what makes us best... research & development

ARD
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.
We have achieved this by essentially thinking differently about bikes, by applying lateral solutions to the process of designing and producing bicycles.
2
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).
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
3
suspension system – “IDS REVO”. This dual suspension system enhances stiffness and reduces pedal bobbing notably more than most competitor designs.
We believe in delivering the best price to specification to quality ratio in the industry, and define this as “Best in Class Metrics” (BIC). BIC means that Silverback customers get the most desirable technology at an affordable price. These metrics include:
In addition, Silverback has made the biggest investment in the

Other programmes include our SBC (Silverback Concepts) designs, including a unique thru-axle system and a dual density grip design.
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.

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.
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
PLATFORM OVERVIEW 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

SBC POWER TRANSFER BB FORMATION
SBC ADVANCED AERO CARBON FORK
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
Our carbon fork uses aero fork blades to cut through the air and a large cross section to remain stiff and strong
POWER COMPACT REAR STAYS
INTERNAL ROUTED DUAL GROUP TECHNOLOGY
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
The Scalera frame allows the internal use of both Di2 and mechanical cabling, making it a flexible frame platform for all groupsets
INTEGRATED SEAT CLAMP
AERODYNAMIC ADVANCED TOPTUBE
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
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
AERO TRUNCATED POWER PROFILING
AERO FORMFLOW TAPERED HEAD TUBE
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
This 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 aerodynamics while remaining strong, stiff and light in construction

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

TAPERED HEAD TUBE
STRELA CARBON FORK
ROAD PERFORMANCE
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
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
Carbon forks dampen the road buzz for extra comfort and control to the arms. Tapered steerer remains stiff and accurate for security on fast descents
SEMI-SMOOTH WELDING
LATERAL LITE STAYS
Smooth and elegant joins at the head and seat tube junctions are attractive as well as strong. Enhances the clean lines of the frame design
The seat stays are narrow from side view for vertical compliance, though wide from top view to enhance the lateral stiffness of the rear triangle
DIRECT ROUTE CABLE MANAGEMENT
BRAZED ON FD MOUNT
STRELA
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
The 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
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

2 Tapered head tube increases front triangle stiffness and steering response
3 Short chainstay length improves handling and responsiveness for 275 and 29 platforms
4 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 linkages 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
DEVELOPED BY THE SILVERBACK LAB 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.

6 Low lined Cable management 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
Larger bearings have been implemented in key areas resulting in better durability and increased strength

PLATFORM OVERVIEW SPRADA 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

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
