Cipollini Bond Evo Disc Road Frame

Cipollini Bond Evo Disc: The Perfect Balance of Racing and Comfort

It’s hard to find a bike that strikes the right balance between racing and comfort. The Cipollini Bond Evo Disc manages to do that and more thanks to some clever engineering and a natural feel for what the modern road cyclist wants.

The Bond Evo Disc is the latest development for the Cipollini endurance-oriented option. Made from high quality carbon fiber, this disc brake specific frame can easily accommodate up to 28mm tires, which will enhance the level of comfort you will have in the ride, as well as open up roads that are poorly paved or even packed gravel.

The frame has been made with two personalities. The top section like the top tube and the seatstays have been given a layup that will introduce a suppleness to deflect the road vibrations from reaching you. That takes nothing away from the responsive ride feel that you would expect from a Cipollini since the BB86 bottom bracket combined with a super stiff down tube and sturdy chainstays will help transfer all pedal power to the road.

Though the Bond Evo isn’t supposed to be the aero frame in the lineup, the engineers have designed it with aerodynamics involved. The seat tube cutout allows the rear wheel to snuggle up nice and close to the frame, smoothing airflow and the Kammtail-like cutoff of the seat tube and seat post helps reduce the drag. Internal cable routing for the hydraulic disc brakes and shifting cables keeps the front end tidy and aero-efficient.

Relaxed Geometry for Extended Riding on the Bond Evo Disc

The slightly more relaxed geometry encourages you to ride further and not worry about sore shoulders. This is a Cipollini, though, so you won’t feel out of place at the start line of a fast-paced crit or XL Gran Fondo.

The Cipollini Bond Evo Disc is available in five sizes and in several pre-build options as well as stand alone frame and fork.
