Description
This 2022 Time Alpe D'Huez frameset was built for display but never ridden. There is a paint chip on the seat tube and scratch on the right chain stay logo. Beyond that, it is in excellent condition and comes with a full factory warranty.
The TIME Alpe D'Huez 01 frameset represents the pinnacle of high-performance road racing technology, meticulously crafted as a monocoque structure. Available in six sizes and offering choices between disc or rim brakes, this frameset is designed to cater to a wide range of cyclists. It also includes a seatpost, ensuring added convenience and functionality. Whether for competitive racing or enthusiastic riding, the Alpe D'Huez 01 is engineered to deliver top-tier performance and exceptional comfort on the road.
Central to the frame's design is TIME's innovative BCS (Braided Carbon Structure) technology. This method involves weaving dry carbon fibers into complex bi-directional socks, allowing for fine-tuning with a variety of materials—TIME uses up to 16 filaments to perfect the layups. The BCS process provides a notable advantage by using continuous fibers that extend the entire length of the frame, unlike conventional prepreg layups where fibers terminate at the end of sheets, creating potential weaknesses. This technology ensures that the frame remains robust and reliable, setting TIME apart in the cycling world.
The Alpe D'Huez 01 also features Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), a process that injects resin under high pressure into molds with dry fibers, both externally and internally. This technique minimizes defects by eliminating air pockets and voids, resulting in a consistently high-quality frame with a near-finished appearance. While RTM is well-established in aerospace and high-end automotive sectors, its application in cycling is rare, making the TIME Alpe D'Huez 01 a distinctive choice for those seeking advanced technology and superior craftsmanship. This combination of BCS and RTM technologies underscores the frame's commitment to excellence and innovation in the cycling industry.
