VENI. VIDI. BINI.
GREEN LITENING

There's nothing quite like this frame, because there's no rider quite like Biniam Girmay. The stunning paint effect begins by adding a crystalline base to the C:68X® carbon tubes, over which a translucent green is added. We call it Crystal Effect, because different angles of light create the impression of an almost three-dimensional surface, reflecting a variety of green hues and depths back to the viewer. Finished with white details to mirror the design of the Tour de France green jersey, it's both distinctive and eye-catching. As with all our Litening AIR C:68X frames, this one is the result of painstaking research and development. But the Green Litening has a special pedigree, and that's what makes it so fast.

Biniam Girmay grew up watching the Tour de France with his family in Eritrea and this Litening AIR C:68X Limited Edition frameset is an homage to his dedication and performance in the 2024 Tour. To describe the unique paint finish – created just for this frame – as "green" would be a huge understatement. Sure, it's green – in honour of Biniam's green jersey. But it's so much more than that. It's created around a crystalline base, which is then coated in an additional layer of translucent green. As light plays on the surface it's reflected back to the viewer from a multitude of angles, giving an impression of depth and a whole spectrum of different greens. In effect, it's Green Litening: the new definition of speed.
