Forme Flash Carbon Road Bike - Athena Eps - Black/Green

The forme flash frame is hand built by one of the world’s finest carbon manufacturers to our highest standards. At just 850 grams (size 54cm) the flash is engineered to offer the highest level of performance and gives every appearance of stiffness and effective power transfer.

Every single tube shape matters.
Tube shape, the angle at which the carbon fibres are orientated, positioning of polymers, quality of laminate and grade of filament (e.g. 3k,12k etc) all affect the performance and weight of any frame. The number of different shape combinations and styles are infinite therefore we have taken care to optimize all contributing factors when designing the flash to meet the demands of its rider. Force loads are examined and strength sections are reinforced in the relevant areas in proportion to each of our frame sizes. Furthermore our flash frames use highest performance t-800 raw carbon fibre material as featured on many protour level framesets.

Cable management:
Designed to hide away from the frequent wet weather experienced during a huge amount of our product testing our internal cable management system offers improved assembly and maintenance and protects your cables.

Bb86:
This is one of the widest bottom brackets available allowing us to make the bike lighter, stiffer and more responsive.

Tapered steerer:
Featuring an 1-1/8" to 1.5" tapered carbon steerer. This allows for more precise steering when descending as well as improved power transfer when jumping out of corners and launching powerful attacks.

Narrow seat stays:
Using narrow seat stays allows us to offer greater vertical defection promoting comfort. To ensure the stays are as laterally stiff as possible without sacrificing comfort we use a special reinforcing laminate.

Integrated drop out:
The flash uses a carbon fibre dropout with a replaceable alloy hanger. Carbon chain stays with integrated carbon dropout shave additional grams from the complete bike.

Carbon integrated handlebars:
Our 4za cirrus pro handlebars are world champion tested and approved and feature a carbon/kevlar monocoque construction for top strength to weight ratio as well as a super aerodynamic profile.
