Pete's Eurocross



This is an archive page, but this model is still available. Just ask!

The Steelman Eurocross is the undisputed ruler of lightweight steel cyclo-cross frames. Its design is revered by many (and copied by a few) for its precise handling, light weight, and durability. Built from our magical blend of Dedacciai 14.5 heat treated steel, the Eurocross has earned a healthy pedigree including six National cross titles.

The design basis is the Euro cyclo-cross racing style, enhanced with input form several U.S. cross stars and plenty of Steelman technical know-how. The result is a pure cross racing frame that handles transitional terrain (and singletrack) like a thoroughbred.

The Eurocross is light so portaging won't wear you down, and its durable design will take you over the obstacles longer than most. The ride character is lively, nimble, and stable. In essence, it's a road frame with increased bottom bracket height, a slightly longer wheelbase, clearance for 38MM knobby tires, and cantilever brakes.

Integral to the Eurocross frame is its fork. The Steelman cross fork is a work of structural art, designed to ride smoothly and stay on track when it's rough or muddy. We build every one of our steel forks in house using techniques and materials developed to withstand the rigors of cross riding.

Every Eurocross is now built to order so we can fine tune the geometry and ride to each customers requirements.

If you take the cyclo-cross season seriously and you simply have to ride the best, pick up a Eurocross. Average frame weight is 3.6 pounds. frame specs
