Adapting to your competitive style The Aerolight RC frame incorporates a wide range of options to adapt to the needs of each competition

1. The triathlon frame that adjusts to all of your needs The Aerolight RC is a machine built to compete in triathlons. It was designed thinking about the aerodynamics of the triathlete, to reach maximum speeds with less effort. Therefore, it includes some of the greatest technological and design innovations of the Aerolight, a reference frame in the triathlon market. The Aerolight RC includes a wide range of options so that the triathlete may prepare the machine based on his/her needs and racing demands. The seat tube may be adjusted in four ways, offering the assembly of any stem, any braking system on the market.

2. Built out of 100% carbon. Aerodynamic speed The Aerolight RC line is built out of 100% carbon, based on the same principles as the other top of the line BH frames like the Ultralight or the Aerolight. It was designed to achieve optimal air penetration and perfect biomechanical positioning.

This patented manufacturing process uses a combination of carbon fibres of high, medium and low modules in order to achieve the high quality standards demanded by BH. In all Aerolight RC tube cross-sections, formulas have been applied and tests and analyses have been undertaken to maximize the frame’s aerodynamics without affecting its rigidity.

3. Oversized bottom bracket. Greater torsional stiffness BH oversized the bottom bracket in order to incorporate the BB386EVO system, which ensures greater torsional stiffness and increased rider efficiency. This innovative design allows the width of the external bottom bracket to be increased to 86.5 mm, providing greater flexiblity to produce a superior frame design.

4. Head set. Allows for incorporation of any stem The narrowness of the head set, at a mere 1 1/8” both in its upper and lower part, lowers the coefficients of air friction. In addition, it is compatible with any standard stem on the market.

5. Seat tube. Optimizing air flow The cross-section uses the aerodynamic Kamm-Tail design, optimizing the passage of air across the seat. This design allows for adjustment of the seat angle in 4 ways so that the racer can attain a more relaxed or a more aggressive posture, depending on the type of competition that he/she is facing.

The combination of the oversized bottom bracket design, allowing the incorporation of the BB386EVO system, together with the position of the chain stays makes the Aerolight frame appropriate for even the widest wheels in the sector.

In building the Aerolight RC frame, innovative technology has been used to allow for control, optimization and personalization of the ideal thicknesses for different frame parts, using the most appropriate carbon for its development with minimal overlapping to ensure extreme rigidity and lightness.
