Piolet by Velo Orange: Your Rugged Bikepacking Companion

Looking to tackle some touring or single day excursions off the beaten path? The Piolet is an adventurous bikepacking and rough-road riding frame in a classically styled frameset with all the modern accoutrement. Designed for off-road touring on dirt and gravel roads, double track, and single track, this rugged frame is built to be sturdy, simple, and highly capable.

Key Features:

• Design: The cool mono-stay wishbone seatstays complement the handsome segmented fork.
• Mounting Options: Covered in bosses for easily mounting racks, water bottles, gear cages, and fenders. Perfect for bikepacking or traditional rack and bag touring.
• Handling: Handles like an XC mountain bike but with a touring twist. Feels natural with drop bars or flat bars. The non-suspension corrected fork offers predictable handling with or without a load.
