Every little worthwhile change
In an evolving species, only the most calibrated change will result in progress. What really counts is neither strength nor intelligence. What makes the difference is the ability to adapt to change.
The Filante SL inherits its forms, its lines and its racing spirit from the Filante SLR, Wilier's high-end aero racing bike used by professionals in the most important World Tour competitions. What makes the change beneficial is the application of few and simple technical solutions. The different carbon fibre lamination used for the frame gives it a less extreme and more comfortable structure compared to the SLR version. All of this with a weight gain of just under 150 g for the same size frame.

World Tour aerodynamics and design
The carbon fibre is used in a frame that mirrors the shape of the Filante SLR used by the professional cyclists of Groupama - FDJ Cycling Team. What changes is the frame module, using different fabrics made of composite material to create a new lamination. Though the substance may change, the aerodynamic performance does not.
Six frame sizes, glossy finish
The Filante SL echoes the racing geometries of its big sister, the SLR. Six available frame sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL. Five available colours with glossy finish.
Smart integration
No visible cables. The monocoque handlebar allows the allure of the Filante product range to remain unchanged.A technical choice that makes possible to contain the price without compromising the performance and the possibility to easily personalise the setup.
SL philosophy
In addition to expanding the product range, the goal of each SL series bike is to provide the best quality/price/performance ratio. The use of technologies and setups that are less extreme aims to preserve the overall quality of each product. Did we succeed? You be the judge.
