ALUMAX II (pre order December)

taking pre orders in December for 2nd batch that will differ in terms of tire clearance this pictured first generation.  ALUMAX II will have cantilever brakes and will be designed around 700x45-700x55

the AluMax this is my idea of a timeless high performance gravel bike that will retain its value and last decades longer than the carbon options available on the market.  Drawing inspiration from the u.p.,crux, mog and Charlie Cunningham --- this small run is what i came up with --- with hopes of seeing them circulate on ebay 30 years from now.
