Litespeed

Blade

Only Litespeed could create the world's fastest and most desired time trial frame and remain unsatisfied. That's why for 2004 we have refined every last detail of the Blade and then some. We have added a new lighter weight top tube and seat tube while maintaining the sleek and aerodynamic properties that have defined this bike for the last ten years. New aero chainstays are now matched to the double-diamond shaped seatstays further reducing wind drag. The Blade's race-proven design is poised to once again slice through the competition with more power, more speed, and even more intimidation.

Advantages	Features
Superior aerodynamics	Massive 6A/4V titanium aero-shaped down tube, double-bladed and curved seatstays, and sculpted, teardrop-shaped seat tube plus new aero-internal cable routing.
Increased aerodynamic advantage	Rear entry dropouts with micro-adjusters allow rear wheel to be precisely positioned behind the seat tube (700c only)
Confidence-inspiring front-end stability	New cold-worked 3Al/2.5V shaped top tube and integrated head tube
Increased power transfer	New more aggressive teardrop-shaped chainstays

Superior aerodynamics and speed are easily attained with micro-adjustable rear entry dropouts (700c only). The beautifully machined horizontal dropouts allow the rider to tuck the rear wheel in closer than ever to the seat tube, reducing wind drag significantly.
