CuadroELVES Amanyar 1.0 Carbon Triathlon Disc Framesets,TT Carbon Disc Framesets
Creado: 27 de marzo de 2026The reviewer (Daniel) is presenting his new ELVES Amanyar triathlon/time trial bike, which he received with a discount but is not sponsored by the brand. He has just had it built and is at a bike fitter (George) to set it up for racing. The reviewer has not yet ridden the bike on the road. The bike fitter, George, provides his initial impressions from a fitting perspective. They discuss the frame's design (notably the lack of a seat tube), the adjustability of the cockpit and extensions, the integrated hydration system, and the seatpost. The reviewer's main concern is the structural integrity of the frame due to its unique design and his weight being close to the limit. He reserves final judgment until after riding and racing it.
Resumen IA
Pros
- The paint job is great.
- The upgraded cockpit has aerodynamic, padded extensions with a deep profile for more contact surface area and comfort.
- The extensions are adjustable in length, which is good for the reviewer's long forearms.
- The cockpit offers plenty of stack height adjustment.
- The base bar uses a standard 31.8mm clamp, allowing for angle adjustment and potential aftermarket changes.
- The bike comes with a box of different bolts and risers for adjustment.
- The frame has an integrated hydration system with space for a specific bottle (like an Elite bottle) and a built-in bento box.
- The brand (Elves) is noted for having affordable replacement parts (e.g., seatposts).
Cons
- The frame lacks a traditional seat tube (C-tube), raising a concern about potential flex or strength, especially given the reviewer's weight (99kg) is close to the 100kg limit.
- The external Di2 junction box (blip box) is noted as not being integrated; a newer, smaller version might allow it to be hidden.
- The integrated hydration system's plug is not a super flush fit, which might cause it to work loose on bumpy roads or leak.
- The hydration bottle holder is designed for a specific bottle (likely an Elite style); a normal bottle would not fit.
- The seatpost is a single piece with no hole underneath, and it has been cut down to fit. This is a limiting factor for fit and resale value if too much is cut off.
- The bike fitter notes that the refinement at the front end is 'okay' but not the most refined due to visible bolts on the bottom of the extensions.
- The performance (aerodynamics) and compliance claims have not been validated by the reviewer through riding.
- The bike fitter expresses a general criticism that many top bike brands don't offer enough adjustability, though this is not a direct con of this specific bike.
Key Points
- The bike is an ELVES Amanyar triathlon/time trial bike.
- The frame set price is mentioned as being 'just over £1,500' from memory.
- It has a unique frame design without a traditional seat tube (C-tube), which the brand claims adds compliance.
- The weight limit for the frame is 100kg.
- The reviewer is 6'2" and riding the largest size available.
- The cockpit extensions are adjustable for length, toe-in, and toe-out.
- The base bar is 31.8mm, allowing for angle adjustment.
- The integrated hydration system accommodates a specific bottle type and includes a bento box.
