One bike to rule them all.
The original all-terrain powerhouse, the Croix de Fer 20, is back and more versatile than ever!
Whether you're tackling your daily commute during the week or embarking on epic multi-terrain adventures over the weekend, the Croix de Fer 20 is ready for it all. Its adaptable nature and rugged build mean it's ready to conquer any challenge you throw its way.
At the core of this bike is the tried-and-true Reynolds 725 frameset, known for its reliability and performance across all surfaces.
We’ve made a few thoughtful upgrades to enhance its versatility. With clearance for up to 45mm rear and 50mm front tyres on the included 700c rims, the Croix de Fer 20 is more than ready for any terrain. If you’re feeling adventurous, swap to 650B wheels with up to 44mm rear and 50mm front tyres for added flexibility.
Key features like standard QR dropouts ensure compatibility with your 9mm wheelsets, giving you years of smooth performance. The practical design doesn’t stop there—this bike is packed with useful features.
The drivetrain has been upgraded to Shimano’s GRX, boasting a 46/30T double chainset, 11-34T cassette, and RX400 derailleurs for consistent, smooth shifting.
Other notable features:
- Tubeless Ready Rims and Tyres: for fewer flats and better performance
- Additional Mounts: Including a third bottle mount, rack and guard mounts, and fixing points for Anything Cages on the forks
- Versatility: 650B and 700c wheel compatibility for varied riding styles
The Croix de Fer 20 is your go-anywhere, do-it-all bike, ready to tackle whatever the road (or trail) throws at you.
