The frame is made of Columbus XCr tubes, an extremely strong and light stainless steel. These tubes have a larger diameter, which makes it possible to obtain a reactive behavior. The responsiveness of a bike depends a lot on the stiffness of the frame, and this stiffness is more easily achieved by increasing the diameter of the tubes, rather than by increasing their thickness.

The stem was custom-made in our workshop. It helps bring this project together from an aesthetics standpoint. Also, it raises the handlebars by ten millimeters, in order to obtain the riding position defined during the fitting session.
