The new CCD EVO cage is designed to deliver superior performance, proving faster, stiffer, lighter, and more aerodynamic than previous models.

Features and Innovations:
Increased Stiffness: The new structure maintains the brand's technical DNA and has been optimized to offer superior rigidity and extreme durability. The unique and recognizable design is the result of meticulous attention to every single design detail.
Increased Lightness: The design of the carbon cage and pulleys has been completely revised, both in geometry and thickness, to offer a modern visual harmony while maximizing lightness and performance efficiency.
Optimized Aerodynamics: Based on developments from the CCD AERO model, the EVO version features a redesigned front surface and hardware, tested in a wind tunnel. This optimization improves air penetration and increases aerodynamic efficiency by 66% compared to the standard CCD model.
High-Precision Machining: The high level of finishing stems from a new global approach to design. The geometries and thicknesses have been finely reworked, resulting in a 200% increase in machining time to achieve superior quality standards.
Titanium Hardware: The rear part of the cage features new titanium screws with a black finish, which help reduce weight and provide a premium aesthetic. The dark coloring of the structure facilitates visual integration with the bicycle, while titanium ensures an optimal weight-to-strength ratio.

Installation and Maintenance:

Cassette: It is recommended to use a cassette with a maximum of 34 teeth to ensure optimal adjustment and shifting.
Chain: To ensure maximum performance, replacing the chain at the time of installation is strongly recommended, adding 2-4 extra links compared to the standard length.
Longevity and Lubrication: The robust design features full-ceramic bearings protected by dedicated aluminum covers, designed to maximize lifespan and minimize wear compared to standard plastic pulleys. The system operates completely dry and minimizes the need for intervention: no grease is required.
Cleaning: Thanks to its 100% ceramic composition, the system is completely immune to oxidation. In case of debris buildup between the covers and bearings during use, a simple wash with water or degreaser is sufficient.
Important Warning: As these bearings are designed to run dry, NEVER apply any type of lubricant.
