The Time Scylon burst out of the brand’s European factory in 2014. It won a lot of fans, and not only because it looked beautiful, went fast and met the asphalt with a certain “Je ne sais quoi”. Scylon’s innovative Braided Carbon technology broke the mould, quite literally, and showed the broader industry that you could make a stock carbon fiber bike in a radically different way. In Time’s view, a much better way.

Sat at the top of the podium, the Time Scylon is the brand’s flagship racing platform. In its new iteration, Time tells us it delivers the “perfect balance of aerodynamics, weight, stiffness, strength, and ride quality”. To put it another way, the Scylon channels the essence of Time’s legendary craftsmanship and expertise into a sensationally quick and comfortable road silhouette.

More about the Time Scylon

These days, describing a carbon fiber road racing bike is a tough gig. Luckily, Time has made it easy. The Scylon delivers on three fronts: aero, speed and precise handling.

Time's unique approach to carbon fiber bike production often gets the headlines, but it's what the tech enables that's most interesting. Time's Braided Carbon technology gives the brand huge latitude when it comes to how it engineers its tube profiles and tunes ride feel, vibration dampening, the all-important stiffness vs comfort vs responsive matrix and more. The Scylon blends the best of Time's alternative approach and in-house manufacturing abilities, rising to the occasion with a superlative ride quality that marries the speed of a jet plane with the comfort of a 1st class seat.

Make no mistake; the Time Scylon is an unashamedly single-minded road racing bike. It benefits from complex aero calculations, feather-light weight and impeccable strength (to which its lifetime warranty attests). It carries over beloved Time innovations like the Powerbox chainstay system, which is lighter and now wider to make space for up to 32c tires. A highly adjustable seat post with a patented design that easily adjusts for both a -20mm and a +10mm offset, allowing for a massive range of fore-aft adjustability. And a redesigned fork that meets the air with a 4% reduction in drag compared to its predecessor.
