Wilier Triestina uses the latest generation of the monocoque system for all of their carbon frames. This technology, taken to the limit after years of research, allows for a lighter and better performing product with superior esthetic qualities and absolute reliability.

The lightness of the monocoque comes from the absence of overlapping tubes and lugs or joints. The quantity of materials used in the construction of the frame is therefore reduced considerably.

The elimination of potential critical points in the structure enhances the compactness and the capacity to respond to the strains of the terrain. The power from the athlete distributes itself more uniformly in the frame, making it more reactive, and in effect keeping to a minimum the waste of muscular energy. It also serves to increase the maneuverability of the bike in the choice of trajectory. To pedal a monocoque is to have total control even on the most difficult terrain.

One of the points of excellence of the Wilier Triestina monocoque system is the reliability. Stresses to the frame are not concentrated in any vulnerable area, which counteracts the stiffness of the frame. This benefits the safety of the cyclist.

Another indisputable advantage of the monocoque system is the esthetic: the frame is molded to have lines that are harmonious, smooth, and flowing. The results in the design of the bicycle and the finishing details are unparalleled.
