Exoskeleton Technology
Tubes, joints and transitions incorporate carbon fibre ribs and gussets in strategic locations for optimum power transfer and riding performance. Developed initially for the DIABLO, the Exoskeleton design has been further refined through finite element analysis and applied in specific locations on the new BURAsl.
C6.9 Carbon Fibre
With over 25 years of experience of utilising carbon fibre in high performance products. NEILPRYDE has developed specific combinations of medium and high modulus uni-directional carbon fibres for our cutting edge race bikes. Specific 3K carbon is applied to high stress areas such as the bottom bracket and head tube.
OTP Stiffness
Optimised tube profiles developed using finite element analysis enable frame stiffness to be maximised in critical areas to ensure efficient power transfer.
