The Technique brings Verenti road performance foundations into a new lower price point. The design remit was clear, build a fantastic value road bike that will lead our customers into a superb cycling experience. The bike is aimed at the first time road bike rider who wants a sporty ride, reliable performance and unbeatable value. The Technique is supported at the front end with Full Carbon forks with a tapered steerer. The bladed legs absorb the vibration off the road giving that little more comfort and the carbon steerer gives you that little extra strength at the front end but still keeping the weight down.
The Shimano Tiagra groupset gets a revamp for 2016 in looks, design and technology. Following on from it's older brothers, it offers clean looks, great shifting and excellent performance. The chainset features the 4-arm spider bringing it inline with 105, Ultegra and Dura Ace. Using a 50/34 compact gearing, you can tackle even the steepest climbs with confidence. 10 speed Tiagra STi levers offer improved ergonomics, smoother shifter and lever movement, under-tape cable routing and a more comfortable brake hood. Shifting is precise and consistent, right the way through the 10 speed drivetrain. Dual pivot brake calipers provide excellent braking power, with angle adjustable pads to ensure perfect pad alignment. A quick release lever aids installation and removal of wheels, for transportation or puncture repairs.
Keeping the Technique rolling is a set of Shimano RS010 wheelset, with their double walled alloy rims and forged alloy serviceable hubs these should never slow you down. To give you that little extra traction these wheels are then wrapped in a pair of Continental Ultra Sport tyres in a 28mm width.
Finishing the Technique off is a collection of parts from Cosine. Using a Alloy 75mm reach bar,a 3D forged stem, Single bolt alloy 27.2mm seatpost and a Cosine road specific saddle. A great, light-weight finishing kit to top the Technique off.
