Technology
We're constantly striving to make our bikes lighter and faster. After all, light, fast bikes are easier and more fun to ride.
While everything is verified by our team riders and other trusted testers on the road to make sure it delivers in the real world, technological advances start with our carefully selected manufacturers.
Our carbon bikes are built by the best small volume high quality factory we could find. Because they're small we get a lot of input in how they're made and we're a valuable partner. Not least because as a trade off they get to sell on our cutting edge designs to other less innovative brands. In fact we've even seen our bikes being used with different stickers on in the Tour.
For our latest Nano road frame we've really pushed the current limits on composite builds to produce a truly superlight frame. Our new Exocet aero bike has also been developed with the fluid dynamics scientists at Sheffield University to make it as drag free as possible.
It's not just carbon we concentrate on either. Van Nicholas have developed a whole new set of manipulated shape stays for our titanium bikes too. Our new alloy SL is triple butted for minimum weight and maximum stiffness to suit our Pro team powerhouses.
Because there's no reason riders on a budget shouldn't get the same attention to detail as everyone else we've been tweaking our DN6 cro mo tubeset, dropout designs, fixtures and other features for over a decade too. We're constantly working on new stuff to keep us ahead of the curve too, so keep your eyes peeled for totally new race, track and maybe even a Sportive frame shortly too.
