Straggler Frameset - 650b

The Straggler is expertly crafted for versatile exploration across a range of terrain. It’s designed to be your go-to bike for day trips and weekend adventures. Whether you’re navigating rough roads, tackling cyclocross without the pressure of competition, running errands in the city, or embarking on light-duty tours, the Straggler handles it all with ease.

Built as a steel gravel bike, it offers a smooth and reliable ride even on paved surfaces, blending the ruggedness of a mountain bike with the performance of a road bike. If you need just one bike to cover all your needs, the Straggler is the ideal choice.
