Six hours in the rain, three times a week in the winter, punishing intervals through the spring, all invested to get you work hardened for a long summer of racing and pushing the limit to get a better time in a sportive. You need a bike that’s comfortable enough to train on all winter, light and stiff enough race on all summer, and is strong and durable enough to withstand the knocks, bangs and abuse that are bound to happen when you’re loading in and out of cars, aeroplanes and treating yourself to the occasional crash. Silk Road Pro is that bike.

For 2009 we’ve made several, subtle changes to the tube profiling, leading to a compliant ride that delivers power transfer and all day comfort. We’ve also made slight adjustments to the head tube, making it slightly longer and higher, thereby opening up the benefits of this frame to a larger market without compromising its design integrity.
