Description
rim brakes for gravel bike Spelljammer*This is a pre book. We are expecting frames to arrive late June early July. Since the order is already placed, what we have coming is it, so if you want one act soon before your size is sold out* The Spelljammer is one of those wish fulfillment bikes. We made it simply because it's a bike we all wanted in our stables and because we could. We took a bit of inspiration from Jeff's beloved classic canti Space Horse, the versatility of the iconic Cross
All of our production bikes are tested to the most stringent ISO standards for their category. In order to pass testing, a disc brake bike requires thicker (heavier) fork legs and chainstays than a rim brake bike. By utilizing rim brakes we are able to use lighter tubes for a more compliant and smoother ride. Plus, we already have several worthy disc brake bikes in our lineup, and we do love the classic aesthetics of a good rim brake bicycle.
On the island of Taiwan there is literally only one person left in the trade who does the kind of delicate filing required for these large fillets to look good. They are getting up there in age and are semi-retired at this point. They've also gotten really into farming and are now only working around their harvest / planting schedule. They've agreed to do one last batch, which is why we have to make this happen now and can't do it again.
In addition to the labor intensive nature of the frame construction, the fork adds considerable cost to the bike. To match the character of the frame, we didn't want to use any old off-the-shelf crown. Instead we contacted Pacenti and sought permission to use their gorgeous PBP fork crown. In our minds it's THE rando fork crown. The crowns aren't cheap, but they are ideal for this application.
*We asked Blaise for notes on his decision making and he just gave us some bullet points, some are covered in the features, the ones that aren't are below...*
Canti brakes
• Allows use of a lighter tube set for a more comfortable, compliant ride
• There are so many cool vintage parts that need a good frame to call home
• We left the rear cable stop off incase you want to use Vee’s
• The brake posts are spaced slightly farther apart for modern wider rims
Dropouts
• We used the same casting as the original Space Horse, and were able to add our lightning moon logo
• Single speed / fixed gear compatible
• 132.5mm spacing for more hub and chainline options
• Able to fine tune chainstay length for riding preference
Cable routing
• No downtube braze-ons means nothing to cut your knees on when running single speed, fixed or 1x
• Internal brake routing for frame bag mounting
• Full housing for better all weather performance
• BB cable stop included for front derailleur if desired
• More fork offset with more compliant, extra curvy fork blades
• Lower trail for better handling with front loads
• Slightly longer top tube in case you want to run a flat bar
• Smaller sizes optimized for more stand over and no toe overlap with 700’s
• Clearance for bigger tires while keeping a spirited ride characteristic
Braze ons
• F&R rack mounts for light touring and general cargo carrying
• Mid-blade mounts for low riders or platform racks, 3 pack mounts for cargo or H2O
• Underside fender mounts front and rear for clean metal fender installation
• Internal dynamo routing on fork with exit placed for crown or rack mounted lights
• Pump peg cause they’re classy as heck (Editors Note, Blaise didn't say "heck")
