WILIER TRIESTINA | 120 YEARS FORWARD
Wilier Triestina celebrates 120 years of history and presents Filante Ultimate, the most exclusive edition ever
Wilier Triestina closes 2025 with a consolidated turnover of € 70 million and opens 2026 with volume growth of 7% compared to the previous year. The milestone of 120 years — the brand was founded in Bassano del Grappa in 1906 — comes at one of the most solid phases in its history.
“In 2025, we achieved a consolidated turnover of € 70 million and 2026 is developing with volume growth of 7% compared to the previous year”, states Andrea Gastaldello, CEO of Wilier Triestina. “Results sustained by the success of models such as the Filante SLR ID2, Rave SLR ID2 and Rapida, which best express our ability to combine technological innovation, performance, design and identity. For 2026, we aim to achieve a gross operating margin of 10% of revenue and we continue to work with a long-term perspective oriented towards growth and value creation.”
For the anniversary, Wilier presents Filante Ultimate: the most exclusive edition ever produced by the brand.
The next-gen Toray M40X carbon frame combines six different fibres in a layup designed to reduce weight even further and transmit energy without loss: responsive in accelerations, precise in changes of pace and stable at high speeds.
Completing the setup, a selection of exclusive components developed for this edition: from the CeramicSpeed overszed pulley cage to the colour-matched painted seatpost, the Miche X2 RD chainring, the blue anodised dropout, the axles and disc lockrings, the dedicated handlebar tape and the painted junction elements between handlebar and frame. The project is completed by the dedicated aerokit and Vittoria tyres, chosen to enhance its character further.
The setup is enriched by the Deva RD Daylight Silver wheels and the CeramiSpeed bottom bracket bearings, further elevating the smoothness, efficiency, and technical sophistication of the entire project.
Wilier Triestina, 120 years Forward
“We look to the future with ambition and responsibility”, adds Gastaldello. “Our development priorities are clear: strengthening our presence in the gravel segment, accelerating growth in non-European markets and further consolidating our positioning in the key European markets. The 120 years represent a new starting point from which to face a phase of further evolution and international development.”
The celebrations for Wilier Triestina’s 120th anniversary were held at Villa Contarini, in Piazzola sul Brenta, with 120 Years Forward, an evening that brought together the entire brand community: dealers, ambassadors, partners and guests, including some of the riders who have contributed to writing its story. During the event, the new Filante Ultimate was also officially presented.
At the centre of the villa, an immersive exhibition told the story of Wilier Triestina’s DNA, its identity and the vision that guides its development today. More than a celebration of the past, the journey explored the values, insights and design culture that have defined the company’s recent evolution, placing the Culture of Speed at its heart: a philosophy that interprets speed as the synthesis of research, innovation, design and a deep cycling culture.
120 Years Forward represented not only the culmination of the anniversary celebrations, but also a declaration of intent. A moment in which Wilier reaffirmed its capacity to evolve, maintaining a firm sense of identity and continuing to look ahead, towards the next chapters of its story.
