A steel hardtail for anything from flowing singletrack, to epic all day rides. Our good friend Joe Murray, mountain bike hall of famer, two-time U.S. mountain bike champion, and probably the most respected name in steel hardtail design, helped us design the Flo. The goal was to build the ultimate go-anywhere-in-the-world ride. With Joe’s frame geometry and Reynolds’ 631 air-hardened steel tubing, the Flo delivers a ride that’s incredibly smooth, yet lively. Fifteen minutes is all it takes to pack the Flo into a suitcase for easy travel. You’ll never have to leave your mountain bike at home again.
