LANDRACE Tupelo Urban Gravel
The LANDRACE Tupelo Urban Gravel is the latest expression of our recently award winning Tupelo frameset
We have spent twenty five years listening to the riders stories and occasions when their bikes hurt or even gave them a long term injury. We all love our bikes so much that it feels like a personal betrayal - like your own dog biting your hand!
It's the geometry, stupid
So, beyond everything, myself and Jules were determined to design a bike that would genuinely look after people. Give folk every opportunity to meet all their goals and destinations, with maximum efficiency and comfort. It became our lode-star when designing the Tupelo - never, ever deviate from what we know to be right. It's the geometry, stupid. Ride across London or Europe, the experience should be as sweet as Tupelo honey.
3AL-2.5V titanium is just about our favourite base material
Columbus forks are hand-painted by Moulton in UK
Tupelo Urban Gravel
Every bike at Cyclefit is a project and a Tupelo Urban Gravel is no different. Our test-bike is only an example of what you can do.
UK-Centric
We make our wheels here at Cyclefit. The Hope Pro5 hubs are made in Lancashire. Our LANDRACE luggage is made in Nottinghamshire and our Columbus forks are painted by Moulton in Bradford-On-Avon. Even the hand-laced leather (Italian) grips are hand-made in the UK
But you may want to take an entirely different route. And we would be delighted to help you!
This is a test-bike. And we would love you to take it for a ride.
"Beyond everything, Jules and were determined to design a bike that would genuinely look after people"
At home in the great piazzas of major cities or gravel tracks that may connect them
"Ride across London or Europe"
Ritchey flat-bar and stem, hand-laced leather grips.
We have kept it simple with 1 x 12 SRAM AXS shifting
We have selected polished H+Son rims built on Hope Pro5 hubs and DT Swiss DB spokes. And GravelKing 38mm tyres
"This is a test-bike. And we would love you to take it for a ride."
Super-commuter or expedition machine?
Either, both. There is a clue in the title. LANDRACE.
