Wilier Cento 10 Air SRAM Red ETAP Road Bike 2018 Review

• Wilier Cento10 Air SRAM Red ETAP Road BikeThe Wilier Cento10 Air SRAM Red ETAP Road Bike is a unique raching machine. With all of Wilier’s heritage thrown behind it, the Cento10 Air frame has everything the racing cyclist will need for a successful season. The inclusion of a SRAM Red eTap 11-speed drivetrain and Mavic Cosmic Pro Exalith wheelset makes the bike the complete lightweight and dialled-in race-winning machine Light, Stiff, and Aerodynamic Seeking the best possible performance, the Cento10 Air Road Bike features a Carbon 60TON frame and fork as well as Wilier’s bespoke Alabarda aero bar. This integrated bar weighs just 390 grams and perfectly matches the Cento10 Air frame. This boosts aerodynamicåÊperformance to a higher level as the wind disappears as the AlabardaåÊunleashes total integration without compromise Features: Frame:åÊCarbon Monocoque Fibre 60TON Fork:åÊCarbon Monocoque Fibre 60TON Chainset:åÊSRAM Red eTap, 11-speed, 50/34T BB Shell: SRAM Red Press Fit Brake/Shift Levers: SRAM Red eTap Front Derailleur:åÊSRAM Red eTap , 11-speed Rear Derailleur: SRAM Red eTap , 11-speed Cassette: SRAM Red eTap, 11-speed, 11-28T Chain: SRAM Red, 11-speed Wheelset: Mavic Cosmic Pro Exalith Tyres: Mavic Yksion Pro Brakes: TRP – T930 Direct Mount Handlebar:åÊAlabarda integrated (390g å± 5%) Headset:åÊFSA custom bearings Saddle:åÊAstute Star Lab Seatpost:åÊRitchey Cento10 Air customWeight: 7.1kg å± 5% Technologies: Carbon 60TON: To build a great monocoque carbon frame, Wilier looked for the perfect balance of stiffness, comfort and responsiveness at the lightest possible weight. Carbon fibre is an ideal material for bicycle frames because of its qualities of elasticity, capacity to withstand stresses, and its strength-to-weight ratio. The higher the modulus, the stiffer the composite. On the other end of the spectrum, the lower the modulus, the more elastic it will be. In the construction of this bike they implemented MR60H for stiffness in the critical stress areas where lateral stiffness equates to greater efficiency. Then used T800H and T700SC, with more elastic characteristics, to ensure comfort and sure-footed handling. Each was used as minimally as possible once our demanding strength and durability standards were met, ensuring the lightest weight frame possible. Alabarda: The brand new monocoque integrated aero bar. This handlebar is a Wilier design, born to match prefectly the newåÊCento10 Air. The bar is designed following NACA algorithm, as the new Cento10 Air frame. The aero performance is at a very high level, every detail has been designed to make the wind disappear. Total Integration: Using their new integrated aero bar Alabarda, you are able to run shifter cables inside the frame. With Alabarda the only cables you will see are the brake cables. Aerodynamic Profile: There are 2 ways to design an aero profile: use a pencil on a white board or use NACA profiles. NACA means National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics. It was born in the ‰Û÷30s and exploded in the ‰Û÷60s for a mathematical approach to the complex world of aerodynamics. The shapes of Wilier’s tubing were born following the NACA ‰ÛÏalgorithm‰Û, and then adapted at different uses needed on a bike. By considering aerodynamics, weight, and UCI rules limitations, Wilier found the best compromise. The result is the newåÊCento10 AiråÊshape. The downtube, for example, is a NACA profile 0028, which is then cut following the Kamm Tail Theory: a high aero performance, light weight, increase torsional stiffness, and conforms with UCI rules. Impact Front: Another important point about aerodynamics is in the frontal area‰Ûªs footprint. As you can see, the front fork is much wider than usual, and the legs of the fork are farther from the wheel. This design helps to reduce turbulence of the air flowing through the bike, with less pressure and less drag åÊWhen compared with the Cento1 Air,åÊthe Cento10 AiråÊhas 2.86% more frontal area, but has an 8% improved aerodynamics efficiency. Direct Mount Brakes: The wider fork and rear stays allows the use of direct mount brakes. This type of brake offers more power and better modulation when braking, and of course, more clearance for tyres up to 28mm. This kind of brake matches better with the design and the function of the frame. Balanced Design: Like other recent Wilier frames, also Cento10 Air utilises a balanced design. This solution brings small differences on tube sizing. Every tube of every frame size, from XS to XXL – has different diameters. Balanced design makes any frame perfect and balanced compared to its size. BB Shell:åÊCento10 Air uses a standard 86 5x41mm Press Fit BB shell. Asymmetric Rear Stays: The drive-side chainstay has been designed to better facilitate the forces applied to it by the actuation of the drivetrain, providing enhanced stability and ultra-efficient power transfer. Dropout: A new two-hole dropout; the dropout follows the latest Wilier projects with 2-in-1 technology. This dropout works for both drivetrain systems, electronic and mechanic Easy AssemblyWhen you order a bike, one of our trained mechanics will carefully prepare and pack your bike for shipping. Upon delivery, the assembly is simple and all necessary tools are conveniently included in the box Depending on the delivery service and destination, bikes will either be delivered in a large or a small box. Below is a guide as to how your bike will arrive:All bikes for delivery within the UK and Republic of Ireland will be delivered in a large box, except for kids‰Ûª bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes. All bikes for delivery within the EU on a standard service will be delivered in a large box. If an express delivery option is chosen, your bike will be packed into a small box. Again, the exception is kids‰Ûª bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes. All bikes for worldwide delivery outside the EU will be delivered in small boxes This video demonstrates assembly from a SMALL BOX This video demonstrates assembly from a LARGE BOX Buy Wilier Bikes from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
