Yep, you guessed it, cyclocross season is just a handful of weeks away and I know some people already "chompin at the bits" to get on the starting line. This is the start up of a new cross frame for Eric, a California based cross racer. This is gonna be a tight package built with OX Platinum on the main triangle and for clearance we are using some S-bend chain and seat stays. The down tube is a super-light 31.8mm and is as light as an S3 down tube. With an effective 52cm top tube and a 50cm seat tube this may be the lightest cross frame that I have ever built, we'll just have to wait and see what the scales say. Anyway, this is a pure, straight-forward cross racer, nothing extra hanging on that could slow him down. Build it strong, build it light, build it right! Stay tuned for more.
