Wilier Bicycles (Le Roi Model - Black/Yellow) Britton's Bicycle Shops

Steadfast and elegant, it is the original ultra light Wilier Triestina monocoque. The 990 gram frame, unmistakable in its classical geometry, is the result of a balanced mix of carbon fibers with specific mechanical properties of resistance and elasticity.  Now in its fourth season in the Wilier line, it remains the favorite of the Lampre Fondital team (www.lampre‑fonditalcom). In 2001, the Le Roi was ridden to victory in the Tour of Flanders, two Giro d'Italia stages (one sprint and one uphill time trial), two Tour de France stages, including the prestigious Champs-Elysees stage, the Vattenfall Cyclassic of Hamburg, and two sprint stages in the Vuelta a Espana, thus proving its ability to excel on all types of terrain and with all styles of riding.  The Chrome/Copper paint scheme utilizes an exciting new application of a process called Physical Vapor Deposition or PVD, in which a vaporized form of chromium is deposited in a thin film on the surface of the carbon by condensation. The result is an indestructible bond and a stunning chrome finish on a carbon fiber frame. The process complies with CEE regulations and does not produce any harmful waste
