Design:
As with all Van Nicholas models, performance is paramount but aesthetics satisfy desire. The Van Nicholas Aeolus represents long hours and late nights of extensive planning, design, and testing. Utilizing a compact frame design and Reynolds groundbreaking seamless double-butted 6/4 titanium, the Aeolus sets the benchmark for other companies to follow. The Aeolus maintains the magical ride qualities that titanium is famous for, but provides unparalleled stiffness for climbing, sprinting, and accelerating that have never before been seen in a Ti frame. A climber’s dream, the Aeolus is also a great choice for lighter riders and the weight obsessed.
