
- Steel, aluminum & titanium frames and forks: 5 years
- Carbon frames and forks: 1 year (2 years with ProBuild Advantage)
- Non-consumable parts (cranks, wheels, hubs, bars, stem, seatpost, pedals): 1 year
Not covered: wear items (tires, tubes, chains, brake pads, grips, bar tape, saddles, spokes, paint), rust on RAW finishes, crash damage, and labor or shipping costs. Full warranty details
What is ProBuild Advantage, and how do I get it?
It's our "you did it right" warranty tier for bikes that were professionally assembled and registered within 30 days of delivery. You get everything in the Standard warranty, plus:
- 2 years on carbon frames and forks, instead of 1
- Priority claim review: ProBuild claims go to the front of the line
- Faster help with shifting or braking issues, without the "did you tighten that bolt?" back-and-forth
- Shipping perks on approved warranty replacement parts
- Discounted pricing on a replacement frame or bike for up to 5 years from delivery, if a crash wins
To activate it: add Pro-Build when you order, or have a local shop assemble your bike and keep the receipt. Then register your bike within 30 days of delivery with your serial number (engraved under the bottom bracket shell) and proof of assembly. If you ordered Pro-Build, our mechanics already did the build. You just register.
When will my bike ship?
Most in-stock bikes ship within 1 business day, and you'll get tracking as soon as yours is on its way. Adding Pro-Build puts your bike in our build queue for 1–2 weeks before it ships. Shipping is calculated at checkout from your location and the size of your order, and bikes go out by UPS or FedEx Ground.
Outside the U.S.? We ship worldwide, and duties and taxes are paid at checkout, so nothing is due on delivery. Shipping policy
What if it's not right? Returns & exchanges
You have 30 days from delivery to request a return or exchange. Bikes need to be unused, in like-new condition and in their original packaging.
- Refunds: a return label fee is deducted ($45 for complete bikes), and original shipping isn't refundable.
- Exchanges: issued as store credit. The return label fee applies here too.
- Package Protection Plan (add it at checkout): covers loss and damage in transit, removes return label fees and deductions, and extends the window for exchanges and store credit to 60 days. Refunds stay at 30 days.
Pro-Build and other service work can't be refunded once it's done. Final sale, clearance and limited-run items can't be returned, and neither can international orders.
Can I pay over time, or use HSA/FSA funds?
Yes. Financing with Bread Pay splits your bike into monthly payments, and you can pay it off early with no penalty (subject to credit approval). You may also be able to use pre-tax HSA/FSA dollars through Truemed. A short intake at checkout checks your eligibility, which depends on your plan. HSA/FSA guide
Which size do I need?
Geometry charts, size guides and full build specs for every model are on our Size Charts & Specs page. Between sizes, or running a tall stack or long stem? Get in touch before you order. Pro-Build cuts the steerer to our stock length, and that can't be undone.
Can I see one in person or get it built locally?
Use our dealer & shop locator to find a shop near you for a look in person, assembly or a tune-up.
Something arrived damaged or missing?
Email info@statebicycle.com within 30 days of delivery with your order number and photos of the item, the box damage and the shipping label, and our team will take care of you. If a part has failed, submit a warranty claim. You can also reach us at 1-855-55-STATE or through our contact page.
Customer Reviews
The bike that was built is amazing! I’ve gotten so many compliments regarding the looks and the quality put into the bike. I’m able to ride longer distance and climb hills with ease. The electronic shifting makes everything so much easier. The built-in power meter allows me to track how I’m doing and how to better train. I feel the road vibrations and bumps a lot less on this bike. Thanks for putting together a high-quality bike!
As my first proper road bike, the Carbon Road has completely exceeded my expectations. The bike is lightweight, responsive, and incredibly fun to ride. The SRAM drivetrain performs flawlessly, delivering smooth and precise shifting that makes every ride more enjoyable.
Whether I’m pushing the pace on longer rides or just getting out for a quick spin, the bike feels fast, efficient, and confidence-inspiring. For anyone looking to get into road cycling without sacrificing performance, I can confidently say this bike has been an outstanding choice. I’m extremely happy with the purchase.
Side note: The Panda Pearl is awesome in the sun, it’s slightly on the warmer side of white but I actually prefer that over bright white.
The State Road with Rival and Zipp 404s is hands down one of the most nimble and fastest bikes that I have had the pleasure of riding
This bike is an amazing value. Be aware that it comes as a frame kit and parts. Assembly is best left to the seasoned home mechanic or your local bike shop. If you pay more for a “similar” build from any of the big brands, you probably deserve to separated from your extra hard earned money.
This is an incredible bike. It was time for an upgrade and the price for this bike was a no-brainer. The same level bike is gonna cost your thousands more elsewhere.
The frame is solid and light, the aero handlebars are a great touch with the flat makes it very comfortable. I had never had electronic shifting before and the Sram components shift quickly with a bunch of ways to personalize. I opted for the Zipp wheel and this baby slices through the air.
It looks absolutely amazing, its fast and light, from a great company at a incredible price. What more do you need?
