A frame with unique features and a host of innovative aspects, providing the perfect solution to the needs of triathletes around the world. A product developed on the basis of four fundamental pillars: aerodynamics, braking efficiency, wide range of positions, and ease of transportation. The ultimate synthesis of these key elements, Wilier Turbine is the new triathlon and time trial frame that embodies all of Wilier Triestina's expertise in the quest for maximum speed. Wilier Turbine transforms your power into speed, offering the highest possible levels of performance.
Wilier Turbine was designed using NACA aerodynamic profiles and boasts a truncated rear tail, reducing weight and increasing torsional stiffness. The hydraulic disc brake system not only provides superb braking safety in all weather conditions, it also increases the aerodynamic efficiency of the frame. It might seem counter-intuitive, but moving away from rim caliper brakes allowed us to design a fork and rear triangle with wider clearance around the wheels. This leads to a dramatic reduction in air turbulence around the wheels, which improves aerodynamics. Our aerodynamic studies also focused on the handlebar stem/curve, which we designed ourselves. The profile of the Wilier Turbine stem is perfectly integrated with the fork, transforming it into a single, streamlined component with no protrusions or cavities. The resulting aerodynamic line is of the highest possible level.
The number of ergonomic positions that can be achieved with the Wilier Turbine frame are almost limitless. With three frame sizes available, along with three types of seat post and a revolutionary new handlebar design, we can meet the needs of both worlds: time trial and triathlon, two sports which call for very different riding positions.
We know that travelling with a triathlon bike can be complicated. The Wilier Turbine boasts special monocoque carbon handlebar which can be collapsed in less than a minute without removing any cables and - above all - without losing the original set-up: an essential feature which facilitates transportation of the entire bike, as well as making it easier to store at home or in the garage.
