Handsling TSTRevo
'TSTRevo (pronounced TESTER-evo)'
Handsling has spent the past year developing the TSTRevo, a dedicated speed machine designed to help riders slice through the air in time trials and triathlons. A tester is a traditional term for a cyclist competing in solo events against the clock.
The frame is UCI-approved and utilises cutting edge aerodynamics. Every tube profile is aerodynamically optimised to help set that new personal best time.
The quest for speed is aided by a bespoke, fully adjustable, carbon time trial bar helping riders to reduce their frontal area and further cheat the wind.
Importantly, despite its aerodynamic shape, the frame still has exceptional stiffness, so that every watt of rider power is directed into forward motion.
Configure your TSTRevoRide Experience
The TSTRevo is the definition of a modern time trial machine. Its sleek aero profile and super-stiff carbon layup optimise every watt of power, yet it offers so much more than pure speed; the bike is stable and grounded, with the added confidence of disc brakes. Its modern geometry and adjustable cockpit allows you to achieve your optimum position. With the ability to fit up to 32mm tyres, it soaks up road vibrations, enabling you to focus on saving those vital seconds.
Manufacture
- Manufactured using Toray T800, one of the most high-performance carbons on the market.
- Internal EPS moulds result in increased carbon compaction to make the frame tougher, lighter and stiffer.
- Carbon layup provides massively stiff headtube, downtube, bottom bracket shell, and chainstays for efficient power transfer.
- Handsling controls all aspect of production and owns the moulds used to manufacturer the frames.
- Rigorous testing procedures surpass ISO standards.
Design
- Designed 100% in-house and engineered by one of the best in the business.
- Integrated hidden cables provides aerodynamic efficiency.
- Tube profiles are aerodynamic in real world conditions, no matter the wind direction.
- Clearance for 32mm tyres to combine race-winning performance with enhanced comfort.
- Short head tube enables a low aggressive position.
- Steep seat tube angle places the rider further over the bottom bracket for pedalling efficiency.
- Low slung base bar for aero efficiency and fully-adjustable cockpit.
- Designed to accommodate modern wireless electronic disc-brake groupsets.
- BSA external threaded bottom bracket.
Cockpit Adjustability
- Stem: 1.5cm of fore/aft movement
- Spacer stack: Minimum spacer stack 1cm above base bar. Maximum spacer stack 8.5cm above base bar.
- Cups: 3cm of fore/aft movement, 4cm of lateral (side-to-side) movement
- Extensions: 7cm of fore/aft movement (shortest reach may require extensions to be cut).
Bike customisation
- Choose your colour from a wide range of options.
