This is an exceptional bike that offers tremendous value for money. It is currently our Flagship men’s bike and is offered with a super high-end specification.
Dedacciai bikes are made in Italy. They are very well known for the production of parts, such as stems, bars and bar tape.
However, they are renowned for making top quality framesets and produce custom frames for other manufacturers such as De Rosa, Ribble, Glider and other, more boutique, brands. They are now producing bikes for many of the top triathletes on the Pro Triathlon circuit and are currently supplying some of the GB Elite women.
The ‘Ran’ model was their top of the range model and held in very high esteem. It was the first batch of high-end aero bikes (like the Giant Propel) that offered incredible straight-line speed but with the added benefit (unlike other aero bikes) of having the ability to climb. With its state of the art frame it has carbon rear drop outs as well as Anti Wrinkle Process tubes that avoids internal wrinkling in the frame. Dedacciai then inject foam into the frame which fills out microscopic imperfections to ensure that the carbon finish is silky smooth, resulting in consistently strong frames. One tester reported “The response along the flat is like a steam locomotive from a past era, where it keeps going faster and faster”. Other testers said the bikes weight allowed it to climb with aplomb. With a frame weight of only 810 grams and forks that weigh just over 300 grams the Medium sized bike weighed in at 1135 grams.
Their bikes are available in different guises and spec’s but this bike has been ‘custom built’ by us as it was only available as a frameset.
One of the major selling points of this bike is it’s incredible spec. To match the top of the range frame we have mated it to Campagnolo’s very best Super Record groupset. This groupset is certainly one of the lightest on the market made that much nicer by its carbon finish. The bike has then been fitted with a full set of Dedacciai components that include a fully carbon Superleggero seatpost, Speda carbon alloy bars and Zero 100 stem. Deda Elementi Pro bar tape finish off the cockpit with a Selle Italia saddle. We have used a brand new set of Continental GP 5000 tyres to complete.
To allow the bike it’s wonderful climbing prowess and flat line speed we have used a pair of carbon Campagnolo Bora Ultra wheels. These are an amazing set of wheels that roll extremely well and give the bike an incredible turn of speed when under power. Due to their own relative light weight they also make an accomplished climbing wheelset adding to the bikes’ super ability . They would retail for over £2000.
It has a super stealth colour scheme that gives it huge kerb appeal and would make any new owner very happy. Because it’s custom built it makes the bike that much more unusual and extremely desirable.
