The benchmark in the aero bike segment
The natural evolution of our high-end aerodynamic bike used byprofessionals.
Filante SLR is an extremely lightweight aerodynamic bicycle with asignificantly improved stiffness-to-weight ratio. The bike is used by theathletes of the Groupama - FDJ Cycling Team.
Aerodynamic
Filante SLR was designed to maximise aerodynamic performance in realenvironmental conditions. The design was based on data recorded in the windtunnel (where the wind is very clean for homogeneous empirical results) whilealso taking the real world into account. In this way, we not only evaluatetypical wind tunnel data (yaw angles from -20° to + 20°), but also considerenvironmental turbulence that impacts the bike for many different reasons.
That’s why we redesigned the profiles, starting with the standard NACAairfoils/ KAMM tail that no longer have sharp edges on the back. The softenedangles improve performance even when the airflow is disturbed.
The inside of the front fork has been widened by 7 mm, making it 13.6% widerthan the Cento10PRO. In doing so, we moved the fork blades away from the wheel,reducing turbulence and improving aerodynamics.
240 Fittings available
Since the fork steerer tube is no longer bevelled, we can install upto 35 mm of spacers under the handlebar. By combining frame sizes, handlebarsizes, and spacers, we can achieve 240 different fittings, with no overlapbetween combinations. This doubles with the two available seat posts, with a 15mm or 0 mm setback.
Lightweight and Responsive
The new aerodynamically optimised profiles helped us eliminate extraweight in the frame’s construction. The shape has no sharp edges and, thereforerequires less material and less resin in the corners. This improves thehomogeneity of the inside, reducing the frame’s weight to a mere 870 grams. Theassembled bike with top-of-the-range specifications weighs 6.8 kg.
Thanks to the different types of carbon we used in combination with theLiquid-Crystal Polymer, the unique fibre positioning and the constructiontechnology, we have reached an absolute level of lightness and stiffness.
The lower overall weight compared to the exceptional stiffness increases STW by12.5%. This improvement is clearly felt with the steering precision and thefeeling of safety at high speeds.
Handlebar and integrated cables
In addition to being lightweight, (350 grams for the 101x42 size)the integrated carbon monocoque Filante Bar handlebar houses the brake andderailleur cables, directing them toward the inside of the frame. Its design isvery simple, with sinuous and rounded lines for maximum grip ergonomics.
Easy-fit spacer
The spacers between the frame headset and the handlebar are made ofa high-stiffness composite material, with a special cavity for the cables. Theyare composed of two parts for quick assembly and disassembly withoutinterfering with the cables running from the handlebar to the frame.
Balanced Design
Six sizes, one feeling. The sections of the tubes of various sizeswere designed to maintain consistent rigidity, handling quality and comfort onevery frame size.
Miche Light RD Thru Axles
These axles, made of anodized AL 7075-T6, embody the perfect blendof strength and lightness. Specifically engineered for Wilier Triestina'sVerticale SLR, Filante SLR, and 0 SLR road models, they deliver exceptionalreliability and optimal performance.
Weighing just 64 grams per pair, these axles provide both speed and ease ofuse, making them the ideal choice for those striving for the best in anysituation.
Sram Red AXS X Filante SLR
Every part of RED has been refined to create aneffortless ride. Light brake feel and comfortable ergonomics, smooth frontshifting, fully wireless connectivity, and expanded gearing choices fit everyrider and their needs.
RED is packed with features, such as accurate and reliable power measurement,new shift points, and more brake adjustability, while still shaving grams offevery component to bring you the lightest electronic groupset ever.
