The Pass Hunter frameset is the speediest of our offerings and is designed for light-packing adventures over mountain passes, gravel riding, 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 design. 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 handling simply exquisite. The bike is feels planted and comfortable and has flex in all the right places.
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 is designed to be used with cargo cages, fenders, front racks like our Constructeur, Rando, and Flat Pack Rack, amongst others.
