Inside the Craft: What Makes TIME Bicycles Stand Out in a Crowded Carbon Market

READING TIME: 3.5 Minutes

When it comes to cycling, there's no substitute for a bike that seamlessly blends innovation with craftsmanship. At TIME Bicycles, we've spent decades perfecting the art and science of bike manufacturing, and the result is a ride that not only performs at the highest level but is also built to last.

The Braided Carbon Structure: Precision in Every Weave

What truly sets TIME Bicycles apart is our use of the Braided Carbon Structure (BCS), a technology commonly found in aerospace and elite motorsports. While many bike manufacturers rely on traditional carbon fiber sheets, our approach differs. We braid carbon fibers in a way that creates a more uniform, stronger frame with optimized flex and resilience. 

Each braid is woven with precision, ensuring a consistent quality that translates into a smoother, more responsive ride. Whether you're tackling tough mountain terrain or enjoying a long road ride, the BCS technology absorbs vibrations and distributes force evenly across the frame. This means less fatigue and more power where it counts.

Resin Transfer Molding (RTM): Perfecting Every Bond

But it's not just the braiding that makes a TIME bike stand out—it's also how we ensure every fiber is bonded perfectly. That's where Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) comes into play. In this process, liquid resin is injected into a mold under pressure, ensuring the resin flows evenly throughout the carbon structure. This results in a frame with no weak spots, unlike the imperfections that can arise with traditional hand-laminated frames. 

The RTM process guarantees the same level of precision that you'd find in industries like Formula 1 and aerospace, where reliability and performance are paramount. And for you, this means that every TIME bike delivers consistent quality, ride after ride.

Crafted with Care in Europe

We take pride in where and how our bikes are made. Each TIME frame is designed, engineered, and meticulously assembled in Europe, where craftsmanship runs deep, and attention to detail is a matter of pride.

Our highly skilled engineers and artisans review every detail to ensure that each bike meets the highest quality standards. From the initial design sketches to the final assembly, every step of the process is overseen with care. When you ride a TIME bike, you're not just riding any bike—you're riding a machine crafted with passion, precision, and a commitment to excellence.

 Why Craftsmanship Matters to Your Ride

 For cyclists, especially those who have spent years perfecting their technique and appreciate the subtleties of a well-made bike, craftsmanship matters. A bike isn't just a tool; it's an extension of you. And when it's made with precision, innovation, and care, you can feel the difference on every ride.

We understand that cyclists need bikes that deliver peak performance and are designed for durability and long-term comfort. Our technology allows you to ride longer, harder, and with less wear and tear on your body. With every pedal stroke, you'll feel the benefits of a frame engineered to distribute force effectively, reduce vibrations, and stand the test of time.

What It Means to Ride TIME

Owning a TIME bike is about more than just having the latest gear. It's about owning a piece of cycling history forged in innovation and crafted with care. It's knowing that every time you ride your TIME, you're on a bike built to last, delivering a powerful and smooth ride. 

So, if you are already a TIME owner, the next time you're on your TIME bike, take a moment to appreciate the craftsmanship behind every frame, every braid of carbon fiber, and every meticulous detail. Because at TIME, we believe that great rides are built, not just ridden.
