Built for modern components and drivetrain systems
This frameset is designed to integrate seamlessly with current high-performance components used in road cycling.
Key technical features include:

The threaded bottom bracket is a key advantage, as many bike mechanics prefer it for reduced creaking, easier installation and long-term durability compared with press-fit systems.
