Pathfinder

The ultimate adventure touring/gravel frameset

Equally at home flying through the woods or gliding over chewed-up tarmac, and more than happy to carry all your bikepacking bags on a longer trip, this is the bike that can do it all.

Constructed from Reynolds 921 Stainless, the frame and forks are extremely corrosion-resistant and very, very strong - Reynolds themselves claim this to be probably the highest-strength cold-worked tube set in the bicycle industry.

Hand-built in our workshop here in Dorset, the frame and forks can have as many braze-ons for racks, mudguards and bottle cage bosses as you want. And the great thing about 921 Stainless is that it is left unpainted, only polished, meaning you can add more braze-ons at a later date without the need for an expensive respray afterwards.

The Pathfinder can be built up pretty much any way you want it - 1x or 2x, belt-drive or a chain-driven system, with a Rohloff Speedhub, single-speed, a flat-bar fun-packed super commuter or flared drop-bar gravel grinder, with S&S Couplings if required so you can take it on a plane with you… or if there’s something else you have in mind, just drop us a line to see if we can customise a Pathfinder specifically with your requirements.

Current lead time is approximately 16 weeks. Please get in touch after you place your order to discuss any requirements you might have. We can also offer a complete build, just let us know and we can spec your Pathfinder bike completely as you want to have it.
