Propel Advanced Pro Frameset
Ultimate Speed
Hang with the fast group, go for the sprint, cheat the wind on a solo ride. The new Propel Advanced Pro frameset is now lighter and more efficient, delivering higher speeds to help you maximize every effort.
Key Performance Factors
Instant Speed
In the moments when explosive speed matters most—launching an attack, chasing a break, or sprinting for the finish line—the new Propel Advanced Pro is quicker and more dynamic than ever. The frameset is lighter than the previous generation with greater torsional stiffness and pedaling stiffness—so you feel instantaneous reaction when you make your move.
SUSTAINED SPEED
Engineered for full-bike compliance, the new Propel Advanced Pro frameset delivers a significantly smoother ride when you’re rolling in the group or piling up training miles. The Vector seatpost offers greater compliance compared to the previous generation. The fork helps absorb bumps and vibrations up front. And additional tire clearance allows for high-volume tires up to 32mm, further smoothing out the ride to help you maintain higher speeds with less fatigue.
TOP-END SPEED
The frameset, including the frame, fork, Vector seatpost, and aero bottle cages, are designed to be part of a system to lower total resistance when you’re pushing high speeds in the wind—whether you’re on a solo break, taking pulls at the front, or powering away on a climb. OverDrive Aero technology includes a slim, tapered head tube paired seamlessly with a D-shaped fork steerer tube and spacers. Brake and shifter cables can be internally routed through the frame and fork, keeping them hidden from the wind.
Highlights
1
AEROSYSTEM SHAPING
Strategically engineered airfoil sections use truncated ellipse tubing to more effectively reduce drag compared to traditional teardrop shaped tubes. The system is developed and proven through CFD modeling and wind-tunnel testing at a wide range of yaw angles.
2
ADVANCED COMPOSITE
High-performance grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.
3
COMPOSITE FORK
Advanced SL-grade composite fork features a symmetric design and aero shaping, along with disc-brake integration and increased clearance for tires up to 32mm. The design makes it lighter, stiffer and more aerodynamic.
4
OVERDRIVE AERO
The D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easy-to-service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.
5
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
The frameset is designed with ports and channels to keep cables hidden from the wind while allowing for easy adjustability.
6
AERO BOTTLE CAGES
Custom-engineered down tube and seat tube specific bottle cages help reduce overall aerodynamic drag.
7
VECTOR SEATPOST
This proprietary seatpost design offers the perfect balance of light weight, aerodynamic performance and compliance, along with easy saddle installation and adjustment.
