KOKOKOKO

TO SOARAND FLY

Air resistance is the single most critical factor thatseparates a fast bike from a bike that cuts throughthe air like a bird. KOKO means “to soar, fly” inMaori and as the name suggests, our Top Tier Aero
Road model will have you smiling from ear to ear
from the sheer thrill of unadulterated speed.
Taking the RERE’s Aero credentials to the nextlevel, the KOKO now has Kamm-Tail incorporated
into the downtube, increasing the overall
stiffness of the bottom bracket and headtube by
13.35% and 35.64% respectively. Married to our
aerodynamically optimised and ergonomic MANA
bar, the combination makes for a super sleek highperformance racing machine.

The KOKO also comes with adjustable compliance
via a dual position seatclamp configuration thatcan be switched from stiff to buttery smoothdepending on the rider’s personal needs and/or
road conditions.
Further engineering gains via the use of Latex
Mandrels for the front triangle and T47 BB createsa super rigid platform for transferring every watt
you produce into forward motion. Other small
yet well-considered details such as the Quick-Fit
headset spacers, up to 32mm of tire clearance,
vibration dampening Seatstays and Seatpost
makes for a package that ticks all the right boxes.

The fork crown blends with the headtube contributing

When used with our MANA Bar the full aerodynamic

Each KOKO frame’s front
triangle is moulded using
a one-piece Latex Mandrel.
The use of a Latex Mandrel for each size
ensures that the pre-preg carbon wall thickness
and resin flow is carefully controlled during
production.

The use of High-Tensile Directional Toray
Carbon in bottom bracket and headtube
increases front triangle torsional stiffness. The
combination of both these processes improves
the frames overall performance.

FULLYINTEGRATEDIn the never ending pursuit for drag reduction and acleaner aesthetic, all the cables and hoses in the KOKO
are hidden from the wind and sight.
The MANA one-piece cockpit has been conceptualised
as an integral part of the frame and fork, creating acomplete system that works seamlessly together.

ADJUSTABLECOMPLIANCE
The KOKO’s adjustable compliance allows riders to tweak
the ride quality to suit their personal needs. Often simple
ideas have the biggest impact on complex engineering
problems. By installing the seatclamp in the lower position,
the increased cantilever action of the seatpost will increase
the compliance by up to 8.5% allowing the KOKO to glide
over rough road surfaces and keeping you fresh when you
decide to go solo.

The KOKO is designed to have 2 levels ofcompliance.

Normal Position: With the seatclamp inposition 1 (facing up), the compliance isset to Normal. In this position the KOKO
will still glide over any road chatter withease providing you with the confidence
to go full gas.
Increased Compliance: With theseatclamp in position 2 (facing down),
the comfort level is set to OptimizedCompliance. In this position the KOKO
will be able to handle even unsealed
rough roads without missing a beat.

AERODYNAMICS
Air! The one invisible element in cycling that you’reconstantly fighting to punch a hole through. The
KOKO uses a number of aerodynamic features tomake sure you don’t waste an ounce of energy
slicing through the air.
The downtube has been shaped to ensure air flowing
over the front wheel onto the downtube is carefully
managed to reduce drag. The Kamm-Tail section
adds stiffness in the fuselage connecting the key
areas of the headtube and bottom bracket, to deliver
great handling and power transfer.
The Kamm-Tail section seattube is wrapped aroundrear wheel allowing up to 32mm of tire clearance,
yet tight enough to not disturb airflow across theseattube and rear wheel.

KAMM-TAILFirst developed for the Automobile Industry byWunibald Kamm in the 1930s, Kamm-Tail is aphenomenon where an Airfoil’s tail is truncated at asharp angle whereby the air continues to flow as if theAirfoil is still whole.
A pure Airfoil profile is long and narrow, not structurally
efficient at resisting the lateral forces applied to abicycle frame via the handlebars and pedalling action.
The truncated Kamm-Tail profile offers the best of bothworlds. An Aerodynamically efficient section that also
provides stiffness needed to deliver great performance.

Further elevating our appreciation for the ridequality, between the room for 32mm tires and theoutstanding compliance in the saddle, this race
bike performed as an excellent all-day bike.

The KOKO has been designed to be consistent withother Chapter2 frames – if you ride a Medium RERE
you will be a medium KOKO for example. The subtly
lower stack dimension compared to the TOA will
ensure that you can get into a more efficient aeroposition. The 73mm BB drop also ensures that yourcentre of gravity is low to the ground improving bothcontrol and balance at speed.
