We at Silverback believe that pure facts speak for

themselves. Since our beginnings in 2004 we have

always striven to pursue cycling innovations that defy

conventions and deliver the best products at the right

price.

Above is our logo which is our symbol of quality &

design excellence. We believe in innovation and

fostering a culture of forward thinking, exemplified

by designing faster, better, lighter bicycles. Our logo’s

circular and arrow design encapsulates all of

the above, something we like refer to as “The Science

of Motion”.

the science of motion global recognition

Our global leadership and design team have a

combined 45 years of industry experience, that was

demonstrated by winning a prestigious Eurobike

Award for our groundbreaking road bike design; the

Scalera Pro. Silverback worldwide owns subsidiary

operations in Europe, USA and Africa.

Silverback was also the first company in the world to

offer a USB port on a bicycle – our city commuter, the

Starke. The Starke has gone on to be included in Zahid

Sardar’s Laurence King publication, “100 Best Bikes”.

We have achieved this by essentially thinking differently

about bikes, by applying lateral solutions to the process of

designing and producing bicycles.

All our bikes are designed using Solidworks 3D CAD software,

allowing for detailed analysis, testing and frame development.

We focus on detail and constantly invest time, software and

expertise in the development and design of custom frames

and proprietary moulds. All Silverback frames and complete

bicycles pass EN international standards.

Other exclusive engineering innovations include our dual

suspension system – “IDS REVO”. This dual suspension system

enhances stiffness and reduces pedal bobbing notably more

than most competitor designs.

In addition, Silverback has made the biggest investment in the

275 (650b) platforms, worldwide, with its 2013 collection.

research & development

Other programmes include our SBC (Silverback Concepts)

designs, including a unique thru-axle system and a dual

density grip design.

Our ARD (Advanced Riding Dynamics) equation

holds our core values in delivering a ride that has the

best qualities for the given platform of bike at the

given price.

Correctly designed parts help to make the bike perform

admirably at its chosen task, and our attention to detail

shows in the end result. Frame, fork and wheels are designed

as the key items to enhance the ride quality, and without any

compromises. Many of these features result in “Best in Class

Metrics” (BIC).

ARD

And the future? Our website stats bear testimony to

Silverback’s truly global footprint, including visits from 100

countries and over 900 cities which continue to grow and

inspire bicycle riders from all over the globe. Join us on our

quest for riding innovation!

the future

However, our investment would be incomplete without the

valued input and feedback of our “Mission Speed” teams of

sponsored global athletes, including tri-athlete Ruben Guerra,

the Kroning race team, Kargo race team and many more.

SINGLE DENSITY SBC GRIPS

This smooth and soft custom grip has been design to be easy on the hands when no gloves are worn. The fine pattern provides comfortable grip in all conditions and the medium thickness fits most hands, leaving one with great feedback from the bike. A perfect entry level grip to suit most riders

DUAL DENSITY SBC GRIPS

A custom grip using a hard inner density for great stability on the bar with a super soft outer density for grip and comfort in all conditions. The heavily textured pattern provides supreme grip and together with a centred focus of material that provides a stable core for the palm, the grip provides maximum control and feedback of the bike

SINGLE DENSITY LOCK-ON SBC GRIPS

This light and sturdy Lock-on grip has uniquely tapered sides that centre the hand on the grip and provide great feedback on placement of hand at all times, perfect for hard XC or marathon racing. The soft density with a fine and deep pattern is very grippy and suited to gloved hands during long rides. This grip is featured on our high end XC platform bikes

SBC SCALERA SLEEVE

Matching our Scalera custom seatpost is a rubber sleeve designed to help seal the seatpost insert area from water and dirt. The sleek design matches our Scalera styling and shows our attention to detail in integrated design

SBC REAR THRU AXLE DESIGN

Our rear SBC thru axle provides a stiff and secure fastening of the rear wheel in the dropouts. The custom design integrates a threaded hanger that can be easily replaced should the hanger be bent or thread is stripped. The frame supports the 142 x 12mm axle system and enhances rear wheel tracking in rough trail conditions for added rider control and precise cornering. Post mount disc tabs are integrated in the design to be strong, light and seamless

Our range of SBC cockpit parts enforce our ARD (Advanced Riding Dynamics) philosophy, giving the rider the best parts possible at every price point and to suit the bike platform.

These parts are found on our entry to mid level bikes and use 6061 series Aluminium Alloy with double butted handlebars, twin bolt seatpost head adjustment and CNC finished seatpost shafts.

Our bars have generous backsweep for the mountain bikes and all round the parts are designed to provide a light and well tailored cockpit selection with our stamp of approval.

These are our high end cockpit parts using our SL addition. They are a combination of parts, either very light racing parts, or stronger trail components using carbon fibre or high end 2014 series Aluminium Alloys.

They are finished luxuriously and feature custom anodised colours where applicable. The choice of angles and sizes is done carefully to bring the best out of our bike models, giving the rider a finely tuned cockpit, ready for high performance riding.

PLATFORM OVERVIEW

SILVERBACK PROPRIETARY MOULDSSOLIDWORKS 3D CAD SOFTWARE

The Scalera range is a race-bred high performance carbon platform. This platform combines stiffness and aerodynamics into a highly attractive package. The carbon layup is stiff and lightweight and has been carefully tuned to meet the high demands of racing cyclists. The geometry is finely tuned for every size, resulting in an accurate and agile ride feel at all speeds for every size

Silverback’s SCALERA PRO was awarded a prestigious Eurobike award in 2012.

Page 9: Silverback Dealer Guide 2014

SBC ADVANCED AERO CARBON FORK

Our carbon fork uses aero fork blades to cut through the air and a large cross section to remain stiff and strong

SBC POWER TRANSFER BB FORMATION

The BB area is made as large as possible, with down tube tubing enveloping the BB width for maximum stiffness and acceleration. This is helped by use of the FSA BB386EVO system

INTERNAL ROUTED DUAL GROUP TECHNOLOGY

The Scalera frame allows the internal use of both Di2 and mechanical cabling, making it a flexible frame platform for all groupsets

POWER COMPACT REAR STAYS

The rear stays use truncated aero tubing profiles that are small in cross section to be comfortable, yet compact in overall size to remain stiff and responsive

AERODYNAMIC ADVANCED TOPTUBE

The top tube uses an almost horizontal level with a tapering tubing profile to allow as much air as possible to flow freely along the top tube, making it aerodynamic, yet super stiff with the use of large tubing diameters and sharp shaping

INTEGRATED SEAT CLAMP

The internal clamp is neat, secure and strong. It also fits into our aerodynamics structure of the frame, making for less air drag over an external clamp

AERO FORMFLOW TAPERED HEAD TUBE

This head tube combines 1 1/8” upper bearings with 1.5” lower bearings for great steering ac-curacy and front end stiffness. The curved shape maximises the aerodynamics while remaining strong, stiff and light in construction

AERO TRUNCATED POWER PROFILING

The frame is both aerodynamic and light, achieved by using a more triangular shape than a typical aero shape, it retains strength and aerodynamics in a compact shape

The Tapered head tube combines 1 1/8” upper bearings with 1.5” lower bearings for great steering accuracy and front end stiffness for fast city riding

PREMIUM CARBON

Modern carbon fibres that create a light and responsive ride feel with a comfortable layup construction. Suitable for long or short sporty rides with relaxed and stable characteristics

PROGRESSIVE CONTOUR TUBING

The subtle tubing profiles go from large to smaller as they progress from front to rear of the frame. This design gives a natural feel to the frame, putting stiffness where needed and being comfortable at the same time

INTEGRATED CARBON DROPOUTS

Our full carbon dropouts are super strong and lightweight. No risk of bonded dropouts coming apart here

INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING

The neat internal routing is clean, allowing the natural lines of the frame design remain uncluttered. The housing is well sealed internally and remains a reliable routing sealed from the weather

CARBON SPORT GEOMETRY

The combination of carbon frame and fork together with sport comfort geometry results in a ride that is easy on the body, responsive to rider input and neutral handling at all speeds

DIRECT OFFSET CARBON FORK

This fork uses a small offset to keep handling agile, yet with enough stability at higher speeds to be sure footed on the descents

PLATFORM OVERVIEW

The Strela range is a lightweight sport orientated alloy road platform. The Strela frame uses the same tubing theory as its carbon siblings by offering great stiffness in the head tube and BB areas as well as thin seat stays to allow for a more comfortable rear end. The result is a fast and efficient yet comfortable ride

SILVERBACK PROPRIETARY MOULDSSOLIDWORKS 3D CAD SOFTWARE

Page 25: Silverback Dealer Guide 2014

TAPERED HEAD TUBEThe Tapered head tube combines 1 1/8” upper bearings with 1.5” lower bearings for great steering accuracy and front end stiffness for fast city riding

TRI-FORMED ALLOY TUBING

Custom hydroformed Aluminium tubing, profiled in a torsionally stiff triangular shape. Used to join up front and rear triangles seamlessly

SILVERBACK HYDRO FORMED CUSTOM TUBING

Advanced water shaping of tubes to create strong, stiff and purpose shaped tubing for the bike model. This shaping allows unique forms to be made, pushing metal forming to the limit

STRELA CARBON FORKCarbon forks dampen the road buzz for extra comfort and control to the arms. Tapered steerer remains stiff and accurate for security on fast descents

LATERAL LITE STAYSThe seat stays are narrow from side view for vertical compliance, though wide from top view to enhance the lateral stiffness of the rear triangle

SEMI-SMOOTH WELDINGSmooth and elegant joins at the head and seat tube junctions are attractive as well as strong. Enhances the clean lines of the frame design

BRAZED ON FD MOUNTThe neat and simple braze on tab is a light, strong and easy to use attachment point for the front derailleur. This helps make shifting direct and accurate

DIRECT ROUTE CABLE MANAGEMENT

The gear housing routing stops neatly at the head tube to let the inner cables directly meet under the BB at the cable guide for direct and smooth shifting to the front and rear derailleur. Simple, clean and easy to maintain

DEVELOPED BY THE SILVERBACK LAB

Tapered head tube increases front tri-angle stiffness and steering response

Short chainstay length improves handling and responsiveness for 275 and 29 platforms

2.5 : 1 ratio suspension results in smoother suspension feel and easier tuning. Durability is also increased due to lower shock pressures and less stress on moving parts

3D forged upper linkages allow for an optimum stiffness to weight ratio. These link-ages have been redesigned to rotate downward, rather than the up-swing type of previous generations. This change has allowed for a more linear leverage ratio path

The main aim of IDS REVO is to create an efficient suspension system which is laterally very stiff. Many current suspension systems use pivots on the seatstays and chainstays, these systems are prone to flex as the pivots can move independently, this is why we use a floating pivot point design. Floating Pivot point designs use a solid rear triangle which rotates on two sets of linkages. IDS has lower linkages that use large cartridge bearings which are concentric to the BB to ensure a stiff attachment point.

Page 47: Silverback Dealer Guide 2014

3D forged seatstay bridge results in a stiff rear triangle.

Larger bearings have been implemented in key areas resulting in better durability and increased strength

Low lined Cable manage-ment means that the rear derailleur and brake cables are neatly routed on the side of the head tube and below the down tube. This keeps the cables out of the way of the moving linkages and stops any unwanted rubbing

Double fastened strut between lower linkages to minimize lateral flex

PLATFORM OVERVIEW

The Sprada is a high performance 29er trail bike that features 120mm of fork travel and 110mm of rear suspension travel. This is perfectly suited for the rider wanting a slightly more aggressive 29er for trail riding. IDS Revo suspension technology is used on this platform resulting in a stiff and predictable suspension feel with great pedalling stability. The Sprada frame features short chainstays and a compact tapered head tube which keep the ride feeling agile and precise

The Slider 275 platform is a high performance alloy trail machine that features 130mm front and rear suspension travel for aggressive riding. IDS Revo suspension technology is used on this model, resulting in a stiff and predictable suspension feel with great pedalling stability. The 275 size wheel with large volume tyres works perfectly for aggressive trail riding, offering a great balance of grip, stiffness and agility

TRI-TORSION BRIDGEThis 3D forged bridge is a key part of the rear triangle, giving strength and stiffness to the rear triangle structure for great trail riding performance

TUNED TAPERED HEAD TUBEThe Tune Tapered head tube combines 1 1/8” upper bearings with 1.5” lower bearings for great steering accuracy and front end stiffness. The curved shape maximises the materials strength and properties to be a stiff and light head tube design

PARALLEL EDGED UNIFIED REAR ENDThe rectangular tubing used on the rear triangle keeps the rear triangle in position during rough trail riding for good control and feedback. Enforces the laterally stiff linkage system

LOW LINED CABLE MANAGEMENTUnder the down tube cable routing is neat, simple and allows for full cable length routing for great sealing of rear derailleur housing.

OVERSIZED BEARINGSThe new linkages and rear triangle are made to take larger bearings for better performance and durability

FD DIRECT MOUNTDirect mount for front derailleur is stiff and accurate, making sure your shifting is at its optimum

IDS REVO TECHNOLOGYOur unique concentric BB linkage that makes for a laterally stiff rear triangle is kept supple and responsive by the multiple linkages for superb riding control and comfort

DOUBLE TUBED CUSTOM DOWN TUBEHydroformed down tube with double bend allows space for the rear shock to mount securely, and strengthens the join to the head tube for great front end stiffness

PLATFORM OVERVIEW

The SignoTecnica is a ground-breaking new platform that pushes the boundaries of modern trail riding. The key feature of the model is the 279 Dynamic Efficiency Technology. The 279 concept incorporates the advantages of both 27.5” and 29” wheels into one platform, this is done by using the larger 29” wheel on the front and the midsized 27.5” wheel on rear. The result is a uniquely new ride feel that fits perfectly into the aggressive trail-riding category

TRIPLE BUTTED TECHNOLOGY

The Custom Nickel tubing is triple butted to provide an ideal combination of strength and stiffness where needed at the joins, & thin tube thickness in the middle of tubes to save weight & keep the frame feeling lively and responsive. It provides a safer lightweight butting compared to double butted tubes

SBC THRU AXLE TECHNOLOGY

Rear SBC thru axle provides a stiff and secure fastening of the rear wheel. The custom design integrates a threaded hanger that can be easily replaced should there be damage. The frame supports the 142 x 12mm axle and enhances rear wheel tracking in rough trail condi-tions for added rider control

PRESS FIT BB

Shimano Press Fit 92 BB system is integrated into this frame to provide a wide BB shell to help pedalling stiffness, while being a light and reliable solution. The Shimano cups can be easily pressed in and out of frame and leaves no danger of damaged threads in the frame

DOUBLE-O TECHNOLOGY

The ovalised top and down tubes, combined with support struts and overall large diameter tubing provide a stiff and responsive chassis to be accurate even when the trail is rough and twisty. All your energy is directed into going forward with precise direction
