Description
The Grand Randonneur is a road frame optimized to carry a front load. We have equipped it with rear rack mounts, but it feels best with a front load only. The version 3 of the "Grando" makes quite a few updates.
• The geometry is still low trail in the front, but we have tried to make the handling slightly more stable than version 1 and 2.
• We have tweaked the tubing mix to add stiffness at the bottom bracket, while keeping this frame our lightest model.
• We have modernized parts of it: Adding IS disc mounts and thru-axle hubs compatibility. And of course everyone wants just slightly more tire clearance.
• With its skinny steel tubes and 1" threaded lugged crown fork it still has the vintage road bike look.
• Tange Prestige CrMo tubes, double-butted
• Threaded 1" lugged crown fork is equipped with low rider pannier bosses, mini rack eyelets and double eyelets at the dropouts. Thru-axle hub compatible. IS disc mounts
• Designed for 650b wheels
• Max. tire fit: 650 x 47mm semi-knob tire
(Max. fender width: 50mm)
• Modular rear dropouts: Stock set up is for 142mm x 12mm thru-axle with IS disc mounts.
• Rear rack and fender eyelets
• Pump peg at headtube
• 3 sets of water bosses
• Headset type: 1" ISO Threaded external cups(EC30/25.4|EC30/26) (Needle/Roller bearings recommended)
• Seatpost fit: 27.2mm
• Weight: Frame: 4.25 lbs Fork: 2.35 lbs -
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.

– Fits 1-1/8? (EC34) external cup headset

Description
The challenge was thus: Build a serious steel bike and give it only the attributes that matter most. Make it quick and comfortable on pavement, as well as confident and compliant on degraded surfaces. What the Enginerds put forth is Preamble, a pavement and gravel utility worker that proves you don’t need to cut corners or clip coupons to make a more affordable steel bike. You just need to keep shit simple.
Preamble can run racks and fenders and carry a couple water bottles. Surly was raised on stealing basic cable, after all. Smooth and efficient on asphalt, Preamble’s double-butted main triangle provides a resplendent ride feel and withstands abuse from life’s inevitable potholes. Make it your own with flat bars, drop bars, a basket, or bags. On the road to steel euphoria, Preamble is the gateway drug.

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
