We already know the lightweight Seta frame from the dimensional frame test in TOUR 1/2015. However, the model is also available with standard geometry. The frame is top in all important laboratory values; the riding stability is easily sufficient even for heavy riders. The only small weakness is the below-average comfort value on the saddle, which is mainly due to the stiff carbon seatpost from Deda. Campa's mechanical Super Record groupset has made a significant leap forward since the latest model update in 2014, especially in terms of shifting behaviour at the front. The brakes in combination
with the fast Bora carbon wheels are among the best on the market.
CONCLUSION Technically very good carbon frame, customisation possible, made in Italy. Expensive
