Fore CR5 - 2010

OVERVIEW

What do you get when you interview hundreds of riders, questioning them about their desires for the ultimate road bike and then, spend thousands of hours translating those ideas into reality? A dream come true. We call it the Fezzari Foré CR5. It is the pinnacle of road bike performance. From its state of the art, proprietary Fezzari Racing Design Xr5 3K monocoque carbon frame to its best-of-market components, the Foré CR5 is THE ultimate road bike. Our designers and engineers didn't cut corners.

Take, for instance, the state of the art proprietary Fezzari Racing Design XR5 3K monocoque carbon frame. We used the highest grade of carbon available on the market. We made it even stiffer laterally by enlarging the bottom bracket shell and stengthening the headtube. But it's even softer vertically for a smooth ride even on cobblestones. The XR5 frame was recently tested to be one of the most durable frames on the market. And, it weighs a mere 900 grams. Strength, lightweight, rigidity where you need it most, and flexible enough to take the edge off of rough roads -- it's the perfect frame for anyone who wants to get the most out of their riding experience.

Next, take a look at the perfect blend of components. The Foré CR5 includes full Dura Ace components, FSA K-Force Light Carbon Crankset, Fezzari F3 XrT 3K carbon ultralite fork with carbon steerer tube, FSA K-Force shallow drop carbon bars, 3K carbon seat post, and even carbon spacers.

Finally, add sleek graphics and a transparent finish to show off the carbon and you have it--the ultimate road ride.
