Blue AC1 Road Frameset 2012

It isn’t the weight of your bike, gravity or the friction in the bearings and tires that has you working so hard on your weekend rides. No, it is the wind resistance. This force of nature and physics is what makes the road so hard some days. You don’t have to be a Pro Tour racer or even a local weekend racer to appreciate aerodynamics. Riding farther with less energy is a goal for everyone.

Fortunately there is the redesigned AC1 from Blue Competition Cycles. The unique design of the top tube allows it to be comfortable for the long haul and the SFT2 (Super Flow Tube Technology) allows it to be 21% more efficient than a round tube frame. Combined with a new tapered 1-1/8 ” to 1-1/4 carbon steer tube and BB30 bottom bracket for efficiency in pedaling and climbing this bike will allow you to take more county line sprints or just see more county lines.
