Cinelli Saetta Frameset 2012

Construction methods studied for unparalleled reliability and efficiency in this weight division. The shape of the frame's joints, key points of structural stress, have been studied to minimize the level of the sigma specific stress in the transition point significantly increasing the reliability and fatigue resistance of the frame.

The Top tube has been aggressively thinned out into a skeletal structure with material arranged in the paths of maximum stresses. The constant arc from the top tube through to the seatstays has been designed in order to exercise the inherent laminate qualities of the material under vertical deformation for progressive control of the flexion of stays and top tube creating a noticeably smoother and more consistent ride quality.

Material savings from top tube and seatstays are redistributed to the bottom bracket area and "swollen" chainstays which has been considerably bulked up, producing an extremely high level of stiffness relative to weight, while maintaining strong and certain progressive handling.

Same successful geometries of the Willin' with the exception of the top tube which has been shortened slightly. All the same high-end technology of the Saetta Sprint, Saetta is constructed from the same mould with slightly different materials.

Saetta is made from 30HM carbon fibres, and utilises carbon fork with aluminium steerer for a more affordable package with minimal difference in weight and performance.
