Quote Source - Kim Foster. BowTi owner who just completed the Altravesur bikepacking route
“The bike was excellent, very comfortable and i was extremely pleased with it. Same with the wheels, i had my doubts about carbon fibre rims, but i think they made quite a difference on the climbs paired with the relatively light Jumbo jim tyres.”
BowTi Features
Built for Adventure
The BowTi is designed to handle anything from daily errands to off-grid adventures. With rear rack mounts fitted as standard, you can easily carry your shopping or load up for a weekend in the hills with your camping gear—and, of course, a few beers.
Stay Hydrated
For those long rides, the frame includes two bottle cage mounts plus a 3 bolt anything cage mount under the downtube, giving you extra capacity to stay refreshed wherever the trail takes you.
Cable routing
The BowTi features guided internal cable routing, making maintenance quick and easy. This system also includes dropper post routing, so you can upgrade your ride without the headache. Should you prefer external routing, no problem, we can do this also.
Future-Ready Drivetrain
Equipped with a UDH (Universal Derailleur Hanger), the BowTi gives you the flexibility to run a traditional drivetrain or go completely cable-free if you prefer a wireless setup.
You can of course ditch the Derailleur and go for a Pinion Gearbox with either electric Smart Shift or manual. This includes a split seatstay to take either belt or chain drive.
More Clearance, More Confidence
The BowTi retains its signature curved top tube, providing increased standover clearance—perfect for those moments when "Emergency Clearance" is absolutely necessary!
Wherever your next ride takes you, the BowTi is ready.
