A race-ready steel hardtail for anything from epic all day rides
to *4 hour marathons that end with the sun creeping its orange
fingers over the horizon. Our good friend Joe Murray, mountain bike
hall of famer, two- time U.S. mountain bike champion, and probably
the most respected name in steel hardtail design, helped us design
the Flo. The goal was to build the ultimate
go-anywhere-in-the-world ride. Best of all, the Flo packs into its
own suitcase for easy travel. So you’ll never have to leave your
bike at home again. Upgraded for ***1.
