TIME SCYLON Nude Road Frameset
The TIME SCYLON Nude Road Frameset represents the pinnacle of modern road bike design, delivering elite‑level aerodynamics, precision handling, and unmistakable ride quality. Designed for serious road cyclists, racers, and custom bike builders, the SCYLON is a flagship frameset sought after by riders working with Brisbane bike shops and premium bicycle service and fitting specialists across Queensland.
Engineered without compromise, the SCYLON blends cutting‑edge carbon construction with refined geometry, full cable integration, and modern tyre clearance — all while preserving TIME’s legendary handling feel and durability. This is a true no‑nonsense race frameset built for pure speed.
Advanced Carbon Engineering for Modern Road Cycling
The latest SCYLON has been re‑engineered from the ground up using TIME’s evolved Braided Carbon Structure (BCS) technology. After extensive material development and manufacturing refinement, TIME achieved a weight reduction of more than 100 grams per frame size, while maintaining the stiffness, strength, and ride quality riders expect.
This makes the SCYLON an ideal foundation for lightweight, high‑performance road bike builds prepared by expert mechanics and professional bike fitters in Brisbane.
Aerodynamics Optimised for Pure Speed
Using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis and refined tube shaping, the SCYLON delivers a measured 12 percent improvement in aerodynamic efficiency compared to previous versions. Drag reduction was achieved without increasing tube mass or compromising handling, making the frameset equally effective for climbing, sprinting, and long road races.
Refined airfoil shaping of the down tube and seat tube reduces frontal drag while preserving lateral stiffness and responsiveness.
Redesigned Aero Fork with Consistent Handling
TIME’s new SCYLON fork continues a 30‑year legacy of benchmark fork design. The fully redesigned aero fork delivers a 4 percent drag reduction while retaining stiffness and steering precision. It also supports up to 32c tyres, increasing comfort, grip, and versatility for modern road riding.
For the first time in a TIME frameset, size‑specific fork offsets are employed to ensure consistent handling characteristics across all frame sizes.
Powerbox Chainstay System for Elite Power Transfer
At the heart of the SCYLON is the iconic Powerbox chainstay system, re‑engineered using ultra‑high modulus carbon fibres. This one‑piece structure now weighs 20 percent less, increases tyre clearance to 32c, and preserves the exceptional power transfer and torsional rigidity that define the SCYLON ride feel.
Pedalling stiffness remains unchanged, while torsional stiffness has been improved by 9 percent, delivering confident handling under high load and aggressive riding.
Seamless Integration and Modern Compatibility
The SCYLON features full internal cable routing, compatible with multiple electronic and mechanical drivetrain brands. Clean integration enhances aerodynamics, protects cables, and supports modern cockpit systems commonly used in premium road bike builds.
With 32c tyre clearance, the SCYLON accommodates wider tyres for improved comfort, rolling efficiency, and real‑world road performance — ideal for Queensland road conditions.
Heritage Craftsmanship Meets Cutting‑Edge Design
Hand‑crafted using TIME’s proprietary carbon weaving techniques, the SCYLON blends heritage manufacturing precision with modern engineering. The redesigned geometry and refined ergonomics make it TIME’s most advanced road frameset to date, offering sharp handling without sacrificing long‑distance comfort.
This frameset is purpose‑built for riders seeking a high‑end custom road bike built and supported by experienced Brisbane bicycle service centres.
