For the last several years, we've proudly sponsored a developmental women's cycling team. Fast Woman is designed for them, based on their miles of experience as elite and top amateur racers. Typically, racers or riders who like to ride hard and fast prefer a longer cockpit and a bike that transfers all of their energy into speed. Consequently, Fast Woman has a longer top tube than our other road bikes. It also has shorter chain stays for an efficient frame. Because it's made of steel, the ride is comfortable even after hours in the saddle. You'll always look forward to the next day's ride.
We use Columbus Ultrafoco® triple-butted steel tubing which is very light but also very strong and reliable. A Dura-Ace® equipped Fast Woman weighs about 18 pounds, depending on the frame size.
Steel is only as good as the builder, so Fast Woman is built for us in a small custom frame shop in Japan. This shop is so particular that is has rejected some other well-known steel brands because their tubing isn't as easy to work with as Columbus.
Fast Woman can be purchased as either a frame and fork or as complete bike equipped with any component group you choose. Yeah, we can even drum up the pink rims, handlebar tape and saddle so you'll look just like one of our team!
