Forme Bikes (UK) – According to Forme Bikes, "the Flash mission was to introduce a fast, comfortable and well-integrated workhorse, designed to test the traditional perception of a road bike with unrivalled balance and chameleon-like ride characteristics across varied terrain and road conditions".

"When we introduce any new bicycle to our collection, we carefully consider the likely rider profile and ride conditions to deliver the very best ride for your personal, real world, adventures", added the company.

"The Flash provides stable acceleration and tracking with exceptional agility and comfort. Engineered using optimal modulus T800 and T700 carbon fibre to a size specific lay-up, with carefully pinpointed resin positioning and intelligent tube design to create a frame that can take a true British hammering! Tailor Built using one of 2 frame grades and fitted with either calliper or disc brakes. Front and Rear Thru-axles provide improved stiffness, precise installation and improved safety whilst also eliminating the tedious grind of the brake discs", they concluded about the new Flash Road Bike.

Features:

• Integrated Seat Clamp - The seat clamp is integrated in a recess at the side of the frame between the top tube and seat tube to improve both aerodynamics and aesthetics
• Vertical Compliance - Thin and dropped seat stays optimize vertical compliance and flexibility leading to a smooth and comfortable ride, even on rough roads
• Steerer Spacing - Between 0mm & 30mm of custom spacing is offered to tailor stack and reach measurements
• Cable Integration - To extend cable life and deliver faultless gear changes, all inner cables are fully sleeved and internally routed inside the frame and fork to ensure protection against typical British conditions
• Flat Mount Discs & Thru Axles - Flat Mount Disc brake options support a clean and compact braking system. Seamless thru axle design offers optimal power transfer and responsivity by making the frame/fork and wheel connection stiffer, stronger and more secure
