Even the most dreaded of Monday, mornings can be alleviated with fun exercise and the fresh air of commuting by bicycle. Realistically, you can ride any bike to class or the office, but we created the Betline to be the ultimate commute bicycle - easy, quiet and maintenance-free. With the Beltline, there are o more excuse. Featuring the combo of a Gates Carbon Drive belt and Alfine 8-speed internal hub, the drivetrain is durable, fast grease-free.
The ride is impressively quiet and shifting is consistently smoth you won't run in to any of the mess or frustrations of traditional bike chains and gears. The Beltiline's disc brake setup allows for supreme stopping in all types of commuting weather and the entire bike is helmed by the comfort and responsiveness of American-made steel.
Though billed as the perfect commuter, the Beltline isn't just anchored to the daily grind. It's also ideal for relaxing evening rides or Sunday trips to the beach or through the park. Want to trek further? The carbon belt drive offers the dependability and strength necessary for even the most ambitious cross-country excursions. The Beltline is your everiday bike: take it out, take it far, take a day off and ride.
All Beltiline builds include Alfine 6v dynamo hub and a Busch & Muller Avy N Plus headlight for no additional charge. Care to add the rear dynamo light? Contact us!

*Due to the unavailability of True Temper Tubing we have made the choice to use Vari-Wall THRMLX for our new tubeset. Vari-wall THRMLX is a extremely high quality American made cromoly that we believe to be a superior replacement for the OX tubing.
Cyclocross racing is all about returning to the joy of riding a bike in all kinds of conditions and terrain, riding like you were a kid again. Your bike needs to be pliable to carve through corners, yet stiff enough to crush the start. Only modern steel can do all of that for you, and we designed the Mettle to be the best cyclocross bike you could ride. Off-camber hills and tight corners become minor obstacles as your storm your way to the finish line. The frame construction begins in Wisconsin, handmade by Waterford Precision Cycles using True Temper OX Platinum steel. To add race stiffness to the lively feel of steel, we increased the diameter of the top and down tube and tapered the head tube to accommodate stiff, lightweight carbon forks. Yet the inherent flexibility of quality steel lets you carry unrivaled speed through corners. The end result of the OX Platinum steel frame of the Mettle is the smoothest, most reliable, and sweetest-riding cross race bike you’ll ever carry over a barrier.
Current turn-around for a frameset or complete bike is 8-10 weeks until shipment. This could be extended depending on options chosen. Please ask.
