Description
A true mixte frame with the double top tube/stays. Obviously offers lots of standover height and style as well. You’ll find the geometry is more sporty, than upright-comfy. Though it can be built up to suit either demeanor. Drop bars? Sure. Moustache bars? Of course.
The upgrade to fitting disc brakes opens this mixte to fitting many different widths of tires, so instead of being limited to 700c x 32mm road tires, you can experiment with a variety of gravel and touring tires as well.
– Tange Prestige heat-treated CrMo steel main tubes
– Sport touring geometry
– Matching lugged crown CrMo steel fork INCLUDED. Features low-rider pannier mounts.
– Rack and fender eyelets
– Tange/IRD Sliding dropouts allows for geared and single speed drivetrains
– 135mm hub spacing
– ISO disc mounts
– Fits 1-1/8? (EC34) external cup headset
– 27.2mm seatpost size
– 42, 50, 54, 58, 62cm (Center to top of seat collar)
– The 42cm size on the Rim Brake model uses 26? wheels, but all sizes of the Disc model will fit 700c wheels and fit tires as wide as 42mm. Though for smaller frames using 650b wheels will decrease toe overlap with the front wheel.
– Weight: Frame: 5.8 lbs(50cm) Fork: 2.35 lbs (350mm uncut steerer)
– In Teal Metallic -

The Smoothie HP is the “high protein” version of our Smoothie road frame that was part of our line for almost 20 years.
Extra large diameter, thin-wall Tange Prestige chromoly coupled with modern touches like thru-axles and compact geometry give this frame increased power transfer and road feel while still delivering a composed and plush ride at all speeds. The re-designed geometry combines a comfortable higher stack with a shorter wheelbase that rewards skillful riders.
Frame Features:
- Tange Prestige heat-treated double butted CrMo steel
- Extra oversized down tube and chainstays for greater pedaling stiffness
- Ovalized top tube for increased lateral stiffness and vertical compliance
- Size specific tubing (Larger diameter down tubes on the larger sizes)
- Comfortable high stack matched with a tighter wheelbase than the typical big brand endurance road frame
- Replaceable modular dropouts (12 x 142mm bolt-on thru-axle, fits flat mount disc brake)
- BSA Threaded bottom bracket shell
- Rear rack/fender mounts
- Max tire size: 700x32c with fenders
- Two water bottle boss sets
- 6 sizes: 48, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60

Description
Ever since the birth of the first Straggler it has been blazing trails and kicking up dust in the gravel world.
Over a decade later the newest Straggler emerges — a highly capable, no-nonsense gravel machine with a wider range of fitment and updated geometry to satisfy those who need a "do-it-all" kind of ride.
The new Straggler is for the rider who sees challenges, not obstacles. Someone who embraces the ethos of the Straggler and is excited to see it do more. Someone eager to push the boundaries of exploration with a "do-it-all" gravel bike that's equally comfortable on- and off-road.
It utilises the same dropouts and brake mounts as the current Midnight Special, along with thru-axles and flat-mount brakes for more performance-oriented riding where stability prevails.
Other updates include:
- Raised stack for more comfortable and visible riding
- Lowered seat tube for greater travel windows on dropper posts
- Sloped top tube to improve standover height for riders with shorter inseams
- Slightly lowered bottom brackets for more rider confidence
- Internal dropper post routing compatible
- 2 standard and 1 three-pack bottle mounts on all frames
- 44mm head tube diameter allows for varied fork options; steel, carbon, or even a 40mm gravel suspension fork
- Straggler fork with 12x100mm thru-axle, flat mount brake standard, 44mm offset, with rack and fender mounts
- 12x142mm rear thru-axlePOA
