To celebrate its 110th anniversary, Italian brand Wilier has released a new and very limited edition bike: the Zero.6. Only 200 bikes are available, and it even comes with a matching limited edition pen.
With an appropriately grandiose flourish, Wilier states that this bike is "110 years in the making". It will be available with Campagnolo, Shimano or SRAM transmissions.

A claimed 15% weight saving
Wilier claims the Zero.6 frame weighs in at under 680g. This would shave nearly 15% off the frame weight of the previous incarnation of this bike, the Zero.7 – no mean feat.
"It is not difficult to eliminate 100 grams from a standard frame. We have done it many times over the years," says a statement on Wilier's website. "But if we have to take 100 grams off a frame that weighs less than 800 grams, the going gets tough, if not impossible."
