Bianchi 928 SL IASP for Team Ceramica Flaminia

For the 2010 season Team Ceramica Flaminia will be riding a new version of the 928 SL that belongs to the HoC (Hors Category) model range. The new frame, the 928 SL IASP, is a monocoque carbon frame with integrated areo seatpost.

"In Bianchi we are very proud to supply the 928 SL IASP model to Team Ceramica Flaminia for 2010 season", Product Manager Lars Svalin stated. "928 SL IASP is the flagship of the Bianchi range and we are confident that it will help the Team to reach victories on the highest level. We have worked closely with the Team and suppliers to find the optimal bike and the feedback from the riders about the performance and handling of the 928 SL IASP has been incredibly positive".

The main feature of the 928 SL IASP is the integrated seat post which improves the frame rigidity and reactivity. A technology called WMP (Wrinkles Molding Process) optimises the molding process during the construction and reduces the weight of the frame to 1,080 kg(size unspecified). The 928 SL IASP has a full carbon fork (315g) with internal structural reinforcement TSR (Technology Section Reinforce).
