ALPE D'HUEZ 01 FRAMESET

Alpe d'Huez 01

This exceptional bike is more than a match for its namesake climb clinging to the slopes above the Bourg d'Oisans valley. To tackle mythical ascents everywhere, we've created a legendary bicycle. At under 900g, the Alpe d'Huez 01 is the lightest frame TIME has produced. A simple look at the scale, however, doesn't reveal the agility and comfort of this remarkable machine. By blending Vectran© fiber with high-strength and high-modulus carbon, we've orchestrated the perfect balance of mass, rigidity, and deflection, the key ingredients for a climbing virtuoso.
