Tire Clearance
We took full advantage of the space modern gravel groupsets like Shimano GRX or Sram Force Wide leave us. Like this we were able to create a frame that can accept tires up to 700c x 50 while being compatible to 2x groupsets as well.
ICH Cockpit
The Eero is using our ICH cockpit. The cables disappear at the stem and are routed internally all the way to the rear brake and derailleurs. Aerodynamic, clean and simple.
Layup Optimization
To achieve a lightweight with good stiffness while still passing all our rigorous strength testing, we had to find new ways in lay-up. We will not give away the details, but a clever mix of high end fibres and fibre orientations sets our frame apart from what is usually done in the bicycle industry. With our lay-up strategy, we use the full potential of each single fibre. To achieve that, we used the combination of draping simulation and FEA software, something rarely seen in the bicycle industry.
Aerodynamic Tube Shapes
All tubes that are aerodynamically relevant were remodeled to profiles that minimize drag, but maintain the stiffness properties of the original tubes. The surfaces facing the wind are following Naca profiles, without any edges creating turbulences. A sharp transition into a flat backside cheats the wind into creating a virtual tear drop profile, shielding the components behind the tube from the wind.
BSA BB
We are very happy to give up a few grams for a silent ride without the noise of a creaking pressfit BB.
Drivetrain Compatibility
The Eero is compatible with mechanical and electronic, 1x and 2x drive trains.
160 mm Flat Mount Disc Brakes
Taking into account the bigger diameter of gravel tires and additional weight of baggage, the flatmount on the Eero is designed for 160 mm rotors, with the option to go to 180 mm with adaptors.
Fender and Rack Compatibility
The Eero has mounts for full fenders and a rear rack. Additionally, you get mounts on the top tube and under the down tube for more storage.
