James’ Titanium All-Road Bike

Making 700c wheels look like 26”

It’s not often I have to lower the saddle to do a test ride or leave the steerer tube uncut, but I had to do both on this tall titanium frame. James wanted a bike for general road use in the PNW and beyond.

42mm tire clearance and carbon Astral Cycling hoops help the frame roll over any surface with ease and class. Custom-bent stays allow for double chainrings and heel clearance for some big shoes. Like every other tube on the frame they are thicker and/or oversized for keeping the pedaling platform firm.
