New Albion Drake Touring Road Bike Frame 58cm Large 650B 27.5 Disc Tange Steel! For NEW frame only, finished photo is an example of how it could be built. An adventure touring frame built around 650b/27.5 tires. Stable enough medium duty touring and bikepacking, but also offers an enjoyable ride unloaded as well. The bottom bracket height is higher than your average touring bike or road bike, but not as high as a hardtail mountain bike to give some advantage riding off-road while still feeling steady loaded up. Tange Infinity double butted CrMo steel main tubes; tapered CrMo rear tubes. Fits racks and fenders. Three sets of water bottle bosses. Extra tall headtube makes upright builds look better. Will handle tires up to 27.5 x 2.1 tires (42mm wide tires if using fenders). Designed for disc brakes (International Standard mount, 160mm rotors). Rear rack mounts. Bottom bracket: PressFit PF30. We chose this spec, because it is compatible with eccentric bottom brackets which is needed by folks wanting to run a Rolhoff hub or other internal geared hub.
