Time RX - Dura Ace Complete


The SAFE+2 fork has a multidiameter carbon steerer (TIME patent) which transitions from 28.6mm in the stem clamping area to 33mm in the zone above the fork crown where the highest forces are concentrated.
Advantages:
• The optimal shape allows the use of less material, for a weight reduction of approx. 55 grams.
• Frontal and lateral rigidity is increased by 15%.
• Resistance to compression is improved by 30%.
• The connection between the steerer and the fork crown is completely safe. Increased durability (500,000+ cycles according to the ISO 4210 standard).
• In conformity with the new European standard EN 14781. 

The QUICKSET concept consists of separating headset adjustment from stem adjustment (TIME patent).
Advantages: 
  • Adjustment of stem position can be made without adjusting the headset.
  • Adjustment of the headset can be made without re-aligning and re-tightening the stem. Eliminating the traditional expander system reduces weight approx. 30 grams. 


The RXRS, NXR and RX are made entirely in France, by hand. 


Resin Transfer Molding - The technology that makes TIME products carbon unique. RTM offers the following benefits:
• Total freedom of molded forms
• Perfect impregnation and cohesion of fibers
• Customizing a mechanical area of constraint
• Control of geometry and thickness of the piece
• Reproducibility of mechanical parts in series


Time designs and manufactures all its frame's fixtures. 




The super light and stiff SL-K crankset from FSA.


The RX's dropouts are constructed from an extremely strong and light alloy and the derailleur hanger is replaceable.




RTM
technology allows for amazing tubing shapes which are highly resistant to torsional drivetrain stresses. 

 
TIME use a BB30 bottom bracket design. 


The Prologo Nago EVO saddle comes standard.





CARBON RACING FIBER MATRIX
High performance carbon fibers. *Time weaves all its carbon tubes in-house. Beat that!




WISHBONE
HM (High Modulus) one-piece carbon structure has been optimized through computer modeling. It improves rigidity and aerodynamics. 

ASYMETRICAL CHAINSTAYS STIFF+
The chainstays of a frame have a major influence on its dynamic properties. Computer studies show that a frame works asymmetrically as the power of the rider is transmitted through the chain to the rear wheel: compression on the right chainstay, while the left chainstay simply flexes. TIME modules are designed with asymmetrical chainstays, with different types and quantities of fibers for the right and left chainstays.
The increase in cross section of the Ulteam chainstays provides better response with greater rigidity, as well as a weight reduction of approx. 15 grams. 


I have ten of these in stock, please contact me to order.
