Lightweight Carbon Performance Platform

The Evolve CIMA Rewind is designed as a fast and responsive carbon road platform for riders who want a modern custom-build frameset with low weight, efficient power transfer and refined handling.

Aero-Optimised Frame Design

The CIMA platform uses modern aerodynamic tube shaping to improve efficiency at speed while still maintaining the lively ride feel expected from a lightweight performance road frame.

Fully Internal Cable Routing

Internal cable routing gives the frame a clean, high-end appearance and reduces exposed cables around the cockpit. This is ideal for Shimano Di2, SRAM AXS or Campagnolo WRL builds.

Electronic Groupset Focus

The frame is designed around modern electronic drivetrains, helping reduce mechanical cable maintenance while delivering crisp, precise shifting and a very clean cockpit layout.

Disc Brake Control

Flat mount disc brake compatibility provides consistent stopping power for steep descents, wet-weather riding, criteriums, fast bunch rides and long-distance road cycling.

Multiple Seatpost Options

The available seatpost length and offset options allow riders and bike fitters to fine-tune saddle position, setback and pedalling biomechanics.

Custom Build Flexibility

The frameset format allows riders to select their ideal wheels, drivetrain, cockpit, tyres and finishing kit, making it a strong option for a personalised high-performance road bike build.

Best Suited For

Road racers
Competitive club cyclists
Fast bunch ride cyclists
Climbing-focused riders
Gran Fondo riders
Endurance road cyclists
Riders upgrading from alloy or entry-level carbon frames
Cyclists building a Shimano Di2 or SRAM AXS custom road bike

Product Care

Clean with mild bike-safe cleaner and water.
Avoid high-pressure washing around the headset, bottom bracket and bearings.
Use a calibrated torque wrench on all frame, cockpit, seatpost and bottle cage bolts.
Apply carbon assembly paste where recommended.
Inspect the frame regularly for cracks, impact marks or paint damage.
Check headset preload and bottom bracket condition during regular servicing.
Inspect the fork and steerer after any crash or major impact.
Ensure internal hoses and electronic wires are routed by an experienced mechanic.
Keep Shimano Di2, SRAM AXS or Campagnolo firmware updated where applicable.
Have the frame inspected after travel, transport damage or racing incidents.

Warranty Information

Warranty coverage is subject to Evolve manufacturer terms and conditions.
Warranty generally applies to defects in materials and workmanship.
Crash damage, incorrect assembly, over-torquing, misuse, modification and normal wear are typically not covered.
Professional assembly is recommended to protect warranty eligibility and ensure safe long-term performance.
Regular servicing is recommended for riders using the bike for racing, high-mileage training or frequent climbing and descending.

Retailer and industry commentary around the CIMA platform has also been positive, especially regarding its clean internal routing, electronic drivetrain focus, custom-build potential, distinctive finishes and value compared with major premium race framesets.

Rider Feedback & Community Sentiment

As the CIMA Special Edition Rewind is part of a newer frame platform, long-term rider feedback is still developing. Early discussion from road cyclists and custom bike builders has been positive, especially around:

Lightweight race-oriented frame concept
Distinctive Special Edition Rewind finish
Clean fully integrated appearance
Electronic drivetrain compatibility
Premium custom build potential
Strong value compared with mainstream flagship frames
Modern aero-road styling
Seatpost options for fit flexibility

Many riders are drawn to the CIMA because it offers a unique high-end build option that stands apart from the common premium road bikes seen in bunch rides.
