Origin
The 8avio (8avio Revolution) is Bottecchia's endurance road bike, built for granfondo distances rather than pure racing. Its UD-carbon monocoque uses a double-mould DMMT process the brand says adds strength while keeping weight low, with the frame coming in around 1120 g for a size M. A clever Multi-Performance Brakes frame design lets the same chassis be built with either traditional rim calipers or hydraulic discs, so riders can choose their setup. The endurance geometry trades a touch of aggression for stability and all-day comfort.
