"EDITORIAL REVIEW

The evolution of a superbike--a term we've come to rely on to describe that variety of race bike that is so stiff, so nimble and yet so comfortable that testers find no substantial flaw--is a risky proposition. In the attempt to make a great bike even stiffer, lighter and more comfortable, manufacturers sometimes overdo it, ending up with a next generation that's a hair too punishing or compliant in a way that compromises the magical ride feel of the original. Fortunately, in evolving its stunningly good 2009 Cento Uno, Wilier didn't try to do too much. 

The 2010 Superleggera, which the Aimone Rovatti  in last year's Prestigio 2009 and will ride again this year, retains the Cento Uno's geometry and tube shapes, but Wilier strategically uses lighter carbon fiber to shave grams. The traits that contributed to the Cento Uno's precise power transfer and handling--the oversize bottom bracket, seatmast and blocky head-tube junction--are all there, as are the asymmetrical, one-piece looped stays, which Wilier says help create the smooth ride feel. While the company makes no claim that the Superleggera is stiffer, only that it's lighter and more efficient, our sub-150-pound testers found it rigid, even chattery, on rough roads or when just noodling along. We swapped the Fulcrum Racing Zero wheelset for more supple Zipp 202s, reducing the size-medium bike's weight to 13.75 pounds, and found that the Superleggera didn't just retain the original Cento Uno's electric ride feel, but may have surpassed it. Despite the ethereally light weight, which made climbing a joy and enhanced the bike's power-now demeanor in sprints, the Superleggera was never nervous. All this, and it's still comfortable enough for all-day riding. Pretty super.--Loren Mooney "
