OPEN U.P. Frameset RTP
OPEN U.P. Frameset RTP
FAST, FUN, FREEDOM
The first U.P. combined road bike speed plus go-anywhere capabilities to start a whole new category. Now original U.P. features such as dual wheel size compatibility and a dropped chainstay are the standard for performance gravel bikes.
The third generation U.P. & U.P.P.E.R. frames are lighter, nimbler and more fun than ever. They also still pass our ultimate test: We only offer frames we want to ride ourselves.
And because we’re “working hard to stay small”, you always speak directly with the people who developed the bikes.
WHAT IS THE U.P.(P.E.R.)?
- With road tires, it is a very fast road bike
- With big road/cross/gravel tires (32-40mm), it’s a go-anywhere bike perfect for mixed surface rides and most gravel routes
- With 650b mountain bike tires, it's unstoppable on very tough terrain yet much faster on pavement than you'd expect thanks to the road position
So the position lets you get out of town and reach the gravel/dirt/trails quickly (unlike a mountain bike). Space for big tires lets you tackle any route (unlike a road bike). And you can do that with one type of tire for everything or finetune your ride with multiple wheelsets or tires.
Note: this product may require a handling time of 1-3 business days

² | Standover varies with tire size and is measured to the top of the toptube directly above the BB. |
³ | Normalized dimensions to compare to frames with standard seattube instead of our zero-setback seattube design. |
