STORCK unveils the new Fascenario
GER – Bad Camberg – After a long development process, Storck Bicycle is proud to present their newest addition to their already standard setting line-up. Utilizing a new VVC process and new high end carbon fibres, Storck has managed to build another bike with a sensational stiffness-to-weight ratio.
Storck bicycle is a leader in building high end carbon fibre bicycle frames. Their newest frame’s look and technology are second to none. The new vacuum void controlled production process allows for a better allocation of ultra high modular carbon fibre, meaning less resin in the carbon. The result is less weight and increasing stiffness.
The frame comes in a no more than 852g using the super-light 1K-Carbon, and naked even a little below the 800g mark. Pair that up with Storck’s Stiletto Light UMS fork and you have a frame and fork combo that weighs in at 1180g, just about as much as a gallon of milk.
The stiffness of a frame depends on the quality of the carbon used, and the manner in which the carbon is woven and bonded. Carbon fibres are categorized in K-units. The amount of K-units is defined by how many thousand filaments there are per fibre. The smallest and most expensive carbon is the 1K-fiber. 1K is woven in very narrow strands and produces the highest stiffness values in all directions. Depending on the amount of K-units the Fascenario delivers new world record values of 120-145 Nm/Degree/Kg.
The new Fascenario will utilize the 1K carbon and will be available to the public in early March. World record quality at a reasonable price – in Germany for only € 3.599. Storck Bicycle has worked directly on and developed the new VCC process so that the new frame underlines, once more, the high quality reputation that Storck is known for worldwide.
