TIME LAPSE YOUR BIKE SPLIT
It is a well known fact that the biggest gains are made in the bike split. Any edge you can obtain will help shave precious minutes and seconds on the bike. The Aquila Crono’s sole purpose is to amplify bike and rider efficiency. CFD optimized tube construction, seamless component integration, and an extensive rider positioning capabilities. The Crono is the pinnacle bike for the modern day triathlete.
Over the past 5 years, bikes have changed at a rapid rate. The advancements that we see today amongst many of the bikes warranted a revision to the Equipe platform. However, we weren’t looking to reinvent the wheel. We were looking to make it better.
FULL CARBON COCKPIT
Compromise is something that we never settle for at Aquila. The crono features a best in class full carbon aero bar system. The prime example of function and form. Full range of adjustability, aerodynamics, and the comfort that only a carbon front end will provide.
CFD OPTIMIZED TUBE CONSTRUCTION
Through extensive work running countless protocols using CFD software, and real world testing with Pan American medalist Sean Mackinnon, we were able to achieve a finely tuned composition of tube sets that have allowed us to achieve the fastest iteration of the Aquila Crono. A platform that we first launched back in 2002.
ISM PSN 3.0 SADDLE
Recognized as the leader in modern triathlon saddle design. The Crono features the latest and greatest from ISM in the PN 3.0. Offering superb thigh and hamstring clearance, which allows for a greater range of supportive mobility, maximum blood flow, and a saddle that will literally feel that it disappears beneath you.
