Now with tapered headtube for the ability to use a steel or carbon fork.
The adventure, thrill, freedom, and exploration — the Fugitive embodies all facets of the limitless escape. We designed it to be a smooth, long-distance touring bike with a balanced geometry and large tire clearance, giving it the dual intent of a gravel bike. The finished product was a bicycle destined for life on the open road, even where there may not be an actual road.
Made from supreme quality VariWall THRMLX tubing by Waterford Precision Cycles in Wisconsin, the Fugitive runs a disc brake and shows off a massive tire-with-fender clearance of up to 700c x 52mm with Waterford fork option (See tire clearance specs below for 650b option). We included rack and fender mounts on the upper seat stay, eyelets on the custom rear dropouts, as well as water bottle braze-ons on the seat tube, down tube, and down tube underside, plus two more with the standard fork option.
More than a touring or gravel bike, the Fugitive can take you on miles and miles of road and landscape you’ve never seen before. Plan a 1,500 mile excursion with a friend, or just take off and ride for a day. On the bike, on the run, you may never discover more, you may never feel freer.
Current turn-around for a frameset is 8-10, a complete bike is 10-12 weeks until shipment. This could be extended depending on options chosen. Please ask.

*The frame is made by Waterford, the base fork is not. The base fork is a high quality steel fork we import from Taiwan. There is an option for a Waterford fork upgrade in the kit builder for an additional cost.
