CIMA VIOLA T.E.

RACE DEVELOPED / STIFF / ROAD BIKE

The Viola was developed to have equal performance on the climbs as well as the descent. The down tube is pinched laterally at the bottom bracket shell to create lateral stiffness and maximum power transfer at the pedals. In order to ensure that power is transferred to the rear wheel, the chainstays are stiff and sizable so as not to lose any of the riders efforts. In order to create a bike that handles well on long rides, the seat stays are pencil thin allowing for some compliance to the seat post. Couple that pedaling platform with a slightly aero front end, built to accelerate on the decent and you get one of the most efficient and all-around road bikes available on the market today. The Viola was designed and tested in the high Rockies of Colorado to climb and descend with speed and confidence.
