Tripster frame
The concept of the DECADE range is based upon innovation, detailing, high quality and above all adaptability. The new Tripster is a unique frameset, designed as a ‘fast commuter’, but it can be built in a number of different ways to exactly suit the riding style of the individual. Use it with 700c wheels, road tyres and drops , or 26” with road tyres [we recommend 1.5 minimum, 1.9 max. to keep the BB height up] and flats, or 700c and flats see here, or set it up with 33x700c ‘cross tyres as a weekend racer or real on/off road commuter!

The 7005 series alloy, double butted frame has it’s geometry based on our extremely successful Crosslight frames, but with tweaks such as longer head tubes to make it more ‘commuter friendly’. The frame has an ‘inboard’ mounted disc brake to keep it cleanly out of the way and the cables all run along the down tube, adding to the uncluttered look and feel of this frameset.
[Avid cable operated calipers are ideal for this frame or Tektro ‘Lyra’ if you are on a budget].
There is plenty of clearance for larger road tyres [700c x 33 and 26” x 1.5] and the disc brakes mean swapping wheels sizes is not a problem.
Specially designed dropouts [135mm hub spacing] have seperate rack and mudguard mounts and there are eyeletted bridges for proper attachment.
The new carbon DC19 fork has disc mount and mudguard eyelets. It delivers an extremely smooth ride and precise steering.
