Singletrack, dirt roads, city parks, even the most remote backcountry trails – are you roaming or racing? Search A CUES is ready for your next adventure with modern gravel geo, a lightweight aluminum frame, carbon fork with adventure mounts, Shimano CUES 2x10 drivetrain, tire clearance up to 50c, and full-coverage fender, toptube bag, and water bottle mounts.
Search A CUES features new-school gravel geo fit for a fast, lively, confident ride on any terrain. With a taller headtube, slacker head angle, and longer reach, it’s more stable on rough terrain and ready to tackle steeper grades with ease.
The updated, longer fork adds stability and new-school geometry is compatible with suspension forks if you want to add some extra cushion. The frame is UDH compatible and supports fitments for all the latest wide range 1x drivetrain technologies.
Fully guided cable routing and a fully threaded BSA bottom bracket makes maintenance a breeze.
