The Wilier Rave SL is the most versatile model in the middle category. Whether your goal is road or gravel use, all you have to do is select the equipment and the Rave SL is ready for anything! This is supported by the geometry, the choice of frame material, the equipment and the whole character of the bike. This bike is always the way you want it to be.
Carbon fiber fabrics can be grouped in two ways. We can categorize according to tissue density and their types. There are classic crocheted (e.g. 1K, 3K, 12K) fabrics, and there are unidirectional, i.e. non-crocheted UD (unidirectional) fabrics.
The other grouping point is that a carbon fiber fabric has a high modulus, is strong, or is capable of high resistance. The former are very stiff and light, the latter are extremely resistant and more flexible. You cannot build a frame that is light, rigid and suitable for racing at a serious level without the dominant use of the former! However, without the latter, frame production does not exist.
Wilier works with Mitsubishi carbon and its own developed premium fabrics, and it uses fabrics jointly dreamed up with several manufacturers.
HUS-MOD: One of the best quality carbon fabrics made exclusively for Wilier. The 65TON hyper high modulus carbon fabric supplemented with Liquid Crystal technology is always stiff when it is most needed, but can also offer comfort when appropriate. A unique development from a unique manufacturer.
NH-MOD/NHU-MOD: The carbon fabric of the NH-MOD and NHU-MOD represents an unparalleled balance of performance and comfort for everyone. A high degree of rigidity and comfort - above all, the reality of perfect synergy characterizes this product.
60TON: Mitsubishi's 60TON carbon fabric represents an exceptional balance of performance and lightness for all cyclists. It is also characterized by excellent rigidity and good vibration absorption.
46TON: Mitsubishi's all-in-one multifunctional carbon fabric. Adequate stiffness and exceptional comfort were the focus of the design work.
The Wilier Rave SL is a light, disc brake, NHU-MOD + high modulus carbon frame ready to race gravel and road bike. The frame of the Rave SL weighs only 1,090 grams on the scale in size M, making it one of the very light gravel-based mid-range frames in the peloton.
Quality carbon frame, excellent equipment and beautiful Italian design.
Rave SL + Ultegra Di2 2x12 + Miche SWR40 EVO Carbon: Shimano's Ultegra Di2 2x12 electric component family, Ritchey's aluminum cockpit, and Miche's SWR40 EVO Carbon wheels complement each other well. The equipment of the Wilier Rave SL is also worthy of the reputation of the legendary lily manufacturer, for everyone who is committed to high quality.
