KTM Revelator Prestige

Austria's KTM unveiled an all-new version of its race-ready Revelator frameset. French team Marseille 13 is racing the current Revelator for 2015, but they're expected to switch to the new chassis shortly.
The new frame features Shimano's new direct-mount standard for fork and the rear brake. The rear brake caliper is now tucked under the chainstays behind the bottom bracket. The loss of a brake bridge allowed KTM's designers to re-profile the seatstays to induce a little comfort-giving flex. The company also switched to a manufacturing process that allows them to make the stays in single piece, optimizing the carbon layup to allow more flex. That combined with the completely-new seatpost clamp, which is integrated into the frame, just forward of the seat tube, leaves plenty of room for the 27.2mm carbon seatpost to flex, providing further comfort enhancement.
