:: Carbon Concepts :: 2011 Carbon Concepts Secede 5700 105 Full Carbon Road Bicycle

Secede: To break away from an organization or group.

Plan your next get-away with the new 2011 Carbon Concepts Secede. A no sacrifice full carbon race inspired bike with everything you'll need to ride on carbon. Enjoy the comfort, the lightweight feel, superior vertical compliance, stiff bottom bracket, and true "ride all day" geometry of the new Carbon Concepts Secede Bicycle line.

At the heart of this frame is the new Toray carbon monocoque frame. Wrapped in 3k carbon and finished with Wet Gloss Endura Clear Coat provides excellent durability and chip protection. Our reinforced headtube and bottom bracket sections also improve overall stiffness while our new geometries offer all day riding comfort. The Secedes front carbon fork includes a carbon fiber steerer tube for decreased weight and improved stiffness when climbing and accelerating. Included with the fork is another dose of 3k carbon to finish it off and our Wet Gloss Endura Clear Coat finish.

Adding true value to this complete bike is the new Shimano 105 5700 and Ritchey black component build group. Benefiting from trickle down technology, the new Shimano 105 group will provide you with precision shifting that has been unheard of in this price bracket. We also provide you with a few options to upgrade as your budget allows!
