The Cumberland... our main stay in the world of gravel and adventure cycling. With a geometry that delivers predictable steering, a high bottom bracket for clearance and robust clearance for larger tires (up to 45C), you're ready for everything. Rack and fork mounts adorne both the fork and rear end of the frame setting you up for adventure and fully loaded configurations. This is serious gravel....
The frame is a blend of Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber offering resilency, lite weight but dampening so when you hit the gravel, you don't feel the high frequency chatter. Additionally, the down tube octagonal profile delivers a strong back bone to your riding adventures whether you're riding unburdened or loaded up to bear with bags and racks. The headtube in all sizes allows for generous room to get you into the perfect position with a larger height than many frames out there. In gravel, comfort is as important as performance.
The frame weighs in at 1250g for the 52cm frameset and features a 27.2 seat post, fully integrated headset and cable routing and a BB386 bottom bracket. We recommend mating your bike with a Carolina Precision Components Irish seatpost. 140mm rear and 160mm front disc configurations leave you with the most predictable braking surfaces out there.
The frame is available as a frame set or complete bike inclusive of build packages from Sram and Campagnolo. Frame sizes include X-Small, Small, Medium and Large. When sizing, pay close attention to the top tube length and head tubes as they are the key factors in any gravel frame.
To inquire on purchasing a frame or completely built package, contact us at info@irishcycles.com. We will direct you to a local shop that can provide you assistance, work with you over the phone/email, or, if you're in the Carolinas, work to meet you in person. In the case of phone/email builds, we will work thru extensive phone consulatation to make sure your fit and requirements are met. Please note: all frame or complete bicycle purchases will require a phone consultation in order to ensure the right fit and specifications for you.
