ZEN TRI
The ZEN TRI is a serious race machine for those who are interested in getting
the most out of their multisport life. The ZEN TRI has been specifically developed
as a result of input from our Professional athletes and by retired Pro Triathlete/Duathlete
Brent Ruegamer himself. The concept of design in the ZEN TRI uses small cross section
semi-aero tubing to help keep the bike from catching too much cross wind and acting
like a sail, while giving you the aerodynamics and triathlon positioning you need
to do your best. This translates into less energy you have to use in order to keep
the bike going in a straight line and more confidence to stay in the aero position
longer, even on windy days. This design has been tested out on the Ironman Arizona
and Ironman Hawaii courses with great effect.
Each and every ZEN TRI is a one of a kind handcrafted work of art that is custom
made as the rider wishes. With Ruegamer we give the rider many more options than
any other "custom builder" out there. Here at Ruegamer we like to start
out with the riders themselves; we take your size, shape, weight and intended use
all into account when we build your frame. This way we are able to custom tune
the frame to perfectly fit your needs.
Of course every ZEN TRI we build ha full custom
geometry built to the rider. Like sloping top tubes, great! Like a more
traditional horizontal top tube, cool, it's yours! Want an extended
seat tube all the way up to the saddle? Done!
We like to let the rider choose
the look of the carbon; do you like unidirectional
material, plain weave or twill weave? Do you like a smaller weave like 3k or do
you like a bigger weave like 12k. The choice is yours! Do you like the look of
internal routed cables or are external cables your deal? You got it, it's your
bike, you choose!
Well, now that you kind of have an overall idea of how your bike is going to look
you get to the single hardest thing with building a custom bike, deciding on the
paint job! We give you the option of a couple of eye-catching schemes to help this
along. You get to choose any two-color stock schemes.
If you want something truly custom of your own design we are very glad to accommodate
your ideas and will work with you to create that very
special custom look you are dreaming of. You can even have us color match your
special favorite flavor of color!
More options you say? In addition with the basic frame options you are also given
the choice from two diameters of an integrated bottom bracket shell that will suit
your choice of cranks as well as the standard English or Italian threaded shell.
Have a special seat post that you want to have fit your new ride? The option of
a 27.2 or 31.6 seat post size, or fully custom seat tube size is up to you! No
one on the planet gives you these kinds of choices!
This bike has been designed with one thing in mind, GO!
