Curve - Belgie DISC

Where It All Started

The Belgie is affectionately named after Melbourne's infamous "Belgie Ride,” a short, sharp, mixed terrain shop ride that often resembles a CX race rather than a road ride.

In 2015, the Belgie was introduced to the world when Jesse Carlsson raced across the US, winning the 6,800 km Trans Am Bike Race by over 500 km.

Since then, the Belgie has won crits, raced nationals, and is the bike chosen by legendary Belgian Kristof Allegaert, arguably one of the world's fastest endurance cyclists.

The Belgie DISC is a combined version of the original Belgie and our Belgie Air based on feedback and real-life testing.

• Compared to it's Predecessor, What's Different?

  We've straightened out the seat stays and removed the old ‘brake bridge’ for a new sleeker and lighter rear triangle. This means better tyre clearance, up to 33 mm. Upfront, the tapered head tube is taken straight from our Belgie AIR and utilises an integrated headset for some gram shedding and a sleeker finish.

• A Size for Everyone

  Are you an ‘extra medium’ or in-between size? Check out our sizing and geometry chart below and see that we've introduced more sizes to ensure your Belgie is the perfect fit.

• Mechanical versus Electric

  Thanks to some improvements in engineering, the Belgie frame is now compatible with both electronic and mechanical gear systems. So you can now have your pick of eTap, Di2, or standard mechanical options.

• Travel in Comfort

  At the core of each frame is a 3AL - 2.5V Grade 9 Aerospace grade titanium tube-set. This grade is optimal for bicycle frames and chosen for its stiffness, compliance, and durability balance. Titanium absorbs road noise without compromising on performance. There’s no buzzy feedback; it’s smooth as silk and very compliant so that you can spend more time on the bike.

• Want to Carry More?

  With a wide range of frame and fork mounted rack systems on the market, and with more appearing every week, it is important to understand which rack systems are compatible with your Curve frame and fork, and how to mount them correctly in order to ensure safe riding, avoid damage and voiding your warranty. Before mounting a rack, we strongly recommend you get in touch with us to confirm compatibility and the correct mounting procedure. This will minimise the risk of injury, product damage and voiding your warranty. Your local Curve dealer, or the team at Curve HQ, can also help you select a rack system and mount it to your bike for you.

   

All bikes purchased from iRIDE will have been pre-assembled by our mechanics and test ridden. You will also receive a multi point checklist of all the safety checks and bike build elements we work through to ensure you bike is correctly assembled, and then tested so that it runs as it should. Bikes being sent to a customer who is unable to collect it from iRIDE, will have it boxed, wheels, saddle and bars generally off and re-packaged.

The delivery of bikes will be organized once a freight fee can be determined based on weight and delivery location.

Assembly should take no longer than 10-20 minutes. It is recommended that a skilled mechanic assemble, or check the bike. If possible your local bike shop is likely best placed to do this from a safety perspective to ensure all is as it should be. If a rider is having any issues we can hook up an online video chat, or talk over the phone. If this service is required email us at workshop@iride.net.nz to organise a time that suits all parties.
