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.
Utilizing T800-grade high modulus carbon with high tensile strength, never-twisted fiber we reduced the amount of material needed in key areas, combined with a Max Internal Compression process. The result is an ultra-thin, stiff, and internally smooth tube surface. Using these combined techniques, we were able to substantially reduce the weight, resulting in a 880g frame that sacrifices nothing & maximizes everything.
