The Alanera RS is constructed in a single piece, eliminating bonded sections, making the cockpit 6% lighter (20 grams less than the previous model in the 110×42 size) and facilitating internal cable routing. The production requires over 180 layers of carbon fiber with UD and 3K fabrics arranged in 4 main orientations (0°, 30°, 60°, and 90°) for the best stiffness-to-weight ratio. The bike assembly is simplified by an open window (13.5×8 mm) to make cable installation easier; additionally, the monocoque construction has no glue residues, which could potentially harm the cables. Alanera RS is compatible with DCR frames, electronic groupsets, and hydraulic brake cables; it supports frames with D-shaped forks and internal routing for up to 3 cables (1 mechanical and 2 hydraulic).
