Boardman SLR 8.9 Carbon Disc 2023 - Road Bike
  • £1575.00
  • RRP £1750.00
  • Saving you £10

The SLR 8.9 Disc brings the fantastic ride quality and aerodynamic performance of the SLR 9 Series bikes down to an even more affordable price point. Using the same geometry and frame profiles as the SLR 9 Series, but with our C7 carbon fibre, the SLR 8.9 Disc is a fast and comfortable all-rounder, with Shimano’s excellent 105 hydraulic groupset.At the heart of the bike is a light and efficient C7 carbon frame with tube profiles developed in CFD and the Wind Tunnel to keep aerodynamic drag to the minimum. This means going faster for the same effort, what’s not to like? We haven’t forgotten about comfort too, it’s an important part of enjoying the ride, and a comfortable rider is a faster one. Dropped seat stays and a slim-bladed carbon fork help absorb bumps and road buzz, but a tapered head tube and fork steerer keep handling sharp and precise.Shimano’s R7020 105 Hydraulic groupset delivers smooth and quiet gear shifting, with an excellent range of gears courtesy of the 50-34t compact 105 chainset and 11-30t cassette. This is enough range for super-steep climbs and fast descents alike. This is where the hydraulic disc brakes come into their own, with much greater braking power and control vs a rim braked bike. Tyres are also vitally important for control, and 28mm Vittoria Rubino Pro tyres with Graphene 2.0 compound offer great grip and puncture resistance while rolling quickly too.CONTACT POINTS:Working with Chris Boardman, data from hundreds of bike fits and insight from bike fit experts, we have made simple changes to the contact points of the SLR range. Using advanced pressure mapping and real-world testing we’ve shown that the Boardman SLR saddle will provide long-ride comfort for the majority of people. Bar width and crank length are also reduced vs previous bikes to make sure they are suited to the fit needs of real cyclists, not just based on old traditions. These changes also reduce the rider’s frontal area, which has been wind tunnel tested to reduce drag, meaning less effort required for the same speed.HIGHLIGHTS:Shimano 105 Groupset with Hydraulic Disc Brakes,Shimano 105 compact 50/34t chainset with 11-30t cassette,28mm Vittoria Rubino Pro Graphene 2.0 tyres,Hidden mudguard mounts make the SLR 8.9 Disc practical all year round.

Campagnolo Bora WTO 60 Carbon Clincher Wheelset - Campagnolo - Bright Label
  • £1541.49
  • RRP £1928.99
  • Saving you £20

The Campagnolo Bora WTO 60's are a carbon wheelset, designed and optimised in the wind tunnel for road racing over flat terrain. While the aero 60mm deep rim helps these wheels slice through the air in optimum wind conditions, the structure of the rim itself enhances wind power at yaw angles between 12° and 19°, so even in crosswinds, the athlete is driven further and faster. Despite these aerodynamic advantages, the Campagnolo Bora WTO 60's weigh less than 1550 grams per pair - so they're certainly no slouch on the climbs. Campagnolo has designed this 26.5mm wide, tubeless-ready rim to accept larger tyres which minimise rolling resistance, as well as maximise puncture protection, grip and comfort out on the road. Although carbon wheels typically don't have the best reputation for wet weather braking, by applying the AC3 (All Conditions Carbon Control) technology to the braking track of this wheelset, Campagnolo has improved braking in wet conditions by 40%. These advanced carbon rims, are paired with a set of equally advanced hubs. While the monolithic alloy hub shell is designed for minimal drag, the ceramic USB cup-and-cone bearing system ensures a lasting smooth spin and maximised rider efficiency. These hubs are laced to the rims by hand via 18 steel spokes on the front, and 21 on the rear using a cross-sectional spoke pattern which increases wheel strength, durability and power transfer.

Wider Carbon Fibre Rim for Better Aerodynamics The 303 Firecrest Tubeless Disc brake wheels were designed using real-world direct measurements (vs. primarily wind tunnel or computer simulation). This included Zipp’s RollingRoad™ Testing Protocol. The results were huge. Its rim is slightly more bulbous in design than its predecessor, with a 30mm outside width, a 25mm internal width and a 40mm rim depth. The profile provides low drag and an improved transition between rim and tyre, boosting aero efficiency on the road. Faster Performance These wheels are faster, lighter and more capable over varied terrain, whether the surface is tarmac in all its conditions or no tarmac at all. Deeply rooted in Zipp’s drive to conquer the Spring Classics, the revised 303 Firecrest is redesigned with a purpose-made approach for the demands of modern road bikes. This is the first Zipp wheelset to feature TSE™ Technology (Total System Efficiency). The 303 Firecrest’s precise rim layup results in greater all-around efficiency for greater speed through reduced wind resistance, rolling resistance, a lower weight, increased durability and vibration losses. More Comfortable Ride on Mixed Terrain The wide rim stance also features less tyre deflection for reduced rolling resistance. The combination of the wider tyre, increased tyre volume and lower tyre pressure reduces rider fatigue. This is because the ride is smoother over imperfect surface conditions as the tyre and wheel system absorbs the shaking, not the rider.

Managing this is crucial to stability. Sawtooth: SawTooth is the name given to Zipp NSW's patented variable depth 53/58mm rims. Developed utilising the principles of the emerging science of biomimicry, Zipp engineers began the rigorous aero development process of SawTooth utilising the wind tunnel, CFD, and real-world testing. The result is a rim shape that takes nature's most elegant design solutions and combines engineering precision to deliver a wheel that performs unlike any made before. This patented rim shape achieves something conventional aero wheels cannot; it simultaneously reduces both aerodynamic drag and side force for the ultimate in AeroBalance. Sawtooth accomplishes this with a series of patented fin-shaped Hyperfoil nodes along the inner diameter of the rim that work together with HexFin ABLC dimples for improved airflow. The result is Zipp's highest performing wheel ever released with both aero-drag reduction and reduced side force at all wind yaw angles. This is important because higher wind yaw angles are where bike handling is most affected by the wind. Hyperfoil: Hyperfoil is the name given to the individual nodes on Zipp NSW variable depth Sawtooth rims. Each of these patented structures features Zipp's HexFin ABLC dimples that help to stabilize handling in gusting wind by increasing wind vortex shedding frequency. The higher frequency vortex shedding produced by Sawtooth creates a greater number of smaller, less powerful, yet more predictable vortices leading to greater wheel stability. This added stability translates into greater rider control, thereby saving energy that is typically expended trying to hold a line in gusting wind. The result is a faster, more confident riding experience whether you are laying down power or descending sinuous mountain roads. TSE Technology: Zipp's TSE Technology (Total System Efficiency) was developed by its engineers in the Nest Advanced Development Lab in Indy. This approach to carbon-wheel manufacturing means the wheel's precise rim layup results in greater all-around efficiency for greater speed through reduced: Wind resistance, rolling resistance and gravity (weight + durability) vibration losses.Manufacturer's Part Number: ZPWH8612000Buy Zipp Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
