The most noticeable difference is in the handlebar. A Time Trial bicycle uses a base bar, with extension bars for the rider to get into a more aerodynamic riding position. Whereas a Road bicycle uses a conventional drop handlebar.
A Time Trial bike typically has a shorter wheelbase to put the rider closer over the front wheel.
The Scalini has a maximum tyre clearance of 700C x 26C
The Scalini is fitted with a Carbon Fibre base bar and extension bars with elbow rests.
No, the Scalini uses a very specific front brake from TRP TTV-F (TTV06F)-02. The recommended rear brake is TRP T851.
Constructed through expanded polystyrene (EPS) moulding. Preform moulding allows precise, uniform (wrinkle-free) and repeatable execution of the lay-up schedule. Uniform fibres increase strength reducing irregularities.
A leading edge fairing design on the seat tube, controls the airflow around the rear wheel, reducing the interference drag on the rear wheel. The integrated stem reduces interference drag between the frame and the stem, compared to traditional applications.
Tilt adjustment for extension bars, 10 ° adjustment. Spring-loaded quick-release on the brake lever Carbon Fibre brake lever blade Stack adjustment of stem and extension bars with spacers.
Semi-internal housing allows for relative ease of disassembly for packing. In-line barrel adjusters allow for small and accurate adjustment of cable tension.

Scalini has an external fork steerer. Instead of the traditional rounded head tube, an external head tube allows for the frame leading edge to be far more streamlined. Resulting in a smaller frontal area, a more streamlined profile, and ultimately decreased Form Drag on the leading edge. The stem is integrated into the top tube, further reducing the frontal area Form drag. The handlebar clamp is further streamlined, to reduce exposed area.
The longer wheelbase in conjunction with the super low stack height and steeper seat tube means the Scalini TT geometry places the rider in a more aerodynamic position, improving the combined aerodynamic efficiency of the bike and rider as a unit.
The Scalini features an integrated on-board Vision Metron hydration system and allocation for a Speedkit storage bag behind the seatmast. The Metron system features an articulated, collapsible straw attachment that enables the rider to easily take a drink at various angles, improving accessibility and convenience. *not available on the Frameset option.
The front brake caliper is tucked behind the fork, to reduce the interference drag the component will typically generate, mounted on the front. Trailing edge integration The rear brake caliper is tucked under the bottom bracket, to reduce the interference drag the component will typically generate, mounted on the seat stays. Trailing edge integration.
Seatclamp hidden inside the frame. This provides aerodynamic advantages and shaves some weight over a standard external seatclamp.
