With the same incredibly dialed geometry as the
Xenith SL and Xenith Team, the same high modulus carbon fiber and Dyad
Elite fiber lay-up as the Team, the Elite delivers crushingly dominant
pedal efficiency for squirt-outta-corners acceleration and rocketlike
ascents, without the price tag of the top-tiered SL and Team, and only a
few ounces more heft.
SRAM’s Red drivetrain and
brakes, American Classic’s slick 420 Aero 3 wheels on Vittoria Rubino
Pro Slicks and a Ritchey Pro cockpit mean we didn’t skimp on the parts
that matter—this is a bike that will more than hold its own, whether
your beat is the local crit, district championships, or the weekend club
ride (which, let’s face it—is just a race without numbers pinned to
your jersey).

Features
Features /Benefits
The Elite’s Femme version features female specific geometry in four sizes, with size &
gender specific handlebar, stem and saddle. SRAM’s brake levers allow reach from the
bar to be adjusted for smaller or larger hands.
The Elite Femmes frame and fork feature a new DYAD lay-up called Elite, which is stiffer,
lighter, snappier than our traditional Dyad lay-up, thanks to a higher percentage of high
modulus carbon fiber.
The Xenith’s Tri-Oval SST differential tubing diameters (larger diameters on larger frames,
smaller diameters on smaller frames) support big riders without punishing smaller ones.
The Xenith’s Tri-Oval differential tubing diameters (larger diameters on larger frames,
smaller diameters on smaller frames) support big riders without punishing smaller ones.
The Xenith’s “conventional”, non-integrated seat tube/seat post design simplifies test rides
as well as travel and enhances re-sell value.
Designing the fork to incorporate a 1.5” crown race allowed us to produce a full-hollow
fork, from steerer tube through crown and down to the dropouts: it’s not just lighter,
it’s stronger!
Our seatstays run full length from dropout to seat tube increasing lateral stiffness while
offering greater vertical compliance than standard larger diameter monostays.
Our forged one-piece dropouts, with replaceable derailleur hanger, offer greater strength
and reliability than the industry-standard bolted & glued dropouts.
Xenith’s “muscle” shaped chainstays are asymmetrical, with the driveside 10% larger than
the non-driveside, yielding 30% more volume & stiffness to offset drivetrain torque.
Our front derailleur clamp spreads shifting forces around the tube instead of localizing
them at one point as would the more standard rivet-on front derailleur perch.
The top of the Xenith seat tube is slotted twice on each side to spread clamp torque
around the tube, and seat posts are securely clamped with a lightweight 1-bolt 7075 seat
clamp.
The larger 46mm bore diameter of the PressFit 30 BB system increases ply compaction
yielding a lighter frame with increased frame strength. The key difference with PressFit
30 is how the bearings are fitted into the frame. Bearings are housed in nylon cups that
are pressed into the frame’s bottom bracket shell. Like BB30, PressFit 30 uses the same
bearing that is designed for a 30mm spindle cranksets. Advantages of PressFit 30:
Improved bearing-to-shell interface, greater bearing durability and simple installation.
American Classic 420 Aero 3 wheelset takes performance to a new level: 34mm deep
section aero rims weighing only 420 grams (the lightest deep section rim in the world),
bladed spokes and AC’s superlight hubs and a unique spoke pattern on the rear wheel
that equalizes spoke tension.
SRAM’s Red group is the lightest in the world, featuring carbon, titanium and
DoubleTap shifting.
Selle San Marco popular Aspide Glamour was designed with female racer feedback
specifically designed for women.
