Envi Advanced 1

From the stage race breakaway to the final criterium lap, the EnviLiv is made to be out front. Weve designed our signature sprinter for optimized aerodynamic performance, greater stiffness-to-weight advantage, and maximum trophies.

Optimized Aerodynamics

In our pursuit of maximum power and efficiency, we analyze how the bike and rider experience airflow at every speed and direction, both on the computer and in the wind tunnel. The new EnviLiv features truncated ellipse airfoil tube shapes and the Liv Contact SL handlebar, with flattened tops and deeper drops, for reduced drag and added control, and better overall aero performance.

Sprinting Efficiency

Aerodynamics are affected by many factors, two of them often seen as mutually exclusive: stiffness and weight. But the EnviLiv has found the sweet spot, with a new Advanced-grade composite frame and fork resulting in 292 grams of weight savings over the previous generation.

Seamless Integration

When every second matters, so does every detail. So we developed a way to route cables through the handlebar, stem, and frame, which improves aero performance, and also makes it easier to disassemble your bike for travel and maintenance. Two aerodynamic water bottle cages flawlessly integrate with the seat tube and down tube, further reducing drag.

Technologies

Advanced Composite Technology

Livs High-Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this frameset in our own composite factory. Using state-of-the-art materials and manufacturing techniques, Livs Advanced-Grade Composite frames are designed to offer light weight and stiffness with optimal compliance.

AeroSystem Shaping Technology

Tubing shapes engineered using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind-tunnel data to optimize each tube shape for superior aerodynamic performance.

OverDrive Aero

Found inside the head tube of the all-new EnviLiv range, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easier to service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.

Vector Seatpost

This full-composite, lightweight and highly aerodynamic seatpost is engineered specifically for performance road riding.

Tubeless System

Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing technology, this tubeless ready composite WheelSystem delivers superior efficiency, pinpoint control and comfort.

PowerCore

A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter wide bottom-bracket design (92-millimeterwide for off-road bikes). Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.
