The Smoothie HP is the “high protein” version of our Smoothie road frame that was part of our line for almost 20 years. Extra large diameter, thin-wall Tange Prestige chromoly coupled with modern touches like thru-axles and compact geometry give this frame increased power transfer and road feel while still delivering a composed and plush ride at all speeds. The re-designed geometry combines a comfortable higher stack with a shorter wheelbase that rewards skillful riders.

• Tange Prestige heat-treated double butted CrMo steel
• Extra-oversized down tube and chainstays for greater pedaling stiffness
• Ovalized top tube for increased lateral stiffness and vertical compliance
• Size specific tubing, larger downtubes on larger sized frames
• Comfortable high stack matched with a tighter wheelbase than the typical big brand endurance road frame
• Replaceable modular dropouts (12 x 142mm bolt-on thru-axle, fits flat mount disc brake)
• BSA Threaded bottom bracket shell
• Rear rack/fender mounts
• Max tire size: 700x32c with fenders
• Two water bottle boss sets
