Limited Edition Ferrari bike

Colnago and Ferrari have brought their experience and technology together to create this Limited Edition bicycle, representing the highest synthesis of ‘Made in Italy’.

This bicycle is a technological icon with innovations from F1, as you’d expect. The bike sports a frame made of carbon fibre and weighs a mere 6 kg. With an opaque livery and minimalist graphics this bike is extremely elegant, without neglecting its sporty soul.

The main frame is based on 3PRS technology, a system to strengthen frames internally. A technology originated in aeronautics, improving the frame’s rigidity and reducing the weight. A further innovation is the employment of the Dura Ace Di2 electronic group, optimising the gears and keeping the bicycle chain tight and straightened, thus eliminating possible mistakes. The wheels are Racing Speed XLR’s with carbon fibre hub.

Once the bicycle has been ordered, the client will receive a form from the customer care department for the racing cycle’s personalisation. The client has to indicate his/her standover, the height and the shoe size for a perfect customisation. This collaboration seems to make more sense than most Ferrari-endorsed products, though at €12,500.00 it is certainly a premium item.
