A thoroughly modern Croix de Fer, built ready for the next decade. Build entirely from 725 tubing, Reynolds mandrel butt and heat-treat this alloy so that thinner walls can be used compared to non-heat-treated steels. This makes it  our ultimate workhorse, delivering a refined ride quality and for a modest weight penalty, keeps the pricing keen. Completely modernised, the 725 frameset adds 12mm thru-axles for compatibility with the latest wheelsets. Major updates continue with the ability to run 42mm tyres on 700c rims, or 47mm tyres on a 650B wheelset. Flat mount disc brakes, internal rear brake hose routing, a third bottle mount, rack and guard mounts and fixings for Anything Cages on the forks complete the package. Whether you’re spending the money you’ve saved on a fancier wheelset, or a long weekend away on the bike, the CdF has got you covered.
