Product Overview
The Kalibur is a triathlon / time trial bike that responds like a world class road bike. With its Kevlar reinforced rear triangle and beefed up crank area every ounce of pressure you deliver to the pedals thrusts the bike forward. There is no question why the Kalibur is the weapon of choice for the 2X Ironman World Champion as this bike is built for powerful cyclist. Features include:
- Aerodynamic 3k Monocoque Carbon Weave Frame and Fork: Kutoa's carbon placement provides rigidity in the drive train area while still delivering a comfortable ride.
- Air Foil Seatpost: The seatpost is shaped to smooth airflow as it exits the rear of the bike, thus reducing drag.
- Rear Wheel Cutout: Creates a smooth air transition from the frame to the spinning wheel, thus reducing drag (even without an aero wheel).
- Internal Cable Routing: Designed to smooth airflow across the down and head tube.
- Component Package: The Kalibur wheels and components are designed for training and racing. For a "pure racing" set-up, please call Nytro for upgrades.
