Polymer Workshop® in collaboration with Officine Mattio and CeramicSpeed, presents a special project based on Italian craftsmanship and progressively designed components, fused with industry-leading bearing technology.

Introducing the first road bike designed and equipped by Polymer Workshop® in collaboration with Italian bike manufacturer Officine Mattio and industry-leading bearing manufacturer CeramicSpeed.

This special Lemma RT will be produced in an extremely limited run of only 20 uniquely numbered bikes. Each bike will come with its own verification card, ensuring authenticity, and a Token Access NFC-Tag that is securely bonded to the frame.

Italian Craftsmanship

The project is based on the Lemma RT Frameset, designed by Officine Mattio as their all-around race bike. It features dropped seat stays, internal cable routing, and neo-classic race geometry. This allows for an aggressive build with a tire clearance of up to 32mm.

The frameset has been visually redesigned by Polymer Workshop® to create a conceptual universe and a timeless aesthetic that reflects the minimalist mindset. It features a deep silver fade running from the back to the front, as well as reworked artwork and sign-offs.

Progressive Components

The Lemma RT is equipped with the . This specific wheelset is designed and engineered to ensure a uniformly swift and seamless riding experience, regardless of the terrain. It allows the rider to maintain high speeds with less effort, significantly improving ride efficiency. Its carbon spokes add stiffness and stability while keeping weight down.

Additionally, the bike features the new Sculpture Handlebar, which provides an integrated, comprehensive solution for progressive bike handling. With its ergonomic design and narrow profile, this handlebar provides superior bike positioning, ensuring a safer and more comfortable ride.

Furthermore, to complement these features, the bike includes the Obelisk Seatpost. This seatpost, with its lightweight design and rigidity, provides the essential support required for racing.

This blend of components ensures that every ride is a unique blend of comfort, control, and speed.

Bearing Technology

CeramicSpeed's commitment to precision engineering and innovation has resulted in a superior product that outperforms competitors in various areas, but most importantly, the low friction of their bearings.

The Lemma RT is all bearings used in this bike build are supplied by CeramicSpeed, meaning that all wheel bearings, including their maintenance-free SLT (Solid Lubricant Technology) headset bearings, and a custom Cerakoted gray OSPW System.

  • Wheels
  • Bottom Bracket
  • SLT Headset
  • OSPW System

In total, the bearings alone are set to save you a good chunk of friction and deliver an ultra-smooth experience while riding.
