Cyclocross frame needs to be stable, comfortable, efficient, easy to maintain, and, bump resistant. Titanium alloy becomes a strong contender for the most suitable material for these purposes. Moreover, monostay, through axel and flat mount brake system design add the icing on the cake. This bike may not put you on a podium, but, it definitely is a fun bike you don’t feel like getting off.
Snow-like triangle flakes give a final touch to this function-oriented product. It is a good bike and a charming one.
