Every little beneficial change
In the evolution of a species, every variation, only if well calibrated, will produce progress. What really matters is not strength or intelligence. What makes the difference is the ability to adapt to change.
Filante SL inherits shapes, lines and racing spirit from the Filante SLR, the high-end Wilier aero racing bike used by professionals in the most important World Tour competitions. What makes the change advantageous is the application of a few simple technical solutions. The different lamination of the carbon fiber of the frame makes the structure less extreme and more comfortable than the SLR version. All with a weight gain, for the same size, of less than 150 g.
The new Filante SL follows some features of the Wilier 0 SL starting from the handlebar set. Behind every decision that led to the birth of this model there is not a step backwards but rather the desire to look forward, scaling proprietary technologies with criterion and determination to meet an even wider audience.

World Tour aerodynamics and design
Carbon fiber describes a frame that follows the lines of the Filante SLR used by the Astana Qazaqstan Team professionals. What changes is the module of the frame through the use of different composite material fabrics that describe a new lamination. The substance changes, but not the aerodynamic performance.
Six frame sizes, glossy finish
Filante SL relaunches the racing geometries of its bigger sister SLR. Six frame sizes available: XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL. Three colors available in glossy finish
Intelligent integration
No visible cables. Stem and aero handlebar bend in aluminum alloy allow the charm of the Filante product range to remain unchanged. A technical choice that allows you to keep the price down without sacrificing performance and the possibility of easily customizing the setup.
SL Philosophy
In addition to expanding the product range, each of our SL series bicycles intends to offer the best quality/price/performance ratio. The application of less extreme technologies and setups intends to maintain the overall quality of each product. Did we succeed? Judge for yourself…
