Since 1986, Litespeed bikes have been raising the bar on the technology of bike manufacturing. An extension of a machine shop whose specialty has been in the use of exotic materials, these bikes were the first titanium frame bikes. The family-owned business made titanium bikes that had a better weight-to-stiffness balance, giving a better ride that others just could not compete with back when they came on the scene. With the conclusion of the Cold War making titanium less of a scarce commodity, bike manufacturers came to the realization that this material would give their customers a competitive edge. This new design drew the best-in-class bike riders.
Their focus on using technology gave that same edge to Litespeed, not only in the shop, but out on the racing circuit. Back in 1999 it was a Litespeed bike that Lance Armstrong rode across the finish line with the best time at his trials for the Tour de France. There are three base technologies that Litespeed uses to create the superior performance it is known for. Aerologic came about after a considerable amount of time researching and experimenting with the aerodynamics of the frames. They were looking for ways to increase the aerodynamics without increasing the bike's weight along with it. Other materials were introduced into their design concepts, especially carbon fiber, resulting in their own Reactive Pressure Molding technology. RPM is responsible for their composite frame models. Titanium frames continue to be the best on the market from Litespeed. Example models that reflect these technologies can be found in the T1, T2 and T3 series of frames.
