Iconic lines. The best ride.

Iconic lines. The best ride.

In this gains-at-all-cost era, beauty loses out. The Ultimate rises above the rest with simple, clean lines that reflect its exceptional ride quality.

Lightness is power

Lightness is power

High-grade fibres are only the start. It’s how they’re applied that unlocks next-level performance. Ultimate CFR blends Toray T1100 and T800 fibres with light, strong M40X for unparalleled stiffness-to-weight.

Aero for all-round speed

Aero for all-round speed

Lightweight does not mean losing out on speed. Our Ultimate engineering goal was to balance the lightest, aero-efficient tube profiles with benchmark stiffness-to-weight.

The evolution of the Ultimate

Now in its 5th generation, the drive behind designing and engineering each new Ultimate is to achieve perfectly balanced performance and a ride experience like no other.
