Pro Bike: Irina Kalentieva's Rotwild Team R.R2

The FRM crankset comes with a special 27 tooth middle ring which allows a duo setup

  • Irina Kalentieva's Rotwild Team R.R2
  • Continental produce a number of special project tyres only available to the teams
  • The DT Swiss XR330 hoops are full carbon and a centrepiece of the bike
  • The carbon shadow XTR rear mech completes a stealth setup
  • Irina's website is a mix of innovative design and great functionality – just like her bike
  • The FRM crankset comes with a special 27 tooth middle ring which allows a duo setup
  • A Thomson Masterpiece seatpin is the only way to save weight without compromising a classic
  • Some of Irina's online design creeps onto the bike
  • From here you can see the smooth lines and subtle curves of the Rotwild
  • While the shapes are simple the results speak for themselves – 2007 World Champion
  • Downtube cable routing makes the bike easy to carry at often muddy Euro races
  • The DT 190 hubs are not only a lighter version of the 240s but also hold ceramic bearings
  • A seriously light combination makes this front wheel only 554 grams
  • Irina's centrelock rotors save more weight
  • The Magura fork is a good starting point, but expect a lighter prototype before the Olympics
  • Just so you know
  • Wolfie the team mechanic gave us the lowdown on what makes this bike worthy of the number one plate
