Wilier presents USMA SLR: Super light hardtail

USMA SLR is the new competition hardtail MTB that supports the URTA SLR in the high-end Wilier Triestina offroad proposals.

Wilier Triestine USMA SLR
Perfect trail mountain bike ready to tackle any trail in nature.

Light, modern, simple, easy to manage both in terms of mechanical assistance and suspension settings: the Wilier Triestina USMA SLR was created to give a precise answer to riders who are clamoring for an off-road product for racing.

Lightness is one of the two key characteristics around which the project was developed. We know how much effort goes uphill and how super-light materials help in competitions and, in general, save watts. The frame of the USMA SLR weighs only 850 grams, a very interesting platform that will allow you to set up super bikes.

The rear stay, to make the bike agile and responsive, is very short, only 425 mm of wheelbase but with a wheel passage that still allows the use of tires up to 60 mm (2.4 ”).
The Wilier Triestina USMA SLR has modern and advanced geometries, designed on a fork with 100 mm of travel.

As standard, all models are equipped with a Fox 32 Step Cast fork with 100 mm travel
Regarding the angles we have a 75 ° seat tube, which allows the rider to assume a correct position to always be in thrust.

Moving to the front, the steering is 67,75 °. This value, combined with the reach of 430 mm (for size M) and an increased BB drop allow those who will ride the USMA SLR to be centered on the bike, with a low center of gravity.

A configuration that downhill can make a difference because the rider can rely on greater stability and a feeling of safety, necessary conditions for speeding when the path slopes downwards.
Below are the complete geometries:

CARBON HUS-MOD
The material used for the Wilier Triestina USMA SLR is the same that is found in the top-of-the-range road products, HUS-MOD carbon, a mix of very high quality fibers to which meshes with very high resistance multidirectional fibers are added.

MONOCOQUE INTEGRATED HANDLEBAR
As with its twin-suspension sister URTA SLR, the USMA can be equipped with an integrated carbon monocoque handlebar.

PRICES

The Wilier USMA starts from € 5100 up to € 9700 at the top of the range, below all the details:
