The Ultimate Road Bike: Discover the FRD Ultimate Dura-Ace Di2


fr frd ultimate dura-ace di2

If you are inspired and delighted by speed, you need the brand-new FR FRD Ultimate Dura-Ace DI2. The FR is designed to bring you to your goal, whether you’re chasing PRs, segments, or Olympic gold. The new FR is made with performance in mind, making it not only faster but better in every way. Although the FR doesn’t fall short on that front, we are aware that going fast also involves maintaining a higher level of physical and mental stamina than your rivals. Because of this, we completely overhauled the new FR, beginning from zero. Given how quick it is and how much of the cycling industry still uses it as a reference, we used the performance data from the existing FR. But in order to make the bike the quickest and greatest aero road bike we’ve ever designed, we also increased the value of handling and ride quality. Depending on the circumstances, the FR is a staggering 9% faster than the previous FR!
