VA-AFO
  • BORN FOR SPEED
    To chase victory at this year’s Tour de France, we've worked every detail through highly sophisticated wind resistance technology and utilized cutting edge Torayca ® carbon fiber.
  • OUTRIDE YOUR PAST
    VA-AFO demolishes disruptive airflow and resistance to grant you unhindered speed and performance. Your only task? To be faster than you were a second ago.
  • ALL FOR AERO
    Streamlined design, maximum performance!
  • BORN FOR SPEED
    To chase victory at this year’s Tour de France, we've worked every detail through highly sophisticated wind resistance technology and utilized cutting edge Torayca ® carbon fiber.
  • [ V:C1 Cockpit ]
    Our all-new aero handlebars V:C1 represent an accumulation of precise calculations across each curve, utilizing a flattened top shape that enhances aerodynamic performance while providing more stiffness and comfort for cruising. The V:C1 flares outwards by 3-degrees to smoothen the position transition to sprinting.
  • [ TORAYCA T1100G/M46X Approved ]
    When maximizing aerodynamics, there is no need to compromise on weight or stiffness! We utilize premium Torayca® T1100G and M46X carbon fiber from Japan’s renowned Toray, combined with our exclusive DGTM carbon. This advanced composite offers greater stiffness than the previous VSRu model while reducing weight by 100 grams.
  • [ Velocity Aero Shape ]
    VA-AFO is the best-performing design across all our meticulous calculations, decreasing air resistance while increasing overall stiffness with its widened head tube and down tube, seat stays, and chainstays designed to funnel airflow.
  • [ SLT by CeramicSpeed ]
    To ensure stable handling on long rides, the VA-AFO is equipped with CeramicSpeed's SLT headset bearings, which use solid, oil-encapsulated casings that are self-lubricating and fully sealed, protecting them from water and dirt.
  • [ Velocity Aero Geometry ]
    The VA-AFO frame uses DARE’s linear geometry with a shorter head tube and longer top tube for an aero position and lower center of gravity, enhancing comfort on long rides. Combined with the V:C1, up to 17 standard sizes are available, and even 12 unique sizes, guaranteeing you’ll find the right fit for any of your geometry adjustment requirements.
  • [ VA Intergrade Mount Ready ]
    The Cockpit design includes a mount that can be locked on directly and is compatible with GARMIN/Wahoo/Bryton computers and lights, and GoPro cameras. And both integrated designs are aerodynamic and stylish.
  • [ V:P1 Aerodynamic Adjustable Seat Post ]
    The V:P1 aerodynamic seat post can be adjusted 30mm, so cyclists can easily achieve a posture suitable for the type of ride or riding habit.
  • [ 32C Tire Available ]
    The notion that wider tires increase resistance has been disproven. Wider tires improve comfort and stability, enhancing rider performance. The frame accommodates tires up to 32C, and equipping it with wider rims further improves aerodynamic performance!
