Midnight purple. Fading to black. 🟣⚫️ Meet the Avenger R8RS — aerodynamics with an attitude. Built to cut the wind. Painted to steal the light.

Park the R8RS under studio lights and it reads almost black. Take it outside, into moving air and shifting sun, and the down tube wakes up — deep violet rolling into ink, the white AVENGER wordmark floating across the belly of the frame like a signature on a blade.

That's the whole idea behind Midnight Purple: a paint that behaves like the frame itself. Nothing decorative, nothing slowing you down. Just surface, light, and the shape underneath doing the real work.
Under the purple sits a full Toray T800 + T1000 layup — roughly 508 individually CNC-cut plies, each one placed by hand. The moulding combines an EPS inner core with vacuum consolidation, squeezing air out from between plies so walls come out even, wrinkle-free and smooth on the inside. That's what turns a light frame into a stiff, consistent one.

Frame that takes high-intensity training and race-day abuse without complaint — and, yes, it's on the UCI approved frameset list.
