Our signature drop-bar bike packing frameset built with big miles and big plans in mind. It's a true go-anywhere, do-anything machine. If you can conceive it you can achieve it aboard the Dream Engine.
Every Dream Engine frame is handmade in the USA and was designed with our thoughts on back country exploration, Tour Divide racing, fire road epics and endless singletrack ribbons. Of course it can also crush gravel and tour on all surfaces as well.
It fits a very large tire, has boatloads of mud clearance, and was built with all-day and multi-day comfort in mind.
You’ll find a full suite of features that include:
- Three pack mounts on top and bottom of the down tube, bottle mount on the seat tube, top tube bag mounts, and rack and fender capability.
- The frame is built around the Curve Seek 430 fork which has three-pack mounts on each leg and internal dynamo and brake routing. We like this fork because it's short axle to crown allows for a larger main triangle, which allows for a bigger frame bag and more carrying capacity. Each three pack mount can hold 8kg according to the manufacturer.
- For cable management, we us our modular system which allows the cleanest possible appearance and can be customized for AXS or 1X mountain setups. We use full-round cable guides on the stays as we find plastic zip ties on high-end bikes to be an inelegant compromise.
- Clearance for 29x2.6" tires in rear and 29x3.0" in front.
