The TOTAL ECLIPSE FRAME offers a unique combination of
everything you ever wanted in a bicycle frame. It is as
light and stiff as any high-end frame. In addition, it offers
perfect aerodynamics and superior rider comfort, making
it the most efficient bike ever built.
The superior characteristics
of carbon fiber
These goals were reached by way of new design principles only
possible through the use of carbon fiber. Fiber reinforced materials enable
the designer to put exactly the required amount of material wherever needed
to achieve perfection: perfect drivetrain efficiency, direct response to
steering input and just the right amount of suspension at the saddle.
Comfort on long rides
Our unique CARBON SUSPENSION isolates the rider from road shock,
thus relieving your back and allowing you to ride farther. The stiff dampening
makes the suspension undetectable on good surfaces, giving you none of
the pogo effect known from regular beam bikes or suspended mountain bikes.
The concept of suspending the saddle has been proven effective during the
toughest race of the world: 80% of the participants in the Race Across
America use this design.

650C or 700C wheels
Our frames are available both in traditional 700C (28”) wheel size
as well as in the smaller 650C (26”) size popular among triathletes
and time trialists. The 650C frame offers a steeper seat angle, making
it perfect for the low, aerodynamic position required for time trialing.
The steering geometry is optimized for longer distances. |

Maximum
density fibers
The extreme demands of aerospace engineering require the
use of the highest quality fibers. For the first time, our frames use
these fibers resulting in better bike frames.» |
|
|
Design using modern methods
The exact direction and amount of fibers in every single location
within the frame is calculated through the use of specific computer software
from our aerospace department. The result is optimal stiffness at a low
weight combined with our unique CARBON SUSPENSION. » |

Hand made in
Germany
Each frame is hand made individually in Germany. This ensures
the excellent quality of every single frame. » |
 |
Autoclave baking
This expensive production procedure not usually seen in the
bike business results in stronger parts. » |
CARBON SUSPENSION for
better results
The beam construction of the TOTAL ECLIPSE FRAME reduces road
shock without robbing efficiency. » |
Still fighting to make the
cut for IRONMAN qualification?
If for you cycling is about racing against the clock as fast
as possible, the TOTAL ECLIPSE is the right bike for you. Aerodynamic for
fast courses like Roth (Germany), super light for the climbs of Lanzarote,
and comfortable for faster running splits. Available in both 650C and 700C. |
