Moots Routt RSL

One of the advantages of ordering your new bike from Bespoke is that we don't just ensure the perfect fit, we also tailor every aspect of the build to your individual requirements.

In this instance, the rider wanted to re-use the Dura-Ace groupset and Ksyrium wheels from their previous bike (and why not - they're proven performers and built to last!).

The new frame is stunning in Moots' Signature Series "Birch" finish, which combines brushing, bead blasting, etching and anodising to produce a technically complex but visually harmonious tour de force, inspired by their local forests. As always there are the beautiful precision welds that characterise the Moots Ti frames, each individually handmade in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

The US-made theme continues with a full complement of ENVE contact points, another great match for a titanium frame; light, stiff and ultra reliable. It'll come as no surprise to find Chris King providing the headset and BB, their durability and engineering excellence is unrivalled.

Similarly Silca's Sicuro Ti bottle cages are precision engineered in the USA, with welds that mirror the quality of the Moots frame. Finally, PDW supply the metal mudguards - stylish and functional, and beautifully made.
