Close-fitting cutout to shield the rear wheel and achieve the most speed.
No oversized gaps between front tire & downtube for better airflow transition and less turbulence.
The original Exploro set today’s standard for up to 51mm tire clearance. The Ultra has up to 61mm (650b tires)!
Upper downtube necks down to 60mm to pick up the airflow coming off the front tire.
Lower downtube aero profile is 75mm wide to fully shield water bottle.
Reduced depth on smaller sizes to keep frame compliant and keep space for bottles.
Fork crown shapes haven’t changed much since brakes were attached there. Now that we have disc brakes, we don’t need that bulk of material and can reshape the crown for better strength, stiffness and weight. Plus better aerodynamics.
With the shorter crown, we can make our forks 25mm (1 inch) shorter than other gravel bikes. Exactly the same as a road fork. This offers better stiffness, lower weight, an easier steering geometry and better aerodynamics.
Dropping the drive-side chainstay improves tire & crank clearance. Dropping the other side as well creates a much more efficient structure behind the BB for higher stiffness & strength as well as lower weight.
Most of our complete bikes come with threaded BBs for the best alignment and to avoid any issues. Yet we avoid gluing threaded alloy rings into the carbon (added weight, complexity and debonding risk).Read more here.
Standard frames require an adaptor to use a 160mm brake rotor. We have integrated that into the frame, meaning you don’t need any extra pieces to attach the brake.
Standard forks require a flip-flop adaptor to set the correct brake rotor size. Our direct-mount pre-sets the caliper for 160mm rotors without any extra pieces.
Invisible until you need them. Perfect for our custom fenders.
Self-adjusting bolt angle for higher clamping forces with lower torque.
The seattube is kept aero yet it fits a round 27.2mm seatpost so you have many round, dropper or suspension post options.
