Elite Square Intelligent Frame with Virtual Shift Elite

The Elite Square is an intelligent frame with high-end virtual shifting that replicates your bike's components right down to the exact drivetrain configuration for indoor training.

Square lets you customize the controls and precisely align the shifting logic with Shimano, SRAM or Campagnolo, so you can ride it like your own bike. Set the number of sprockets and cassette teeth, choose the number of teeth on each chainring, or select predefined profiles and sequential shifting from the dedicated app.

The feeling of shifting is real: use the levers and buttons on the handlebars as you would outdoors. The belt drive offers smooth, fluid pedaling, without noise or vibration; with Square, your sessions remain remarkably silent.

Square is fully adjustable, with seven settings to suit a wide range of body sizes: saddle height, tilt and kickback; handlebar height and reach; top tube and crank length. With its modular architecture, your training station remains upgradeable, with countless configurations and advanced bread-cellar accessories like Rizer.

Product highlights :

• Virtual shifting and customizable gears: Elite's Smart Frame features a high-level virtual shifting system that allows for great customizability when configuring gears. Square allows you to reproduce the three main manufacturers, Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo, with customizable configurations for ratios and gearing to exactly replicate your bike's drivetrain. Simply select your preferred shifting system on first use on the dedicated Square app to mimic the major manufacturers' drivetrains with 13 customizable presets, customizing gears to your liking, including the number of gears and the number of teeth on the cassette. Square also offers two preset profile modes: for gears and teeth, divided into different drive types (flat, uphill, mixed). Alternatively, you can immediately use a convenient pre-set Shimano 12-speed (11-30) profile. It also features customizable sequential shifting with variable resistance levels ranging from 5 to 24. Finally, operate the handlebar-mounted lever and button systems as you would with your bike outdoors.
• Multifunction handlebars: The handlebars have the same buttons and levers for shifting and braking as those you'd find on bikes with Shimano, SRAM or Campagnolo shifting systems, positioned and operating in the same way on the Square. Each controller is equipped with 10 buttons: four buttons to activate third-party app controls (protocol available, awaiting implementation by software publishers), two buttons to directly adjust the airflow intensity of Aria, Elite's intelligent fan, if connected, or to activate virtual steering on Zwift, allowing your avatar to move right or left on the course, two gear change buttons, a dedicated Campagnolo change button, and a brake button, activated via the brake lever. Combinations and pressure of the levers and buttons enable additional controls such as extended shifting, switching from manual to simulation mode with Aria, and switching from one profile to another.

Handlebar specs: Buttons and controls are positioned above the grips and handlebar bar for a comfortable, unobstructed grip. Ideal for maintaining correct posture during workouts and conveniently using buttons. The handlebars are 420 mm wide with a 6° flare, perfect for ensuring maximum comfort during long training sessions or the most extreme races. Adding to the comfort of the handlebars are grips with soft, non-slip silicone coatings, just like on most real bikes. As well as providing a more comfortable grip, they ensure a more secure hold and greater durability over time. The Square includes a pre-installed bracket with a Garmin mount, compatible with the most popular bike computers on the market. A dedicated tablet holder will also be available for purchase, to accommodate your devices with ease and stability.

• Completely adjustable, from XS to XL : Completely adjustable, from XS to XL Thanks to its adjustable structure, Square optimizes the configuration of your installation, allowing you to easily reproduce the measurements of bikes of different sizes and heights, with several adjustable options from XS to XL. In just a few simple steps, you can customize Square to fit your bike perfectly, adjusting the different sections to the dimensions of your frame to respect your pedaling motion and muscle memory during indoor workouts. Square is designed with an architecture that allows millimeter-accurate adjustment: Saddle height, inclination, forward and return; Handlebar height, forward and return; Horizontal tube length; Crank length. All you need to do is read the measurements indicated on the adjustment zones equipped with millimeter scales to help you adapt the frame to your pedaling needs and the dimensions of your touring bike in just a few simple steps. Adjustable crank length Adjustable crank length You'll also have five different configurations for adjusting crankset length for complete customization of the smart frame to your bike's specifications. Settings available: 165 mm, 167.5 mm, 170 mm, 172.5 mm, 175 mm.
• Unrivalled peace of mind: with Square, silence becomes the key to an extraordinary riding experience. Thanks to the belt drive system, you can enjoy smooth, silent pedaling like never before, with no noise from the chain or home trainer. This system is the ideal integration for your training space, as it offers a smooth, realistic pedaling experience, with the advantage of absolute silent operation that's always clean, because the belt doesn't require lubrication and doesn't get dirty like conventional frame chains. Thanks to the total absence of noise and vibration, Square is perfectly suited to home use, without disturbing family members or neighbors. With its wide range of settings, Square lets you share your setup with other cyclists without having to change bikes for different users. You won't have to dismantle and reassemble your bike if you don't already have one dedicated to home trainers, or if several cyclists use the same Elite home trainer at home. You'll no longer need a spare set of sprockets for the bike you use indoors, or to always have all the adapters and spacers on hand to attach the bike to the home trainer for every workout. Square also simplifies the assembly of your station by eliminating the cassette in favor of a single sprocket to be installed on the home trainer. This practical configuration makes it possible to connect any Elite home trainer to the frame quickly, without having to intervene on the bike's rear derailleur as in a conventional assembly.
• Plug and Play: The frame is Plug & Play because it's battery-powered and doesn't need electricity when you use it, allowing you to concentrate solely on assembling Square with the home trainer and any accessories. Installation and pairing with Elite home trainers is quick and easy, thanks to the accessories and adjustment keys supplied and the Square control app, which, on first launch, lets you: configure your frame and pair the Elite home trainer to the Smart Frame simply by touching the nearest detected trainer; create up to 5 personalized user profiles according to transmission type and developments; pre-set a level to be maintained in stand-alone mode; access all main functions and settings. The app can be downloaded from the App Store and Google Play.
• Control your workouts even without a connection: The Elite intelligent frame offers you the versatility of being used in stand-alone mode even when not connected to a specific training app. Ideal if you're using it in an area with few connections. By simply using the levers on the handlebars, you can adjust the resistance from 1 to 16 levels, independently of the lever operated, for total control over your workout even without any connectivity.
• Integrated with all home trainers and accessories: Square is smart because it's designed to integrate seamlessly with our complete ecosystem of technologies dedicated to indoor cycling. The modular structure offers the advantage of being able to update the system at any time simply by replacing the front support leg with the Rizer, Elite's slope simulator with integrated steering, with which Square is perfectly compatible to give you the most realistic climbing sensation on the indoor cycling market. The real pedaling sensation is always recreated by the Elite home trainer connected to the Smart Frame, which in our flagship models like the Justo 2 is capable of automatically managing resistance up to an exorbitant 24% gradient and measuring with less than 1% accuracy the power you exert on the home trainer thanks to its internal power sensor.
