ESCAPE The Escape has become one of our most popular models over the last few years, and is certainly the favoured choice amongst our staff. Many of our colleagues ride an Escape daily on a mixture of road and off road over the bridleways and singletrack of the South Downs. It’s also proven further afield, for adventure racing and touring worldwide.
The bike features generous tyre clearance for 700c x 50mm or 650b x 58mm tyres, and geometry optimised for stability on challenging terrain. There are mounts for mudguards, a pannier rack, and fork mounted cargo cages, along with a versatile cable routing system to keep things tidy yet accessible whether you’re using 1x,2x, mechanical, Di2 or Wireless groupsets.
Like our other Core range models, the Escape features size specific tubing. We specify our custom 3Al/2.5V tube set with varying tube diameters and wall thickness to suit different size frames. This ensures rider across the size range enjoy a consistent ride feel, with optimised stiffness and comfort.
As the Escape is aimed at off road and endurance riding, it features a higher stack height than some of our other models, ensuring sublime ride comfort over long distances. If you plan to spend most of your time riding on the road then we suggest you also check out our hugely versatile Etape, plus we also offer a bike very similar to the Escape that’s handcrafted from steel tubing – the Endeavour.
