Description: This traditional carbon frame features straight and elegant aerodynamic lines with an optimal rear wheel cut out for an unsurpassed amount of acceleration. The mix of high and medium modulus carbon frame is assembled using monocoque construction with 12K design which is certain to guarantee a stiff and lightweight ride while maintaining exorbitant speeds. Of course, as with all of Velo Vie’s innovative and top of the line bicycles, the Veloce 100 uses Carbon Axis Formula to guarantee the finest and fastest ride available. The Veloce is a dream for any triathlete or cyclist striving to triumph against their opposition.
My first ride on the Veloce was in a brick workout. I had it fitted and more or less dialed in on the trainer. The first test was going to be at full speed. I figure I will know right away if this is the bike for me.
I jumped on the bike after a moderately paced run and got going on the machine for 20 minutes of Zone 4 on a rolling course. Wow. That was so much fun. Every pedal stroke went into instant forward motion. It was so smooth at race pace, I just wanted to go faster and faster.
I've raced it twice since then. Both races I've averaged higher speeds than before. I had and average 2 mph faster than the same race last year. I know, hard to believe, but it's true. Fitness gains have to be a part of that, no doubt. But in both races I jumped off the bike in T2 with the legs feeling much fresher than my old ride.
Thoroughly satisfied and looking forward to more racing.
Strengths:
Customer service! They will bend over backwards for you. Dan and Shayna are flat out awesome.
And I heard good things are in the pipleline for the Veloce 200 and 300.
The price per performance, or bang for your buck, are going to be really tough to beat.
Aero and stiff (climbs like a champ and soaks up bumps at high speed)
Handles beautifully at full speed. Just a little pressure from the elbows and your cutting pretty lines.
Semi-custom. Just pick whatever components you want on the website. All bikes should be that easy to build.
