We will now be offering two spec choices for our Skyelander 650b. Both will have the option of 1" threaded steerer for a quill stem, or a 1 1/8" threadless for ahead. We will also have a disc option with Reynolds tubing. All the frames will be custom made based on the customer's measurements, they will be lugged, include mounts for 2 x bottle cages, front and rear racks (Reynolds tubing only) and mudguards. The frame will include a Rene Herse chainslap strap and use Rene Herse brake cable stops on the top tube. External dynamo wire guides can be brazed onto the fork blade if required. There will be a choice of low trail (c39mm) or mid+ trail (c58mm).
