FeaturesThe Aurora Elite frame features Size Specific Tubing (SST): smaller frames are constructed with smaller diameter tubing to retain resiliency and ride quality, while larger frames are constructed using larger diameter tubing to retain stiffness for larger riders. Reynolds 631 air-hardened chromoly actually gains strength in the weld zone area, instead of losing it like all other welded material, allowing Reynolds to draw this tubing thinner, for a lighter, stiffer frame with outstanding "feel". Heat-treated chromoly rear stays and investment cast dropouts increase torsional stiffness by 30%. Our lugged, full chromoly unicrown touring fork (with lightweight butted blades) offers classic looks and steel's legendary feel & durability with a full compliment of braze-ons for low riders, fenders and racks. Mavic's durable A119 double-walled rims laced with strong DT Champion stainless spokes in a 36 hole 3-cross pattern to always-dependable Shimano R505 Center Lock disc road hubs assure smooth rolling under load day after day. Shimano's 105 30-speed group delivers light, precise shifting throughout the entire gear range while Micro Shift bar end shifters will provide easy on the road maintenance and cable replacement. Shimano's FC-R563 triple 50/39/30T with a 12-30T offers the full range needed for big loads and big hills for long days in the saddle. Avid's BB7 disc brakes offer powerful stopping with light action at the lever. Their proprietary TRI-ALIGN Caliper Positioning System aligns pads with rotors easily & perfectly all the time, every time. Dual knob pad adjustment that offers easy on the fly adjustments. Shimano Center Lock mounted 160mm rotors are designed for a perfect fit while keep dirt and grime from mucking up your ride Vittoria's Randonneur Pro 32mm tires offer more air volume to support the additional weight of loaded touring while delivering optimal road-holding capability & ride quality. These tires also feature a "double-shield" protective barrier in the tire casing that helps to prevent puncture flats. Our Jamis Touring saddle with ergonomic design and pressure relief cut-out will keep you confortable all day. The synthetic, distressed-leather like cover with just enough nap to provide a grip on top, will offer a slick side surface to pedal against smoothly. NVO Components ATS adjustable-height stem system is much lighter than angle adjustable stems and adjusts handlebar height more easily & quickly too. Our disc brake compatible rear carrier with strap features tubular hollow alloy tubing for strength, stiffness and reduced weight. Rear carrier is rated to carry 25kgs/55lbs. Full coverage alloy fenders with mud flaps are light & stylish and protect both rider and bike from rain water sloughing off spinning wheels.
