| Features | A completely new and lighter frame: Designed for road bicycle racing, the new G6 maximises its aerodynamic qualities. From the first turn of the pedals, the G6 displays an enormous power and shows how all the small details are important at top-level competition. The new G6 range has improved in lightness and rigidity because it is made in one carbon piece, as so is the front derailleur and cable guide slots. Core Removal Technology: The G6 is a one-piece frame manufactured entirely with carbon fibres. Just like in the Ultralight frame, it has been manufactured using core removal technology, which consists in a high-pressure system that avoids creating any bubbles or imperfections within the carbon. This exclusive system brings out the best quality of the compact material and eliminates any inconsistent pressure within the mould. 1.5” Integrated carbon conical headset: The 1.5" carbon conical headset, fully integrated into the G6 frame, produces exceptional torsion stiffness ratios and provides great handling. The diagonal section of the new G6's head tube has been reduced in over 11% for more efficiency and lower wind resistance. The most aerodynamic fork: The fork is manufactured in one carbon piece, and it includes a base for the 1.5" conical bearing in its design. This innovative fork gives shape to one of the lightest and most resistant frames once integrated into the aero racing frame of the G6. It is, without a doubt, the most aerodynamic fork that BH has ever manufactured. Oversized bottom bracket: The G6's bottom bracket has been oversized to incorporate the BB386EVO system, which ensures greater torsion stiffness and cycling efficiency. Thanks to its 86.5 mm base the surface, rigidity and resistance has been increased. This innovation has enabled BH to increase the size of the down tubes up to a diameter of 80 mm, thus reducing the thickness of the walls and increasing the torsion stiffness in the crankset and frame rear areas. Cable guides within the frame: The original cable guiding system designed by BH for the G6 permits the integration of mechanical or electronic systems, guaranteeing maximum protection. Sloping geometry: Just like in the preceding G5 range, the G6 has sloping geometry. The head tube has been slightly lifted, the rear triangle has been shortened and the seat's angle has been slightly modified to place the centre of gravity in a lower position than usual with the aim of achieving optimum handling and immediate acceleration. |
