TECHNICAL DETAILS

DRIVING CHARACTERISTICS

ESSENTIA inherits the geometry and main qualities of the MAGMA to offer a high-performance bike.

Stiffness

For maximum power delivery and fast, confident cornering.

Comfort

For long routes and to guarantee that the cyclist can always deliver the best of himself.

Aerodynamics

Reducing aerodynamic resistance to obtain the best efficiency and maximum speed.

Weight

For a lively ride feel and energy savings, without compromising stiffness and comfort.

BIKERADAR

“ESSENTIA is a tamer version of the former pros’ MAGMA lightweight speedster” 

frame geometry is key, the soul of the frame

Alberto Contador and Ivan Basso dreamt for years to design a bike’s frame geometry based on their experience, and it was paramount that all the frame sizes would handle that way. To achieve that, the Trail figure (the combination of the head tube angle and fork offset) was the starting point.

Through experience and ride testing (with different test forks and wheel sizes) the AURUM team set an ideal Trail dimension, for the best balance of quick steering but also stability at high speed. Often small frame sizes get a compromised handling, with a long Trail that makes turning slow and unlively. AURUM uses two different fork offsets depending on the frame size, which combined with the proper head tube angle results in a Trail that is always lively and fun as intended, also for the smaller frame sizes.

Stack and reach will put you in a race position for out-and-out performance, yet allow comfort for a long ride. Short, oversized chainstays contribute to a climber’s configuration, while a low bottom bracket height helps achieve an assured center of gravity coupled with a generous wheelbase that delivers a reassuring stability, however fast your descent.

Experience Carbon Technology: ECT

The experience of the carbon factory with which AURUM works, added to that of Alberto Contador and Ivan Basso, in their years of professional competition, and their meticulous attention to detail when perfecting the product together with the R&D team from AURUM, result in a carbon treatment process that we have defined as Experience Carbon Technology: ECT
