“ XD15 ceramic-hybrid bottom bracket and hub bearings combine silicon nitride grade 3 balls with an advanced, nitrogen-infused, aerospace steel bearing race that will never rust or corrode.
Au bikes feature more high-mod carbon to be as stiff and light as possible.Custom blends of different modulus carbon in different parts of each model’s frame to get the exact ride characteristics for that particular bike.It starts with the Carbon, Alchemy’s Premium High Modulus Carbon.
