MMR, or another Spanish brand that is pushing on the accelerator. For several seasons it has been alongside the Caja Rural-Insurance RGA and its growth in the international market is constant.
The Adrenaline platform has been renewed and shows up not only with a bike, but with well three versions, each with its own specificities and peculiarities. The SL is the lightest MMR design ever, then there are the Adrenaline with standard carbon , Aero version. Let's go into detail.
Adrenaline and SL, carbon is different
The design and shapes they are the same, what changes completely is the carbon modulus. For the In the standard version, a blend of intermediate modulus fibres was used, while for the bike with the suffix SL has been used high and ultra high modulus carbonThe latter registers a declared value on the scale of approximately 800 grams, without painting (while the declared weight of the standard module is 1.095 grams).
For both, the choice was made for the round pipesThe reason is related to the weight reduction, with the will to increase stiffness at the same time. Furthermore, considering that it is not a model dedicated to extreme aerodynamic research, the round shapes have helped to contain the frontal impact, without negatively affecting torsional stiffness.
Reach and stack change
La Adrenaline SL was developed hand in hand with professional athletes, the standard version is aimed at an audience that loves granfondo, or in any case considers the right ratio between rigidity/weight/comfort.
It is important to underline that compared to the older version the geometries have been completely changed. For the same size, the new MMR is lower (reduced stack) and slightly longer (increased reach).And then there's the added benefit of greater and better integration, which makes the aesthetic impact even cleaner.
Very interesting versions and prices
There are 5 sizes for both: XS, S and M, L and XL, all sharing a rear carriage “only” 410 millimetres long, very compact. The The standard MMR Adrenaline configurations are four: 00 Plus Shimano Ultegra Di2 with Vision SC45 carbon wheels, 00 always with the Ultegra and with DT Swiss 1800 wheels, 10 and 30 set-ups) with Sram Force AXS (Quarq power meter included) and Shimano 105 Di2. The list prices are 4.961 and 4.154 euros, 5.162 and 3.549 euros respectively.
The SL is available in two packages, SL 00 and SL 10The first one comes with the Dura Ace Di2 transmission (power meter included) and DT Swiss ARC1400 wheels, with a list price of 8.188 euros. The Adrenaline SL 10 has the Ultegra Di2 transmission and DT Swiss ARC1400 wheels. DT Swiss ERC1400 45 millimeters, with a list price of 6.171 euros (declared weight on the scales of 7,35 kilograms).
Adrenaline Aero, aerodynamics above all
Unlike the first two bikes that we can address to climbers, the MMR Aero It is available with a carbon fiber blend that combines the intermediate modulus T700sm with the high modulus T800H. Weight reduction is not the primary goal of this bicycle (the declared weight on the scale is 1.250 grams for the frame), which aims to be fast, extremely rigid and aerodynamically efficient.
The aesthetics also recall a strong racing propensity which finds confirmation in the geometries, low and rather compactThe reach and stack of the different sizes confirm this. The first ranges from 37,6 centimetres for the XS, up to 42 centimetres for the XL, while the stack is between 50 and 57,8 centimetres (there are 5 sizes). the rear carriage is very short with its 406 millimetres and all the measurements are united by a seat tube angle of 74°.
Equipment and prices
The MMR Aero comes in four trim levels and prices: 00 Plus, 00 and 10.30, with list prices of 5.566 euros, 4.356 and 5.289 euros respectively, plus 3.777 euros. The set list follows the logic of the classic Adrenaline, which starts with Ultegra Di2 and Vision carbon wheels, then moves down a notch to DT Swiss aluminum wheels. The 10 build has Force AXS with a power meter, while the 30 has 105 Di2.
