CHAPTER2 - TOA - KOURA (WHITE + GOLD)

ABOUT THE FRAME 

After two and a half years in development, with every detail carefully considered and meticulously executed, the Toa is the culmination of all the Chapter2 frames that have come before it. Toa, which means “to be victorious, to win” in te reo Maori, delivers an all-out, no-compromise carbon fibre race-ready frame platform. It has been designed, engineered and manufactured to the most exacting standards.

Inspired by the Tere’s Performance All-Road DNA and the Ao's versatility, the Toa has all its cables/hoses tucked away from sight and the wind, creating an aerodynamically seamless transition between the Mana Bar (available as an optional extra) and the Toa's Kamm-Tail chassis.

Sporting a T47 Bottom Bracket for easy maintenance, the aluminium BB Shell works in unison with the high-tensile carbon carefully laid into the BB area to increase stiffness by up to 8% over the Tere. Additionally, the use of a Latex mandrel for the whole front triangle has increased the Headtube stiffness by 34% over the Tere for that out of the saddle and power to the pedals moment.

Other enhancements, such as up to 32mm of tire clearance, and vibration dampening seatstays and seatpost make for a package that ticks all the right boxes.
