No. 22 Bicycles:
"No. 22 strives to create forward-thinking, feature rich titanium frames tempered by a legacy of experience." - [ Ссылка ]

In this video, JOM Of the Gravel Cyclist crew is joined by Mike of No. 22 Bicycles, for a rundown of the company's extensive range of bespoke titanium bikes, including many new features for 2023.

Continued from Above:
"Our frames are made entirely in-house in our Johnstown, New York, production facility. Our small team of craftsmen have over 50 years of titanium framebuilding experience between them, which comes through in every frame we build."

A Better Bike is Standard:
"Unlike many builders, we don't charge extra for things that should be included from the start. From our decal-free finishes, to butted, size-specific tubesets, to thru axles and oversized head tubes, every No. 22 is made to be the best bike possible for its intended purpose. Better performance should never be an extra-cost option."

Size-Specific, Fully Butted Tubing:
"The average weight of a rider on a 50cm frame is vastly different from the average weight of a 60cm frame. Despite this, many manufacturers use the same stiffness target across all frame sizes of a given model. At No. 22 we tailor tube diameters, wall thickness and butting for every individual frame size."

"The result: smaller sizes are lighter and have a smoother ride quality, while larger sizes are stiff enough for larger riders."

Bespoke Dropouts:
"The relationship between the wheels, chainstays and dropouts of a frame are among the most important factors determining a bike’s ride quality, with dropouts playing a key role."

"Every No. 22 uses a bespoke dropout of our own design. From the Reactor’s unique double-hood that accepts massively oversized chainstays and svelte seatstays, to our disc models’ thru axle dropouts designed to align perfectly with flat-mount calipers and X-12 thru axles, the dropouts on our frames are a perfect example of our sweat-the-details framebuilding method."
