The Serenissima Gravel won yesterday by Lutsenko He said two things, or rather three. The first is that suddenly the companies that invested in the sector felt a great desire to say itThe second is that Not everyone, despite what was thought, was actually equipped with the trendiest bikes of the last few months. The third, which is partly unrelated to the previous aspects, is that If Pozzato and Moletta had contacted the manufacturers instead of inviting the teams, they would have had other teams at the start as wellBecause not being there was a commercial misstep, and those who believed in it are now ahead of the game. Like Deda, for example…

Exclusive news

They tell Bardiani that when in Deda Elementi they knew that the team would participate, they went out of their way to provide the best in the catalog, also bringing out a couple of gems that were supposed to remain under embargo until the end of October. In fact, the 2022 catalogue stands out four new gravel handlebars, with a wide choice of shapes to suit every size of rider. a pair of aluminum wheels, the Gera Alloy, which can really make a difference in the various possible assembly options.

Infinite positions

Among the gravel handlebars, the Gera Alloy stands out, which was created specifically for off-road use and is derived from the Superzero, produced with 7050 aluminum and which in the road version comes in sizes from 42 to 46 for a weight of 305 grams. Gera Alloy instead uses the 6061 alloy and its weight reaches 310 grams also and above all for the need for solidity.

But gravel and road have few points of contact, the influence of American taste and market has led to a wide choice of sizes and positions for the handsThe most striking detail is the difference in width between the top and bottom: the difference is 10 centimetres, so a 48 handlebar at the bottom of the curve will be 58 centimetres wide. The curve drawing falls within the acronym EOS, or endurance Optimized ShapeAssembly is possible with internal and external cables.

24-spoke wheel

Likewise, it is worth noting the birth of the Gera Alloy wheels, 100% made in Italy product with 25mm profile and 28mm external channel and 23mm internal channelThe peculiarity of the circle is the its asymmetry, with a series of gravel hubs. The asymmetric design and 24-spoke lacing result in high stiffness in exchange for a rather low weight, essential conditions for reducing the moment of inertia at each relaunch of the wheel. The weight of the pair is 1.690 grams. Also in this case the finish is Gravel to match the handlebars.
