When we look at the Cento1NDR, it evokes images of riding the beautiful "white roads" around Tuscany or tackling famous sections of pave at Flanders or Roubaix. It's hard not to channel your inner classics specialist and picture yourself duking it out in a select group of fast riders that have made the selection late in the race. And in races such as these, both in reality and in our heads, the equipment demands require an efficient machine that can soak up the rough roads.

The Cento1NDR isn't a full-on gravel bike by any means, it has the Jaroon for that. What it is though is a bike that is much more forgiving on traditional and rougher road surfaces than Wilier's standard Cento, and the efficiency and weight penalties a...
