Description:
|
First introduced in 2003, the Race is a modified and improved version of Merckx's popular Fuga frameset. The main triangle is still made from a specially-drawn, extra-light, butted aluminum tubing from Easton named "Race 7000" -- a lighter version of the Easton Ultralight 7005 used in the Fuga in 2002. It comes with a slimmer, stiffer carbon seatstay than the Fuga. It weighs only a touch above 3lbs. The Race gives you the benefits of oversized aluminum tubing with superior stiffness in comparison to countless other aluminum offerings. The carbon seatstay absorbs a good measure of road shock to help keep fatigue at bay during long rides, and you get legendary Merckx frame geometry.
The race is available in Blue/Black and Red/Black. We also have the 2003 Silver/Black version of the Race on sale in our "Specials" section. It comes with an Eddy Merckx carbon fiber fork. It is available in 2cm increments between 48cm-62cm and five sloping sizes. It requires a 31.6mm seatpost and a 1-1/8" threadless Hiddenset.
