Monster Tyres, Nimble Ride
The OPEN WI.DE. (Winding Detours) isn't just a gravel bike; it's a statement. Born from the pioneering spirit of OPEN's acclaimed U.P., the WI.DE. pushes the boundaries of what a drop-bar bike can do, blending road-bike agility with genuine off-road prowess. This is your ultimate companion for boundless adventure, whether it's fast-paced gravel, technical singletrack, or the long, winding roads in between.
Unleash Your Limits with Unprecedented Tire Clearance: The defining feature of the WI.DE. is its colossal tire clearance. With innovative double-dropped chainstays, it comfortably swallows up to 2.4-inch (61mm) 650b/27.5" mountain bike tires or 700c x 46mm gravel tires. This means you're no longer limited by your bike; you're free to choose the perfect rubber for any surface, from rutted forest paths to smooth tarmac, all while maintaining a narrow, efficient road bike Q-factor.
Nimble Handling, Unwavering Stability: Despite its impressive tire capacity, the WI.DE. retains a remarkably nimble and responsive ride feel. Its optimized geometry, featuring a slightly taller head tube and a lower bottom bracket compared to the U.P. ensures composed handling and exceptional stability even when the terrain gets wild. Whether you're navigating tight singletrack or descending at speed on loose gravel, the WI.DE. inspires confidence.
Engineered for Adventure, Built for Performance: Crafted from a blend of high-modulus carbon fiber with OPEN's WI.DE. frameset strikes the perfect balance of lightweight performance and rugged durability. Weighing in at a mere 1040g (frame, size M), it's incredibly efficient on climbs and accelerates with electrifying speed.
Thoughtful Features
- 1x Drivetrain Specific: Designed for the simplicity and robust chain retention of 1x setups (compatible with 2x only via Classified hub).
- Multiple Mounting Points: Four bottle cage mounts, including a dedicated toolbox mount under the bottom bracket and top tube bag mounts, ensure you're always prepared for epic journeys.
- Internal Cable Routing: Keeps cables and hoses clean, protected, and visually sleek.
- Smart-Mount 160 Brake System: Direct caliper attachment for 160mm rotors, eliminating the need for adapters and enhancing stiffness and braking performance.
- Zero-Offset Seatpost Compatibility: Designed for a lighter and more efficient zero-offset 27.2mm seatpost.
The OPEN WI.DE. is more than a bike; it's an invitation to explore. It's for the rider who craves versatility, demands performance, and isn't afraid to take the scenic route, no matter how winding the detour.
