Using a mix of T800 and T1000 carbon layup, the revised Corsa flies up the climbs, corners as if on rails, and sprints with confidence. Svelte seat tubes and a 27.2mm seat post ensure a smooth ride with 32mm tyre clearance for the modern road rider.
Premium quality lightweight High Modulus Toray T1000 & T800 carbon fibre construction. Specifically considered layup to ensure stiffness and compliance where required in different areas of the frame. Stiff in areas like headtube and BB. Forgiving in areas like seat stays. Smooth wall EPS technology ensures the internal of the frame walling is as smooth as the external. Shaving weight, but most importantly, ensuring a uniform thickness in tubing. Optimising strength and ride quality.
Meticulously designed profiles and shapes ensure excellent ride performance & comfort. Strictly controlled tube thickness and shapes result in a frame that is light, responsive, comfortable, and strong. Transitional ovalized D shaped tube profiles transition into box profiles along the length of the top tube and down tube. This offers increased stiffness or compliance as required in each area of the tube. Slim line D profile seat stays are compliant for comfort. The large section bottom bracket junction maximises stiff power transfer. Round 27.2mm seatpost maximises comfort and allows for customer customisation. Tapered headtube gives composed handling and allows for large, durable headset bearings. Cables are internally routed to ensure durability and clean aesthetic.
Classic road race geometry. The 72.5-73.5 degree head angle offers a fast and responsive trail figure. A short wheelbase and proven reach figures result in an agile ride. 68mm BB drop keeps rider planted whilst improving agility.
