Except building our RoAD 2.0 frame with well-known Columbus tubes, Veloci design team decide to write more about our technical details beneath the paint which give our bikes signature look and great riding quality.
Head Tube
Our head tube is fully machined from very light material which is thinner at main body and reinforced at the ends to distribute stress from the rider and the road. These reinforced ends taper out to just the right diameter to meet the headset, making for a smooth transition front top Top & Down tube. Our top & down tube is bio-ovalized, which is vertically ovalized at the headtube to deal with the force transmitted from the road, and provide better vertical stiffness when you are standing up and hammering. And it is then ovalized horizontally at the bottom bracket to adding more horizontal stiffness and balance to transfer your pedaling power flawlessly to the rear wheel. These shapes also allow us to build our frames with thinner and lighter tubes which provide a more lively ride.

Seat tube & seat lug
Our parallelogram seat lug provides wider horizontal bed in the front for ovalized top tube junction and lower bed in the rear to allow seat stays to be welded lower for better rear triangle stiffness.
Seat stays
Seat stays plays important roles in riding comfort. Our curved seat stays helps soak up vibrations transferred from rear wheel, and remaining vibrations can be distributed by our seat lug and only left much less going through to your saddle.
Chain stays
Instead of following mainstream of choosing larger diameter chainstay, we choose 27mm vertical ovalized chainstay with much less taper length and adding vertical bridge tube to
creating better lower triangle stiffness. And then chainstays are welded to a well-proven Wright-style dropout to transfer your pedaling power flawlessly.
The combination of all the details makes our RoAD 2.0 the best choice for those who need a bike for speed and a taste for steel.
