Our CX frames are our best sellers, mainly because of their ability to be 'the' bike for so many different riders. They're so versatile... Road bike, trail bike, touring bike, kick-ass city bike and of course cyclo-cross.

Cyclo-cross bikes like the early Double Cross frame were the ride-it-all bikes of their time allowing cyclists to use them as road bikes, light touring, off-roading, as well as in CX events. With its advent and current stage of development, the gravel bike has become the new king of "ride-it-all".
With just a few changes in BB height and head tube angle, we made the Double Cross more stable for gravel and touring, more fun on trails, and still a versatile and fast commuter.
Comes in 10 sizes: 42cm up to 66cm

The Fog Cutter is an endurance road/road sport design. We designed it to fit fatter tires, but its geometry makes it handle like a road bike rather than CX or gravel bike. It can float you over chewed up asphalt better than most bikes in this category. This is the frame you want for grand fondos, long days in the saddle and the most demanding commutes.
• Tire clearance for 700c x38mm with fenders (some front derailleurs will limit tire clearance) and 650b x 42mm • Fits 1-1/8" headset (EC34/28.6|EC34/30 headsets)

The original inspiration for the Wolverine was “monster cross”, but it is seriously so much more. Its geometry is stable enough for off road touring, but sporty enough for all-around adventure. The primary differences between the version 3.0 Wolverine and the v. 4 Type-A and B is a new 46cm size, an extra set of water bottle bosses, and additional stack height on most sizes.The Type-A ALSO adopts more modern standards such as 142mm rear thru-axle and a 44mm headtube that will fit 1-1/8 straight steerer or tapered steerer with the proper headset type. NO frame break for Belt-Drive. (See chart for other differences between A and B)

The original inspiration for the Wolverine was “monster cross”, but it is seriously so much more. Its geometry is stable enough for off road touring, but sporty enough for all-around adventure and gravel riding. With its sliding dropouts, you can run single-speed, derailleur gearing or hub gearing (Rohloff, etc). With a split seatstay, it is compatible with the Gates Carbon Belt Drive.
2023 brings our version 4.1 B-Type that adopts flat mount brakes on both frame and fork. Version 4.0 which uses the IS brake mount will be available most of 2023. Flat mounts have become the primary standard for road brakes, but IS mounts are still more convenient for builds running flat bars, MTB drivetrains, or larger disc rotors
(Also check out the Wolverine v.4.1 Type-A, which adopts slightly more modern standards! See chart in photo gallery for their differences)
