Improved lighter frame for 2010, optimized following the HDS principles, featuring double-butted tubes for rigidity where it matters and lightness throughout. An efficient, enjoyable ride, whether commuting daily or exploring backroads on weekends.
A new top tube and redesigned rear triangle make for a stronger but lighter frame, an efficient ride for the daily commute as well as on longer trips.

• HDS: Horizontal Dual System
The Horizontal Dual System has ensured that the top part of our frames absorb vibration while the lower section fully delivers power to the rear wheel. Dividing the frame into two horizontally segmented parts reduces frame weight significantly.
• Compared to a frame built with conventional tubes, weight can be reduced by as much as 20% while retaining all the stiffness and stability of a heavier frame.
Documents :
• Well-chosen, quality components
A well-balanced frameset calls for a well-balanced group of components:
• Xero Shawla aero-profile rims.
• Shimano Ultegra derailleur.
• Shimano 105 brake/shift levers.
