NOVA RIDE derailleur cage system CCD Evo S for Shimano Dura Ace 9250 / Ultegra 8150 12-speed | silver
Nova Ride is a young French company that specializes in the development and manufacture of high-quality bicycle components. Since its foundation in Clermont-Ferrand in 2016, the brand has stood for high-performance, reliable products at a fair price. Standing still is not an option for the French. In order to continuously push the limits of performance, development work, supported by modern software, is constantly being incorporated into the product range. As if that wasn't enough, the company relies on feedback from world teams and carries out extensive wind tunnel tests.
The CCD Evo derailleur cage system combines all the experience Nova Ride has gathered over the last 5 years. The new design remains true to the DNA of the brand's first derailleur cage system, but has been specifically optimized for greater stiffness and exceptional durability. The striking, recognizable design is the result of carefully considered details. Both the geometry and the material thicknesses of the 3K carbon cage and derailleur pulleys have been completely redesigned to combine a modern, harmonious appearance with maximum lightweight construction and performance. Building on the success of the CCD AERO, the front surface of the CCD EVO has been redesigned, tested in the wind tunnel and fitted with optimized screws. The result: a 66% improvement in aerodynamics compared to the previous model.
The high-quality finish is the result of a completely revised design approach in which geometries and material thicknesses have been precisely adapted. New black titanium screws are used at the rear of the cage, which not only contribute to weight reduction but also emphasize the elegant look. The black surface of the structure ensures seamless integration on the wheel, while the use of titanium guarantees the optimum weight/strength ratio.
All-ceramic dry ball bearings
The all-ceramic dry bearings are designed for maximum service life. The absence of grease and lubricants eliminates the need for time-consuming, regular maintenance. Thanks to the uniform hardness of the ceramic material used, both for the balls and the cage, friction is significantly minimized and wear is reduced. The result: noticeably higher efficiency and a considerably longer service life.
3K carbon cage
Each carbon plate made of 3K fibers was specially developed depending on the model, including an adapted material thickness. The cage structure itself was designed using topological optimization so that the material is used exactly where it is most effective under load. The shapes were then specifically reworked to achieve an ideal balance between weight, rigidity and aesthetic appeal.
Aluminum 7075 derailleur pulleys
The choice of derailleur pulleys made of 7075 alloy aluminum ensures outstanding mechanical strength and a long service life. Thanks to the excellent material properties and a precisely controlled anodization, they offer low wear and a permanently attractive appearance.
NOTE: The rear derailleur shown is for illustrative purposes only and is not included in the scope of delivery. When traveling, please remember to remove the complete rear derailleur with an Allen key, as very few bicycle transport bags offer sufficient space for the oversized rear derailleur cage.
