The DUELL PASSION is a model based on a fully customised frame characterised by a combination of excellent stiffness, comfort and price. The PASSION is a very stable and reliable frame for superior climbing and descending, a true mileage eater. The Duell Passion is perfect for handling in city centre criteriums or climbing in the Alps.

The DUELL PASSION is built with Italian Dedacciai SAT 14.5 tubes, triple butted with varying wall thickness. The alloy has been enriched with Chromium, Molybdenum, Vanadium and Manganese. The tubes of the Passion frame have a tensile strength of 1450 N/mm². The Passion is a slim-lined racing frame which tubes superbly combine a classic appearance with a more than excellent stiffness and riding qualities.
•    The special oval-formed down tube with changing wall thickness provides a high torsion stiffness. The form of the tube joins the neighbouring tube by TIG welding. This method makes the most of the form of the tube and all its characteristic features are used to apply as little material as possible. As a result the weight of the passion frame is kept as low as possible.
The head tube with integrated 11/8 inch head tube bearing is oversized to keep the torsion stiffness at a maximum. This integration has been applied with the specially selected Dedacciai full carbon head tube fork. This fork does not only create a visual unity with the frame but it also provides the perfect harmony between stiffness, control and comfort. We are also able to supply customers with a standard version of the Passion with a Chris King head tube bearing and Easton EC 90 fork.
•    The 35 mm oversized seat tube provides not only the harmonious appearance of this frame but also a very high bracket stiffness. Together with the oversized chain stays, which are rectangular sculpted near the bracket, this tube provides a very stable and direct power transmission.
•    The horizontal and vertical stays have a smaller diameter and are sculpted in a more cylindrical form towards the rear toads. This allows a more vertical movement which makes it easier to follow and absorb the bumpiness of the road, resulting in a direct but comfortable performance.
•    By routing the cables along the bottom side of the top tube, over the head tube and under the horizontal rear fork a clean-lined appearance is created. The attachment points for the bottle cage holders are welded with special sheets to create the correct power distribution in the thin tubes and to prevent weak spots in the frame.
