Kinesis Racelight KT-415 TT SPF FramesetAll Kinesis framesets are designed in the UK, for the dedicated enthusiast who knows exactly what he or she wants and is not prepared to settle for a generic mass-market bike.
The Racelight name stands for no compromise design, high performance and stunning value.
In 2000 we released our first 'Racelight' frame, designed for the club racer as an affordable upgrade to a quality alloy frame with carbon fork.
The cycling press rate the Racelight frames highly too: KiC - Best Buy, 9/10 - Cycling Plus. RC - Gold Award 2003 - Cycling Plus. RC2 - Performance 10, Value 10, Overall 10 -
roadcyclinguk.com 2006 T - 5/5 for performance and value - Cycling Weekly.
We introduced the KT-410, our first TT frameset last year and it was very successful.
For 2008 we have gone back to the drawing board and in conjunction with Kinesis International, we have come up with the totally new KT-415.This frame showcases the latest SPF [Superplastic Formed] tubing for it's front triangle. Using this advanced forming technique allows us to combine complicated aero tube shapes with thin wall, lightweight tubing. This has been hard to achieve by using standard Hydroforming techniques.
The SPF top tube is wide where it meets the head tube for stiffness and tapers down towards the deep aero section seat tube. The Seat tube takes full advantage of the new SPF technology, allowing it to hug the wheel more closely than the KT-410 frame.
The down tube has more of a 'teardrop' section than before and is wide where it meets the BB. Chainstays are now stiff, lightweight, alloy, and the seatstays are carbon.
Also new for '08 is the carbon aero seatpost and colour matched Energy fork [post/fork/headset, included with frame].
[Seatpost – Aero, Mech. - Braze-on, H.set – Integrated, 11/8”, 36/45].
The 53cm frame weighs 1550g
