Our friends over at Inspyre sent some exciting news about the newly updated Inspyre Concorde, we love it and we think you will too.

INSPYRE PRESS RELEASE

When we launched the ERA CF, one question came back quite often: what does this mean for the Concorde ?

The answer is simple: the Concorde was never going anywhere.

Carbon gave us the opportunity to develop a completely new platform with the ERA CF, but at the same time we continued working on the next generation of the aluminium frame that has been at the heart of INSPYRE for years.

The Concorde V4 has been developed the way we believe a race bike should be developed: on the track, with our riders, over time.

Mathis Ragot Richard spent part of the Australian winter riding the first prototypes. Zian Lemee and Théo Thouin also logged countless laps during the development process, helping us refine the details and understand exactly where we could improve the V3.

Clément Rocherieux eventually gave the prototype one of its best tests possible by taking his first Elite Men victory on it.

From those first prototypes to the final production frame, we kept making adjustments. Some are immediately visible, others are more technical, but all of them contribute to the same objective: making the Concorde more precise, more stable and more efficient when racing at full speed.

The V4 introduces a completely redesigned rear section, including forged and CNC-machined axial dropouts integrated into the tubes, a 12.5% wider dropout platform and a CNC-machined structural rear bridge.

We have also introduced internal cable routing and BB386 on Pro sizes, while continuing to refine the overall finish and details of the frame.

The goal wasn’t to completely reinvent the Concorde.

It was to take everything we liked about it and make it better.
