TRAKK

When is the last time your bike did a lap without you? The Stromm is designed to be the fastest when it has a rider on it: minimize the system drag of a rider on the bicycle:

• Sloping top tube and seat post design creates vortices that keep air attached to rider's back longer delaying separation and turbulence and reducing drag
• Wide, cambered, 2027+ legal fork and seat stays encourage better airflow over rider's legs
• Seat tube creates propulsive lift when in the influence of rider's legs
• Wide fork and seat stay minimize effects of wheel differences—any well-designed wheel is fast with this frame

Our frame design focuses on maximizing aerodynamic performance of the rider-frame-wheel system with minimum cost to usability.

Each airfoil shape throughout the frame is designed to a specific location's purpose for best performance. The upper seat tube shape maximizes propulsive lift at minimum drag, which propels the bike forward as the rider's legs create temporary disturbances near the seat tube. The fork and seat stays create lift at minimum drag to smooth airflow around the rider's legs. The head tube minimizes drag while stalling softly at higher yaw angles, preventing frame handling issues on outdoor tracks. Each tube works both to avoid creation of unnecessary drag, as well as to maximize the drag savings for the entire system as a whole.

The fork is super wide to prevent interference drag from the wheel. It is "wheel-agnostic" and faster than bikes with narrow forks paired with wheels like Hed 3, Corima 4 Spoke, Mavic Io, etc. In addition, it also shapes the air around the rider's legs—one of the biggest sources of drag in the entire rider-bike system.

We exclusively use Toray Composite carbon to ensure we get exactly the performance we need from each piece. Strong, resilient fibers where needed. Stiff fabric in key areas, and the resin systems to optimize the combination of materials. 

It is common in carbon fiber manufacturing to use “house blend” carbon with far less quality control and no certification process. What’s more is the resin systems are often less optimal resulting in resin-rich end products yielding inconsistent quality. You end up with less control and precision over stiffness, durability, and material optimization.

Additionally we’ve taken the extra step to develop internal molds, mandrels, and pre-formed shapes that can dictate precise shape, compression, and wall thicknesses throughout the frame and fork.

• The seat post has to be proprietary for optimized aerodynamic tube-shape, but everything else uses conventional track industry standards. Use whatever parts you love, find replacements easily, travel with confidence and generally be a happier athlete.
• 1.125 steerer, IS41 bearings for easy compatibility with any stem
• Standard 9mm x 100mm front and 10mm x 120mm rear track axles
• 68mm threaded bottom bracket
• 70T chainring compatibility
