Cento1 Superleggera Racing

Follow your competitive instincts. The era of imitations is over. Until now you could get the same tube profiles, color schemes, and even the same composite materials used by the pros. But never before had their special geometries been revealed, and that is the true secret of their bikes.

The Cento1 SLR was developed for the pros with their experience and needs in mind. No compromises. 101% racing.

Are you up for the challenge?

There are those who want to ride exactly what the pros do. Not just the same bike with identical materials – they want to ride the same geometries and position themselves just as aggressively. For 2011 we introduce the Superleggera Racing (SLR) in the same geometries used by Alessandro Petacchi and Damiano Cunego. Frame dimensions are modified for a shorter head tube and longer top tube. To distinguish the SLR framesets from the six standard sizes, we’ve implemented a special matte black finish.

Wilier Triestina developed WRMS (Wilier Racing Molding System) to offer our customers the same technology as used by our Pro Tour team, Lampre ISD. On the Cento1 Racing, comfort takes a back seat so that we can push performance to the limit. This frame differs from the base model Cento1 in the tube measurements and angles. We have elongated the top tube and shortened the head tube to allow for a more aggressive riding position. The rider can get lower on the bike, which reduces the frontal area's exposure to wind resistance. Cento1 Racing also has a steeper seat tube angle. This positions the rider more forward and improves bike handling and efficiency during hard accelerations. The molds used to lay-up the Cento1 Racing are the very same as those used for team Lampre ISD. It is available in 5 sizes. The frame is finished in matte black, and will be sold for the same retail price as the Cento1 SL.
