Steel gravel frame for Colorado


This one will be mated to an Enve fork and a Campagnolo guppo.The customer picked up all the parts for a good price so it will be interesting for me to see a Campagnolo gravel group for the first time
 

Steel rim brake road frame with steel fork

Yes, I still build these and there has been a renewed interest in rim brakes and mechanical shifting. This frame is 3 lbs. 11 oz. , not bad for steel. The rider is only 145 lbs. so he's the right build for a light frame like this one.

Small steel gravel frame for Seattle

This little frame is for a 5'6" rider but it will have an Enve Expidition fork instead of the usual G-series . The frame has rack and fender fittings and the fork will have the same along with bottle mounts. 
 
This frame is only 4 lb. 2 oz. and is made almost entirely out of Columbus Zona. The tubing profiles are a bit smaller for the 145 lb. rider.  It is made to take 700x45 tires.

Steel CX frame going to Tn. with rocker dropouts

Its like two frames in one- can be geared or can be a single speed or even have an internally geared hub. The extra charge for the dropouts is really worth it for someone who wants the options.

All road frame in steel


 This frame is made in a similar style to my "ultimundo" road frame but with room for 700x38 tires.
So, this is not a gravel frame but really a big tire road frame made for the Enve "All-road" fork.
I think there's a place for bikes like this as people are wanting a bike that is a bit more nimble and street oriented than the typical gravel frame.
