Tommasini Carbolight 08 XLR8R T-flight rear + FK56 fork

£1,620.00

The new CARBOLIGHT is still build with CUSTOM XLR8R tubing, that gave high satisfaction to all numerous customers that choose to ride it, for performances, lightweight and resistance and obviously keep the bell shaped tubing section designed by Irio Tommasini for the top frame line.

The carbon fibre seat tube is held by a special hand cut aluminum lugs realized inside Irio?s Tommasini factory laboratory, and reproducing the stylized ?T? logo.
With this kind of hand work, that we already introduced in 2005 on the CARBOFIRE steel frame, Irio Tommasini wants to confirm the craftsmanship of his production, and the capacity to personalize his frames for the advantage of the customers that still look for something original and exclusive, sailing, unfortunately, in a moment of globalization of the markets and of the products, too.

In this sense, the choice to bring this personalization on different materials is motivated, and therefore they are realized on steel, on the CARBOFIRE frame, on aluminum, on CARBOLIGHT, and also on carbon fibre, on EVOL ?06 frame.

CARBOLIGHT is constructed with XLR8R custom tubing, personalized by the bell shape section that Irio Tommasini designed for the top line of his frames.
The 2008 up grade is the carbon fibre rear triangle, Tommasini exclusive, made in Italy and named T-FLIGHT, the same assembled on the Velocista and CarboLight frames.
Also, the rear aluminum replaceable drop out, are an absolute news of 2008, born from a personal patent of Irio and conferring more exclusivity to the frame.

The heat treatment is obligatory on aluminum parts and it is therefore strictly respected in order to obtain
a safe and resistant frameset.
The ?cataforesi? treatment, instead, is a Company choice that is worries to preserve the frame from oxidation.
The assembly of the two materials, aluminum and carbon fibre, is made with the maximum care, and accordingly with the best Tommasini tradition, carbon tubes are mitered to realize the ?perfect joint? that grants resistance to road shocks. The assembly needs many hours of consolidation that is completely respected.

The head tube has a metal badge that has been engraved and enameled. Colors and paint jobs can be chosen among the list and examples in our catalogue, we also offer customized paint designs.

Suggested fork: FKT56 1-1/8? full carbon.
