Components for racing bicycles: tubes for dynamic frames in special and lightened steels, round and shaped
Trafiltubi supplies its tubes to the best high-end bicycle manufacturers, known worldwide for the quality of their products.
But let’s also remember that, since its beginnings, Trafiltubi has promoted research in the racing bicycle sector, developing the best solutions for more competitive performance. Research for advanced solutions in the racing bike sector led Trafiltubi, in 2004, to develop new bicycle frame prototypes in special 15CDV6 tubing, lightened and not painted, but only protected by nickel-plating.
As an evolution of this project, Trafiltubi then promoted studies for innovation from which the new exclusive tubing was born, patented and marketed since 2007: theHInoxTUBE®. Stainless tubes made by cold-drawing an extremely high-performance stainless material that is also weldable and workable, highly resistant to corrosion (from humid and saline environments but also from organic acids such as sweat); a material that until then had only been used in solid form and for extreme applications in the aeronautical, space and nuclear sectors.
HInoxTUBE® is used to produce the exclusive XCr Columbus tube series and the Gilcocelebratory frames.
