Big and Tall Bicycle

The Team is our performance powerhouse Big and Tall Bicycle. An all around gravel road bike with electronic shifting, hydraulic disc brakes, Shimano Ultegra Di2 components, Enve Carbon fork and handbuilt bombproof wheels. This bike is made for gravel racing, commuting to work, touring across the country, fitness riding, and even racing road or cyclocross. Electronic shifting is an amazing feature to make this bike the ultimate big and tall bicycle. The ease of shifting is mind-blowing, and you will almost never need to adjust the derailleurs. Smart shifters are programmable via your PC (or mobile phone with additional D-fly unit) to customize the way you shift. Hydraulic disc brakes provide greater power and control for heavy riders for steep mountain passes and long descents. The titanium frame is built super tough for big guys and comes in a L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, and 4XL for riders from 5’10” to 7’3″. The Team comes with proportional length cranks for optimal pedaling efficiency, and extra wide handlebars to fit broad shoulders. The wheels are custom built right here at our shop in Boulder, Colorado using our own Clydesdale hubs that are rated for riders up to 450lbs! We build these wheels using 36 DT swiss competition double butted spokes per wheel and DT swiss brass pro-lock nipples to keep your wheels true for many miles. Each wheel is precision built by professional wheelbuilders in our shop using high-tech spoke wrenches, wheel building stands, and spoke tension meters.

Available Sizes: L, XL, 2XL/3XL/4XL

WHY TITANIUM

At Clydesdale Bikes, we’re constantly looking for innovative ways to bring you custom builds that are lighter weight than anything else on the market. One of our go-to materials, titanium, is a top choice! It’s half the weight of steel so we can build bigger frames with larger tubing and still guarantee your bike will be lighter than anything else! We prefer larger diameter tubing for our bikes because you get a comfortable and compliant ride that still provides great stiffness for ideal power transfer to ensure you’re not working too hard over long rides.

Titanium also has plenty of other benefits, like fatigue resistance and strength for smaller tubing, better absorption of road buzz and bumps on gravel, and a corrosion-free tendency to support safe internal cable routing. We also love that we can paint or plate titanium to customize our bikes even more.

When compared with other materials, like steel or aluminum, titanium always comes out on top. It can flex further than both without permanent damage and withstand intense riding, as long as it doesn’t reach its fatigue limit. Many other materials, like carbon fiber, are vulnerable to serious damage, like notch damage, which can cause catastrophic failure in a bike frame. Titanium however, could literally last you a lifetime – if not longer!
