Introducing the Fairdale Elevator.
The Fairdale Elevator is a BMX-inspired, full chromoly all-arounder with a geometry that is focused on nimble maneuverability and predictable climbing and descending. While many modern bikes are long and low, the Elevator’s unique ride-feel will let you easily throw in a manual or re-adjust your position on a line, thanks to the super short 406mm chainstay length.
As always, making the ride fun is our main priority. This is a frame that lets you feel like a rider again instead of being a passenger. Proudly sticking to Fairdale’s user-friendly approach to frame construction, its straight seat tube will allow you to fully insert a dropper post of the maximum possible drop, and the Elevator’s removable, external cable routing is a breeze for assembly and maintenance.
Frame kit includes sealed FSA Orbit ITA headset (not shown), UDH derailleur hanger, and Boost thru-axle.
