The new fork design, with greater integration into the frame, saves 2 watts, while the handlebars and full integration of cables and housings not only significantly improve the bike’s aesthetics but also enhance by 2 watts for each cable that is no longer exposed to the air. Increasing the separation distance between the rear wheel and the stays and the front wheel with the fork crown improves airflow in these areas, resulting in greater aerodynamic efficiency. Additionally, other small details were optimised, such as the new evolution of the Disc Cooler technology to interfere as little as possible with the wind. New thru axles were used, which are fully integrated into the fork. The S-Flex technology continues to be part of the bike’s structure to provide extra comfort.
