Cyclocross Frames

The Pass Hunter is the speediest of our offerings and is designed for light-packing adventures over mountain passes, Sport Touring, and even the weekend club ride! While this may look like a traditional randonneur, don't let that elegant Cool Blue and nostalgic 80's Burgundy paint and metallic logos fool you. This frameset is packed with modern design and features. The wishbone rear triangle is a Velo Orange custom arrangement. By simplifying the connection points, it makes the rear end light and springy for optimal power transfer. The main triangle uses an oversized 35.0mm downtube and a standard 28.6 top tube. It makes the bike planted, comfortable, and with flex in all the right places. Lastly, the front end. The headtube is tapered to allow the use of aftermarket carbon forks that are available such as Rodeo Labs and Whisky, along with many others that fit into the "utili-fork" genre. The steel fork offered with the frameset has an axle-crown of 393mm with 51mm of rake.

The Otso Fenrir is a ride-anywhere bike for bikepacking races and afternoon adventures alike. It can be built with drop bars or with MTB bars and both selections are available as stock build options. A tire clearance of 29” x 2.6” or 27.5” x 2.8” keeps the Fenrir rolling on rough terrain, while extra frame and fork braze-ons are ready to carry gear for days or weeks on the trail. Like all Otso bikes, the Fenrir has adjustable geometry via the patented Tuning Chip rear dropout system that makes the bike as adaptable as its rider.

Le Montréal is most popular frameset and the most versatile. Whether built up as a commuter, porteur, randonneur, touring, or cyclocross cycle, its 4130 Chromoly frame balances style and function. Inspired by classic 1980s touring bikes, Le Montréal features eyelets for front and rear fenders and racks, three bottle cages, and eyelets for our signature shoulder strap. New features for the Montréal V3 Oversized tubes on all sizes for better stability with a touring load (or your kid) on the rear of the bike Extra bottle cage mount under the downtube (that's three total) More rooms for wide tires, up to 45mm on all sizes (with fenders!)

The Piolet is our bikepacking and rough-road riding frame. It's designed for off-road touring, including dirt and gravel roads, double track, and single track. We built it to be sturdy, simple, and very capable. As with our other frames it's double butted chromoly steel. The fork is triple butted for reduced weight and extra strength. The seatstays come together in a cool mono-stay wishbone and compliment the segmented fork. The frameset is covered in bosses for easily mounting any racks, water-bottles, gear cages, and even fenders. It's happily set up in bikepacking fashion or as a traditional rack and bag tourer! The Piolet handles similarly to a XC mountain bike, but slightly more in the touring direction. Feels natural with drop bars or flat bars. Non-suspension corrected fork handles predictably with or without a load! The Small are designed around 26 x 2.4" tires. M, L, and XL use 29 x 2.4" or 27.5 x 2.8" tires. Here are some frame details and features: Frameset material: 4130 double butted chrome-moly Fork: 1 1/8" threadless Wheel Size: 29" & 27.5+ (M, L, XL), 26" (S) Tire: 29" x 2.4" or 27.5 x 2.8" (M, L, XL), 26" x 2.4 (S) Rear Spacing: 135mm Bottom Bracket: English threaded 73mm, mountain cranksets only Brakes: 160 - 180mm disc Seatpost: 27.2mm Front Derailleur Size: 28.6mm, bottom pull/bottom swing Water bottle mounts: 3 sets on frame, 2 sets on fork blades Fender bosses: seatstay bridge, chainstay bridge, under fork crown Dropouts: Vertical with triple eyelets Lowrider thru bosses on fork 2 sets of seatstay rack eyelets Replaceable stainless steel derailleur hanger Paint: Deep Metallic Blue
