High quality steel touring fork
The Heritage features a robust steel fork with cable routing that will not obstruct your pannier rack or mudguard mounts.
Tig welded construction
Tig welding is an art. The welds on our Heritage are impossibly neat and brilliantly finished. This means that minimum weight is added through the welding process but ensures the join is strong.
Stable riding under a heavy load
The Heritage features a longer wheelbase for a stable ride when fully laden, whilst also providing extra room for loading up with pannier bags.
Custom rolled Columbus Spirit tubing
We develop our own custom tube shapes for each model of steel frame in collaboration with the world's oldest tubing manufacturer, Columbus, who we have worked with for several decades. The tubes are seamless, which means the tube is formed by stretching it without welding a joint. The tubes are triple-butted with a high tensile strength, and hardened using precipitation, enabling the tube to have an excellent surface and strength to weight ratio. The tubes are head treated to improve strength and resistance to damage. The nearest comparable tubing from Reynolds is 853.
Three bottle cage mounts
Stay hydrated through the day. There are up to three locations to place water bottles or storage bottles. Maximising the space on the frame, no matter where you are you will safe in the knowledge you've got supplies.
