The Stinger is the fullest manifestation of Ceepo’s design forward legacy. It is a premiere racing platform, meticulously engineered for the explicit goal of racing fast.
The Stinger combines aerodynamic experimentation and innovation with the road bike tradition, delivering a performance oriented aero road racing platform like few others. It is an unabashedly aero road performance superbike that delivers surgical precision at speed. This is not your all day bike, unless you plan to ride your bike all day fast. Very. Fast.
The Stinger provides advanced aerodynamics resulting in a streamlined, well-mannered experience that merges classic road bike ride quality with a fully integrated aerodynamic design.
“On the rivet” Ceepo’s approach to designing the Stinger’s geometry inherits characteristics from years of designing triathlon bikes. This experience enables Ceepo to combine aggressive “on the rivet” position-ing while delivering balanced and reliable handling. To realize this, Ceepo combines dramatic aerodynamic features, such as truncated airfoil tube shapes, with road neutral geometry to offer a stable, compliant, stiff and well mannered, yet incredibly aggressive racing platform capable of bringing all these features into graceful harmony when at speed.
In order to create the Stinger’s aggressive position that handles well at speed, Ceepo shifted the trail window from 40-60 mm to 50-70mm and lowered the bottom bracket 5mm. The devil is in the details, and these minute details make for significant performance gains.
The overall effect is a bike that excels at speed, disappears underneath the rider, requires very little input to manage and frees up the rider to place exertion where it counts: speed and power.
All of these refinements translate to performance gains in a sleek and aerodynamically refined package. When you are on the rivet, the Stinger delivers by amplifying every watt into efficient forward motion. Simply put, the new Stinger is faster on the flats, lighter on the climbs and sharper on descents.
Everything you expect from a modern carbon aero road bike, only faster.
