Ribble - Aero 883
Every inch of this bike has been optimised to reduce drag, with a Kamm Tail* shaped seat tube and down tube and an integrated seat clamp built into the frame. This not only looks beautiful, but also reduces wind resistance. The frame can also accommodate the latest Direct Fit brake calipers offering excellent stopping power. Up front, the specially shaped aero head tube features integrated shrouds to direct air flow around its base and the shorter top tube means you can easily fit a pair of tri-bars to give you that lower tri position for aerodynamics. The rigorously tested aerodynamic tube profiles of the Aero 883 are shaped to minimise drag and the rear wheel is tucked up behind the partially curved seat tube creating a shorter wheelbase. A special blend of high-end T1000 and T800
unidirectional carbon composites ensures that the frame is both light yet stiff and has precise handling characteristics. The Aero 883s impressed BikesEtc the tubing is an object lesson in oversizing, especially at the keys areas for reducing flex and aiding power transfer namely the chain stays, head tube and frankly massive bottom bracket area. We are excited to work with a cutting edge design partner with this ground breaking bike. The Aero 883 was developed in association with Performance Engineered Solutions (PES) in Sheffield, a company whose core skills have been developed in the Formula 1 and MotoGP motorsport environments. Performance improvements at elite level are, according to PES, about understanding the sum of all parts. That includes understanding that designs should
deliver small repeatable gains in many different areas to deliver an overall winning solution. Performance at this level of sport is measured in 100ths of a second and microns. The team also has to work closely with and understand the athletes and support them so as to deliver the optimum performance package, say our experts in aerodynamic carbon composite design and testing. Hours of advanced computer simulations have resulted in a frameset of varying aerodynamic profiles - each optimised according to location to reduce turbulence across a wide range of wind directions (yaw angles). *German physicist Wunibald Kamm discovered that a teardrop shape whose tail straight cut reduces air turbulence and thus has very favourable aerodynamic properties. The Kamm-tail shape is widely used in the
automotive industry. Legendary models like the Ferrari Dino, the Ford GT40 and the Aston Martin DB6 use this technique to reduce air resistance. To bring this fast bike to a halt, you can choose between direct mount disc or direct fit rim brakes as the Ribble Aero 883 Disc is a new 2017 model. The Aero 883 and Aero 883 Disc are truly cutting edge bikes.
