With modern XC race tracks cranking up the dials on descents and features, there is no margin for error when it comes to controlling your bike — and the need for efficient power transfer is even greater. Your position must be dialled, and the need for absolute precision is paramount. The Roval Control SL family delivers the highest levels of performance-backed geometry, insane weight-savings, and above all, the control, only available from the stiffest materials on the market.
The Roval Control SL Cockpit answers the call for the racer who needs full integration for full-gas efforts. An engineering masterpiece designed to master the full-throttle XC world. Built with high-modulus carbon fiber, and race-proven geometry, there is no greater combination of light weight, stiffness, and control on the World Cup today.
Finding your rhythm can make or break your race. Our ultra-light Control SL seatpost puts you in an ideal position for high-output efforts. Thanks to the 2-bolt system, it’s easily adjustable down to the millimetre, letting you dial in your perfect attack position.
Born on the World Cup, destined for your local trails. While it might be surprising to see an alloy wheel sitting alongside this ‘who’s who’ of top-tier carbon components, we have one response: ride them and see.
We poured World Championship-winning engineering into developing an all-new alloy for these Control wheels. To increase the new material’s durability, we customised our shot peening process—where metal projectiles are shot at alloy to increase strength—meeting the precise demands of our XC riders. If that wasn’t enough, to eliminate creaking and reduce weight, an individually customised sleeves are chosen to bond every single rim.
The result is a wildly over-engineered, trail-ripping, best-of-the-best, aluminium wheel; held to the same standards as our highest-end Control SL carbon components
