Rider-First
Engineered
Our Rider-First Engineered™ frames are directly
inspired by our relationship with McLaren,
meaning that they focus heavily on data-driven

problem, you need sound data, and this can only
be derived from hundreds of hours of testing. Of
course, the question begs to be asked: What have
we been testing for?
Over the years, our engineers found that
riders on smaller frames were experiencing
ride characteristics that were inverse to that
of their larger counterparts—and vice-versa.

while the opposite can be true for large
frames.
Correcting
this required sophisticated
instruments to quantify the forces being applied
to the frame.
In
real-world testing, these
measured the reactionary forces through the
fork, stem, saddle—every conceivable input and
output. With an immense supply of data in tow,
our engineers were able to create the remedy.
“It’s a different way of developing a
bike platform. It’s making sure that this
bike performs at a level that we’d expect
across the entire size range.”
- Chris D’Aluisio,
Specialized Principle Engineer
To equalize performance, they found that
each size’s performance targets required direct

each tube size & carbon layup is purposefully
selected with the collected data in mind. The
result? The optimal balance of rigidity, weight,
and responsiveness across every frame size.
