We were watching Brandon Webster’s video bike check and noticed he was running a new frame from Macneil called the “Default” frame. We hadn’t seen that one before, so we figured it was a good idea to get a closer look! This frame is made from 4130 Sanko Japanese chromoly tubing with a 75-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 11.75″ bottom bracket height, 9″ standover height and a 13.6″ chain stay length. The Default frame features top and down tube gussets, an externally machined and heat-treated MID bottom bracket, a heat-treated integrated head tube, a Macneil logo on the seat stay bridge, a wider rear end to fit the 2.40″ tires, an integrated seat post clamp, removable brake mounts and heat-treated Micro drop outs.
The Default frame comes in 20.75″ and 21″ top tube lengths, a weight of 4.9 lbs. (20.75″) and color options of ED black, translucent red and silver. This frame is available now through all shops and mail-orders that carry Macneil worldwide.
