BLINK AND YOU'LL MIST IT
Pure Speed a brand piece. TT bikes showcase a brand’s aerodynamic expertise. Built to push speed limits and innovation. A top-tier TT bike helps riders win major races, boosting
brand visibility. TT victories prove leadership in speed. Designed for UCI TT, also suits triathlons up to half Ironman.
We began the development process by experimenting over the existing bike with the latest UCI chord length rules. We tested over 50 different iterations in CFD to get an understanding of the aerodynamics. Once we understood how the changes affected the coefficient of drag, we started developing our aero concept.
WIND TUNNEL VALIDATION
Combined performance of cockpit and frameset saves 0.006 m2 (6 Counts) over current platform based on wind tunnel results. 0.006 m2 @ 50 km/h = 10 W drag reduction. In terms of on road performance, this equates to approximately 25 sec saved over a 40 km ITT @ 50 km/h. This level of performance would put the new bike at the
cutting edge of contemporary TT bike aerodynamic performance.
HIGHLIGHTS
Stance: Brutal proportions that accentuate its singular purpose of speed
Seamless: An integrated chassis of sculpted airfoils
Halo Platforms: SuperSlice is Vmax. Cannondale’s peak of performance
SuperSlice LAB71 Gen 3 frame - Ultralight Series 0 Carbon construction
Deep aero-section SuperSlice Gen 3 Delta Steerer fork
SystemBar TT integrated full carbon base bar
Vision MonoRiser with JS bend carbon extensions
SuperSlice Gen 3 carbon seatpost with wide range clamp
FEATURES
SystemBar TT
Fully integrated, full carbon base bar with mono-riser and Vision Speed JS-Bend extensions.
Delta Steerer
Our bespoke, wedge-shaped steerer allows for super-clean internal cable. Ruting while keeping the headtube incredibly narrow for super-fast aero gains and efficiency.
Integrated Seatpost
Deep section airfoil post to minimize drag in the crucial accelerated airflow section between a rider’s legs, paired with seat clamp with 45mm of fore-aft range for perfect fit.
Tyre Clearance
Able to run tires with a measured width up to 32mm – with at least 4mm clearance on each side. Allowing for lower rolling resistance and more comfort and confidence on more
varied courses.
DETAILS
Aeroseat stay cutout for brake clearance
Top tube chamfer line fades into the basebar
Tucked rubber bumper maintains the clean frame to basebar integration
Front brake mounts are sliced into the fork leg
Small rubber grommet around the seat post
