Master Ti325 Road Bike – 3/2.5Titanium road bike
The design of Master series titanium frame emphasizes “Racing”. Therefore, stiffness and stability were the factors of concern.
Special features of Master Ti325 are:
1. Tubing: 3Al-2.5V double butted; stress release by heat treatment after shaping
2. Tapered 1 1/2”head tube: provides stiffness and cornering stability
3. Squared down tube and PF-30 BB shell: increase frame stiffness and versatility in crank axel choices
4. Asymmetrical chainstays: increases lateral stiffness in the drive side, more comfort in the non-drive side.
5. Electronic/Mechanical dual system: the frame has settings for both systems
The design in the Master series solved the problem of lack of stiffness commonly found on titanium frames. For riders with racing in mind, Master is the product worth considering.

May Snow – Tung Flower
Tung Flower (Aluerites fordii Hemsi) is associated with Hakka people in Taiwan due to its plantation for the high valued oil . It became the main character of the most romantic cultural ceremony in Taiwan after it stepped down from the economic arena.
During the blossom season in April and May, white flowers ornamented the whole mountain of green in northern Taiwan. In the trails underneath, it carpeted the ground just like snow. Therefore, tung flower was given a poetic name of “May Snow”.
In Rikulau’s May Snow graphics design, tung flowers spotted the frame just like the flowers floating in the creek and dancing along the flow.
3Al-2.5V Titanium Alloy
Titanium alloy has a very good combination of strength, corrosion resistance, durability, and…”high tech look”. Many consider it the finest high-performance bike frame material in the world.
Every titanium tube Rikulau uses is butted, shaped, precision cut, and then, heat treated to release stress to ensure a perfect frame quality.
