Description
The Ultra SL R is the result of doing something that has never been done before. It guarantees gains never seen on a road bike; it's aerodynamically optimised to make your fastest rides even faster. This carefully considered build is designed to provide you with a significant competitive advantage. It introduces you to the wireless shifting precision of Shimano's latest Ultegra Di2 R8100 series drivetrain, lightweight and aerodynamic Mavic Cosmic SL 65 carbon wheels paired with fast and puncture-resistant Pirelli P-Zero road tyres and a ground-breaking Ultra Aero carbon integrated handlebar-that shakes the very foundations of design, performance, and aerodynamic integration.
Groupset
Shimano Ultegra R8100 has been completely redesigned with all-new ergonomics, even greater brake modulation and the sheer precision of wireless electronic shifting. It delivers the world’s fastest and most reliable wireless shifting and a wide gear range which means no matter how steep a climb is; it’s never outside your comfort zone. Di2 gives you instant, accurate, lightning-fast shifts every time at the push of a button. Even in the most extreme of conditions, shifting is precise and controlled. You can even change gear under heavy load while climbing or accelerating. With Di2, you are in complete control.
Wheelset
Wind tunnel perfected to reduce inertia and maximise your watt output; Cosmic SL 65 offers solo breakaway artists, sturdy sprinters, and triathletes a wind-carving, progressive aerodynamic wheelset for fast, flat road races or windy triathlons. The 65mm deep and 19mm wide NACA rim profile helps to reduce drag, resulting in faster acceleration and enhanced crosswind stability. Paired with Pirelli P Zero road tyres, which balance performance with durability, for both reliability and comfort. The carcass features excellent puncture resistance, whilst coming in at an impressively low weight.
Handlebars
Developed specifically for the Ultra SL R, the Ultra Aero bars feature a patent-pending design that represents the next level in aerodynamic integration. The innovative wake generating concept disrupts the airflow, creating a wake for the rider's legs to sit within and manipulating vortexes around the rider to further enhance airflow. An aggressive looking and drag-defying anatomic wing top section further accentuates the bars aero credentials. It’s not all about the aero, however, with all-day ride comfort also at the forefront of design. The flat-top section also providing a comfortable hand position for climbing, whilst ergonomically optimised drops conform to the natural curvature of the rider’s palm and feature a textured finish that doesn't require bar tape.
Saddle
The Ultra Aero seat post features a truncated aerofoil profile that's aerodynamically optimised to reduce drag in the high-speed airflow disturbed by the rider's leg. A composite shaft absorbs road shocks for a vibration-smoothing ride quality further enhanced by a Selle Italia SLR Boost saddle. Bringing performance, comfort, and support to any endurance ride or race event, the SLR's neutral shape allows complete freedom of movement without compromising pedalling efficiency or power output.
