Andes Description

In the heart of Colombia, where mountains shape the land and spirit, lies the Andes—a place where adventure is a way of life. It’s here that we crafted the Andes Brevet Bike, designed for those who seek more than just a ride, but an endless journey.

The design of this bike had very specific targets in mind: absolute comfort, durability, and maximum adaptability for cargo capacity. We designed a steel frame and fork using a very refined selection of tubing that addresses the specific needs of the discipline. The 34mm headtube paired with skinny, long, tapered chainstays provides absolute smoothness. The main triangle features round Columbus Spirit tubing in a smaller diameter and slightly thicker wall thickness, ensuring excellent compliance and long-term durability. The frame also has a T47 bottom bracket that provides ample space for dynamo routing. Gear shifting housing and hydraulic lines are left exposed, ensuring easy servicing and roadside repairs.

The custom fork, made in collaboration with Angel-Bicycles, complements the bike’s design, providing excellent vibration dampening and the necessary mounts for Brevet riding. The result is a bike that seamlessly integrates everything you need for the longest rides imaginable.

The result is a platform that beautifully integrates everything you need for the longest rides imaginable. Nothing is left out, and nothing else is needed.

Why Steel

At Scarab love steel. This material has a long history in bike manufacturing and has been able to evolve into Modern Steel. It provides the perfect balance between ride quality, durability, and reasonable weight. Yes! Some of these are not the usual variables you measure the bike industry with… Ride Quality? You heard right!
Steel provides a unique feeling of the road. It smoothens out the harshness of the surface while transferring power in a unique slingshot-like way.


 The material itself sounds humble, but don’t get us wrong: the steels we use are far from basic.

We use the most advanced steels available for bike manufacturing, allowing us to keep the bike package perfectly balanced. you riding more.
