FRAME:
This bike literally cuts through the wind. No head tube widens the frame, and the ultra flush Aero Hinge is seamlessly integrated into the aerodynamic profile of the frame. Our TT01 is the absolute time trial machine. The frameset is 100% made to measure in Switzer­land: with the 3P system, all of the rider’s measurements are built directly into the frame. The rotating Aero Clamp allows a precise adjustment of the handlebar position and with the Sliding Airfoils System, the seat height can be adjusted to give the rider perfect position on the bike.

Carbon fibers make extremely light and rigid components. There is good reason why in Formula 1 racing, entire car bodies are made of this wonder material.

The entire seat tube of the Blade Speed Frame the has been designed as a wing profile. Together with the specially developed seat post they form a continuous wing for minimum air resistance.

A hinge instead of a head tube: the handlebar stem creates an aerodynamic front end and is no longer taken through the ball bearing, so the ball bearing is much smaller and the whole head becomes an integrated unit. The patented Aero Hinge offers virtually no air resistance.

The UCI requires a thickness of 25 mm and does not allow any profiles slimmer than 1:3. By using a 75 mm wing profile, on the limits of what is permitted, the various elements blend together into a perfectly aerodynamic whole.
