Wilde Rambler - All-Arounder / Gravel

The Rambler continues a fine tradition in cycling, the drop bar all-arounder. It's capable of gravel centuries, quick road loops, light touring, b-roads, and of course daily life. The Rambler is a fully modern adaptation of the genre with disc brakes, thru axles and generous tire clearance. The world is vast and so are the possibilities, the Rambler invites you to fully explore them all. It has all the mounts a rider could want and geometry that is nimble while still being comfortable for long days in the saddle. As with all Wilde's we prefer bikes with higher stack heights, as our philosophy is that comfortable is fast. Being a production bike, we are able to offer this promise at a more affordable price point through our partnership with Taiwan's legendary Maxway factory. It comes in four sizes and is paired with our segmented steel fork. The steel fork does have a slightly longer axle to crown measurement than the Wayfinder which gives the bike a bit higher trail number and a slightly elevated bottom bracket height, both are bonuses when it comes to riding more challenging off-road terrain or pairing with 650b size wheels. FRAME - Tire clearance 700c X 50mm or 650b X 2.2" - Three pack mounts on top and bottom of down tube, bottle boss on seat tube - Fender mounts - Rack mounts - Compatible with 2x and 1x drivetrains - Frame weight: 5lbs (medium) STEEL FORK - Fender mounts - Double eyelet fork end - Three-pack mounts with center braze-on doubling as a mid-- blade mount - Internal dynamo routing - Mounts for Surly 8 and 24-pack racks - Tire clearance 700c X 50mm or 650b X 2.2" GEOMETRY Gravel geo with all-day comfort in mind. The taller stack height, slightly higher bottom bracket, and chatter-absorbing chainstays make the Rambler excellent for all-day explorations on pavement, dirt, and double track. Roadish head tube and seat tube angles keep everything quick and maneuverable. TUBING Wilde TLC - Tough, Light, Compliant Our own proprietary double-butted, chromoly tubeset. TLC stands for tough, light, and compliant which are the characteristics we select for. On each model and size, we select the optimum blend of tubing diameters, wall thickness, and butting profiles to yield a frame that is both built to last, as light as practical, and comfortable for the rider.
