| Features | Raleigh Carbon Evolution/Revolution: At Raleigh, we know every ride has to start somewhere. Every mile is earned and a great frame will get you there. Raleigh frames are designed to help you ride longer, with more control and more speed. Frames that are made to perform for everyone, no matter the size. Frames that will push you to your limit, and keep you coming back for more. This is why we spend countless hours designing, months testing, and thousands of miles on the road. This is why we developed our own Direct Connect process of producing finely tuned carbon frames. This is why we only use industry leading T800 and T700 in our frames. This is why we test our frames against others. Over five years ago we began producing frames with our Direct Connect Carbon process. Steadily and patiently we have refined, tested and evolved the process to create the lightest, stiffest, most durable race frame available. We used oversized BB and chainstays to minimize flex and increase power transfer, and thinned chainstays that are vertically compliant and absorb road vibrations. Each model is built with T700 carbon: a high-tensile strength high modulus, never-twisted fiber that offers the best performance for demanding conditions. Every tube is molded with the highest strength-to-weight ratio in mind, and the tubes are just as smooth on the inside as they are on the outside because of Max Internal Compression process that removes all excess material. Revenio and Capri combine the tapered headtube, attributes of our high end race bikes, and our proven RE2P (Relaxed Ergonomic Effective Position) geometry, that places the rider in the ultimate riding position for optimal endurance and performance. The frames produce a ride that is stiff, lively and compliant, while tipping the scales at a mere 980g. |
