"Incredible frame! The geometry and construction updates for this frame are fantastic. Room for any road tire, and smaller gravel tires if you like. Very very comfortable for an Aero frame.

When I built the frame up, everything was perfect; BB threads great, brake holes unpainted and aligned, headset tight in the perfect way, and internal routing extremely easy. Out of the thousands of bikes I have built over the years as a mechanic, this is at the top with the best of them!

Trev is awesome to deal with in every transaction I have done with him! Thoroughly recommend!"

Every Elves frameset purchased through Trev’s Cycle Shop is backed by manufacturer warranty and handled locally. If there’s ever an issue, you deal with us — not an overseas seller.

What makes the Falath EVO+ ideal for NZ cycling?

• UCI-Approved Carbon Construction: Race-legal for competitive events across New Zealand, meeting ISO 4210-6:2023 and EN 14766 standards
• Disc Brake Compatibility: Flat mount disc brakes provide reliable stopping power in NZ's variable weather conditions
• Aerodynamic Design: Optimized tube shapes reduce drag on flat NZ roads and rolling terrain, with thinner/taller downtube and aero seat-stay
• 32c Tyre Clearance: Handles wider tyres for NZ's mixed road surfaces, offering increased grip, comfort, and reduced pinch flats
• Enhanced 2025 Geometry: 15mm longer top tube, 15mm longer wheelbase, 20mm lower standover height, T47 threaded bottom bracket
• Lightweight Performance: 1005g frame (size 46, unpainted) - 80g lighter than previous Falath Pro despite taller profile
• NZ Availability: In stock at Trev's Cycle Shop, ships nationwide with expert local support

Who should buy the Falath EVO+ frameset?

This frameset is perfect for New Zealand cyclists who compete in road races, participate in gran fondos, or demand race-level performance for training. Whether you're tackling the hills of Wellington, the flats of Canterbury, or the coastal roads of Auckland, the Falath EVO+ delivers UCI-approved speed, comfort, and reliability across NZ's diverse terrain.

The carefully engineered Toray carbon lay-up uses more T1000 carbon fibre in critical strength areas (head tube and bottom bracket), creating the stiffness and power transfer required for high-performance competitive cycling while maintaining exceptional rider comfort.

Is a Custom Build Right for You?”

A custom build makes sense if:

• You want specific gearing

• You care about weight & component selection

• You plan to keep the bike long-term

• You want better value per dollar

A complete bike may suit you better if:

• You want immediate delivery

• You don’t care about component choice

• You prefer fixed pricing
