The modular monocoque carbon frame features airfoil-shaped tubes, a rear-wheel cutout in the seat tube and internal cable routing to give you an aero advantage for more speed. Up front, Kestrel's carbon fork smooths the road and lets you carve the corners with ease while dropped onto the aero bars or sprinting on the wings. Shimano's reliable 105 components provide super smooth shifting and solid braking, while the Oval wheels spin quick and true. And, you get a svelte carbon seatpost and a whole suite of Oval's exceptional components.MATERIAL- Carbon is the backbone of every Kestrel-it has been since 1986. Kestrel uses two grades of carbon: 700K & 800K. The 700K is all muscle. Less resistant to bending, it's utilized in high-stress areas to reduce flex. And the 800K adds finesse. The lighter of the two, it's utilized in lower stress areas to achieve the lightest possible overall frame weight. Each model employs a unique blend of these two fibers to create a powerful yet light weight bike.
