Time Alpe d'Huez 01 Aktiv Rim Frame "T" Logo

Time Bicycles is well known around the world for having some of the most comfortable and performative rides available. The Alpe d'Huez 01 Aktiv Rim Brake Frameset is a testament to Time Bicycles’ ceaseless commitment to quality and performance, showcasing their dedication to engineering excellence and rider satisfaction.

Named after the infamous French Alpe d’Huez road climb, this bike excels in handling grueling climbs in big mountains with ease. The Alpe d’Huez 01 stands out as Time’s lightest frame, ensuring that every ascent feels effortless and efficient. Its construction, combining weight savings with refined compliance, provides exceptional comfort for daylong rides, a quality enhanced significantly by the inclusion of the TIME Aktiv Fork.

A large part of the Alpe d’Huez’s phenomenal ride quality is due to the TIME Aktiv Fork. Time developed the Aktiv fork with the intention of reducing road vibrations by 30% compared to a standard carbon fork. This is achieved through a special braiding technique where carefully chosen Vectran fibers are woven into a unique shape that effectively dampens vibrations before they reverberate up to the rider’s hands. This innovation results in a smoother ride, minimizing rider fatigue and enhancing overall comfort.

The frame itself was constructed in Time’s European factory using a Resin Transfer Molding technique, which contributes to its anti-fatiguing longevity that a less meticulously crafted frame simply can’t match. The attention to detail in the manufacturing process ensures the Alpe d’Huez 01 remains durable and reliable over time. Complementing this, Time’s lifetime warranty underscores their confidence in the Alpe d’Huez 01, providing riders with peace of mind and a commitment to long-term performance and satisfaction. This combination of cutting-edge technology, exceptional craftsmanship, and unwavering support makes the Alpe d'Huez 01 Aktiv Rim Brake Frameset a standout choice for discerning cyclists.
