Velocite Helios Aero
Aero road
An aero frame that did not trade stiffness for its tube shapes. Designed with world championship winning aero bike designer Lewis Mathiske, it won a combined 2012 iF Design and Taipei Cycle d&i award. Its down tube already had a bottle recess, the idea the Syn later took much further.
