An award winning compact frame with renowned strength, stiffness and comfort – unbeatable value.
The Racelight RC has been refined and developed over 3 years and continues to gain top reviews from magazines, websites and riders; roadcyclinguk.com – “Good: Bags of race ready value, Bad: Not much. Performance 5/5, Value 5/5, Overall 5/5.”
For 2006, we have left the geometry of the 48, 51 and 55cm sizes alone, but the 45 has undergone some changes. The smallest frame has a shortened front centre making it more suitable for smaller riders and for the first time it has ‘carbonstrutt’ carbon seat stays specially developed for this frame.
The RC’s amazing ride quality is due to the use of advanced Kinesium tubing, high modulus, smooth jointed, tuned carbon wishbone seatstays [on 48, 51 and 55cm sizes, 45cm size has twin carbonstrutt stays] and UK designed, race ready geometry.
Our hand built frames are joined using advanced ‘UltraSmoothWeldProfile’ technology, giving strong, stress free welds and a super clean appearance. The top tube and seat tube are ‘Power Bulged’ giving maximum area at the head tube and BB for ultimate stiffness and response. The down tube has an Aero top section and is ovalised at the BB, further enhancing power transfer.
The decals are all new for 2006 and there is a new ‘Gloss Battleship Grey’ colour.
