Páramo
Inspired by Nature
"Inspired by one of the most fascinating landscapes—the Páramo. This unique ecosystem is not only spectacular but also enigmatic. Its high elevation, continuous precipitation, precarious roads, and relentless winds create the perfect proving ground for our gravel-specific frameset. Built to thrive in the most demanding conditions, the Páramo is ready for wherever the adventure leads." Santiago Toro - Founder
Designed, Built, and Tested in Colombia
Colombia. TBP (To be Paved). Our country has proved to be the perfect design and test ground for the Paramo platform. Remote, chunky roads, often the sole connectors for towns, demand comfort on the bike, but this country is never flat. There is always a considerable climb to tackle, so power transfer and agility have always been on the DNA of every single frame we've designed.
Designed to work with Nature. Not Against it.
The Páramo Family: Gravel is as Versatile as Specific
Over the years, gravel has evolved into many sub-disciplines, or as we like to call them, "use cases." For us, the perfect gravel bike is the convergence point of basically three main variables: You (the rider), where you want to ride it, and the technical capabilities of the bike (specs). That is why we have created slight variations of our Páramo platform that are meant to fit specific riders' needs better.
The spice? Always consistent within all the variations... pure Colombian flavor
Páramo Integrated
Featuring the ENVE In-Route System, the Paramo Integrated offers seamless integration. However, the integration goes beyond cable routing, accommodating wider tires and incorporating fork mounts as standard, T47 bottom bracket, and UDH dropouts.
Framesets start from: $3850
Páramo Ultra
Building on the versatility of the Páramo, the Páramo Ultra boasts a longer wheelbase, bigger tire clearance of up to 700×55, and a geometry that brings higher comfort on long-distance treks or that impossible adventure route. Carry all the essentials with more fork, rack, and fender mounts options. Optional Sliding Dropout option available at an extra charge
Framesets start from: $3750
Páramo
The original model is up to date, meeting modern gravel standards while keeping non-integrated cable routing practicality and compatibility.
Are you thinking about running standard stem/handlebar setups? Do you still love mechanical groupsets? You don't need massive tire clearances? Then... this is the right model for you.
Framesets start from: $3650

Our Design Process
Custom Paint Schemes
Is there anything more personal than paint? We thought so. Colombia has given us incredible inspiration for each of our bikes, and we are ready to help you co-design them.
Custom Geometry
We are all different, not only in our tastes but also in our capabilities and body dimensions; that is why we have a custom program that will make this bike feel like it should: Perfect.
Component Selection
Components play a significant role in the result of a bike; that is why we get involved in the conversation, guiding you toward the best bike possible.
