Liteville, known for its high-quality aluminum bikes, proudly announces the launch of its latest masterpiece: the Liteville 301CL Mk1. As the first non-motorized carbon bike in the company's history, the 301CL Mk1 marks a significant step and signals a new era for Liteville.

The 301CL Mk1 is a radical new version of the legendary Liteville 301. While the design of the frame is reminiscent of the traditional Liteville exterior, the 301CL Mk1 clearly sets itself apart from its predecessors with its carbon frame weighing around 2 kg and newly integrated premium components.

The choice of carbon as a frame material brings advantages, but also challenges. It was important to Liteville to also implement the highest quality standards in a carbon frame. To this end, a partner was found who implements high-end production using the autoclave prepreg process in Portugal. In this way, the maximum advantages, such as the lighter weight and the freer shaping of the material, can be utilized while still guaranteeing a safe, durable product. The development process of over two years was characterized by many tests and optimizations in order to create the ideal ratio of weight and stability and to give the frame the right stiffness for the typical Liteville riding characteristics. Not only the layup in the frame, but also in the C30i rim was specifically adapted. In order not to hide this masterpiece, the frame is only painted with a minimal use of matt clear coat, which results in an insensitive and technical "raw" carbon look.

The deliberately selected, first-class components such as the integrated Eightpins NGS2 dropper post, the new Eagle Transmission shifting technology from SRAM and the matching, revised Level ULT 4-piston brakes promise lasting precision and reliability.

The FOX 36 Factory Fit4 fork was deliberately selected for its stiffness, which matches the frame concept, but also for its good all-round properties. It is the counterpart to the efficient and potent rear triangle with 140 mm travel. The FOX Float X Factory shock has been specially tuned. Every detail illustrates Liteville's design approach for maximum riding performance.

The modern riding position with balanced wheel load distribution makes you feel perfectly integrated into the CL. The flat steering angle and moderately long reach, in conjunction with the patented K.I.S. system, convey safety in every riding situation. This steering stabilization improves directional stability uphill and increases safety at the limit downhill, for more overall control of the bike.
