The Skyelander Disc is a custom made touring bike with the frame and forks hand built in England.
The lugged frame is built using air hardened Reynolds 631 for the main frame. The stays are Reynolds 631 & 725. The fork blades are disc specific Reynolds 631. We use lugs to give the frame optimal strength.
An upgrade to Reynolds 853 main frame + 853 fork blades is an option.
It's designed with clearance for 40mm tyres with mudguards.
The frame's relatively long chainstays (450mm or 455mm for more heal clearance with panniers) and steel frame make this the ideal companion on a long distance loaded road trip, both strong and comfortable.
The Skyelander Disc comes equipped with Shimano XT 10 speed triple chainset (26/36/48T), XT derailleurs, XT disc hubs, Shimano short pull brake levers for flat bars and TRP RRL drilled hole brake levers for drops (or Sram S500), Microshift bar-end shifters 10 speed and Nitto heat treated drop bars finished with comfortable Brooks microfibre bar tape. Flat bars are also an option.
The bike is fitted with the excellent TRP Spyre mechnical disc brakes on IS mounts coupled with Shimano 160mm rotors and TRP RRL drilled hole levers - we use compressionless cable housing for better braking performance.
The wheels are handbuilt using Ryde Andra 321 disc 700c rims on Deore XT hubs, with Marathon Mondial Performance 40mm tyres and Schwalbe inner tubes. Other rim and tyres choices are available as upgrades.

The frames are lugged for optimal strength, but the frames can also be fillet brazed. We offer both an ahead and quill version.
It is finished in Dusk Blue (although other colours are available). The frames are double powder coated for increased durability and longevity.
