Features
BrakesMechanical Disc BrakesMechanical discs operate much the same way as hydraulic, but are actuated by a traditional cable. While they don't offer quite the same power, they are less expensive to purchase and maintain.
DrivetrainTriple ChainringThree chainrings give you the largest gear spread to get you up those steepest hills.
FrameButted TubingBy thinning the walls of the frame tubing, you achieve lighter weight and better ride quality.Full Rack and Fender MountsA full complement of specialized mounts allows for loading up your bike with all the necessary accessories for touring and commuting in comfort.S-bend SeatstaysBy carefully bending the seatstays, we are able to increase the ride quality of the bike. The curvy stays take a little bit of the sting out of road and trail imperfections.Sloping Top TubeA Brodie trademark, the sloping top tube gives more clearance in emergency situations.
