Based on our popular Sportif geometry but built with shorter chainstays, lower head tube height, tighter clearance, and our all-new vertical stainless steel rear dropouts for performance road training and racing. This is an ideal frame for fast-paced road riders who want the comfort and neutral handling of the classic Italian geometry but who also demand spirited handling and quick power response.
The Sportif Racer falls into what is currently called the "Endurance" category of road bicycles. If you're a fan of the less-traveled roads the Rapha Continental riders take on, this is the bike for you. Designed for use with short reach caliper brake.
Chainstay length measured from center of bottom bracket to center of dropout. Seat tube length measured from center of bottom bracket to center of top tube. Fork height measured from axle to crown race.
Features Cielo vertical rear dropouts, headtube rings, seatstay caps, fork crown and fork dropouts. Frame and fork compatible with short reach road calipers.
