Details
When the Stigmata was resurrected in 2015, we fused a
number of MTB standards and design features to create our spin on the modern CX
bike. Something must have clicked, because within months of launch it raced to
victory at the legendary Three Peaks, and has continued to contend at elite
cyclocross races around the world.
Nowadays, the internally routed disc brakes, generous tire clearance and
thru-axles approach that made the Stigmata famous have become more of a norm,
so we took a fresh look at which standards the riders of tomorrow wanted access
to today.
Threaded bottom brackets remain a perennial favorite across our entire line
thanks to their proven robust, cost-effective and compatible design. “If it
ain’t broke…” ...and it never is. Fender mounts add a bit of CYA, and highlight
the Stigmata’s ever-widening scope of purpose. We added to that with three
bottle cage mounts so that the frame can still hold at least one normal bottle
even when running a front triangle bag.
Deeper adventures, bigger tires perhaps? The frame now clears up to a 45mm 700c
or a 2.1” 650b tire. Marry the latter to our Force/X01 AXS mashup kit and
you’ve got yourself the kind of drop-bar singletrack rallycat we can all get on
board with.
And when it comes to good old-fashioned off-road etiquette, the Stigmata’s had
some coaching at the Highball school of stiffness, handling, and offroad feel.
The carbon layup borrows knowledge gained from not just the Highball, but also
Danny MacAskill’s trials bike, to produce a ride so law-abiding you’d think HR
had sent it on a compliance training course.
Geometry plays a big part here too, so we’ve made tweaks to improve handling
for smaller riders and reduce toe overlap. The reworking of the 52/54cm frames
means the Stigmata now comfortably suits riders from 5’3” and up. Meanwhile
different fork offsets—50mm for the 52-54cm sizes, and 45mm for the 56-61cm
sizes—help ensure your little piggies don’t go to market on the front wheel.
Topped off with tidy details like 12mm front axle, flat mount brakes and
build-specific Reserve wheel packages, the Stigmata is designed to let you
decide whatever the heck you want this category to be.
