Stainless rear triangle Not just a pretty finish. The stiffness of stainless steel means smaller diameter tubes can be used that still provide the strength, power transfer and sweet ride compliance of titanium without the high price tag. Perfect for both fast rides and all day jaunts. |
Fillet brazed welds A laborious technique of joining tubes that produces a smooth finish with almost no weld visible. Brass is built up around two tubes. The frame is then cooled and cleaned using water and a wire brush. Finally the brass is filed down by hand to achieve a flat finish. |
Stainless fork The elegant stainless fork with a gleaming polished finish is stiff in sprints and under acceleration, whilst the properties of stainless material ensure the ride is smooth. |
