Raleigh are launching a new TT bike, full details of which will be released next week. We’ve got hold of a few pics but have very little in the way of information.

That must be a carbon-fibre frame with a threaded bottom bracket, by the look of things, a tapered head tube and a frame-specific seatpost. That’s a Fizik Arione saddle on there although we have no idea whether the bike will be sold as a complete package.

The deep-bladed fork houses linear-pull brakes with the cable heading in through the crown/top of the fork leg. We’ve seen similar designs on a few different forks recently.

The rear brake is hidden away underneath the bottom bracket.

As is almost universally the case these days, the seat tube is sculpted to manage airflow over the leading edge of the rear wheel, and it looks like Raleigh have kept the rear triangle very small. That’s usually done to reduce the frontal area of the seatstays.

Those are Vision Trimax Carbon bars on the front there with SRAM’s very neat bar-end shifters.

The wheels are Cole’s C85 Lite carbon clinchers. The 85 refers to the rim depth, in millimetres.

We’re off to see Raleigh next week so we’ll hopefully have more details on road.cc shortly.
