Steel gravel frame for Baldwinsville, NY.

The rider of this frame is 6'4" and 250 lbs. so I had to build it stout. It is a mixture of mostly Columbus Zona with a VeloSpec down tube and a Reynolds seat tube. The Reynolds tube is thicker walled than the Columbus version so it should cut down on flex.

The frame is made for a double chainring and 700x42 tires with a bit of mud room. The chain stays are listed as Zona MTB but I wind up using them a lot for bikes like this as the CX chain stays don't have enough bend for the bigger tires. 

One extra step I took was to increase the rear bend on the chain stays to get more heel clearance for his size 14 feet. I hope that it does the job.
