Kinesis Crosslight FiveT Frame

Kinesis Crosslight FiveT Frame

All Kinesis framesets are designed in the UK, for the dedicated enthusiast who knows exactly what he or she wants and is not prepared to settle for a generic mass-market bike.

We introduced our first Crosslight cyclocross frame in 2000 and it has proved to be one of our most successful framesets.

The initial concept was to offer a UK designed, affordable, lightweight, race ready cross frame and forks capable of competing in top level competition. We seem to have got the formula right, because look at any UK cross race today and many of the top riders will be on Crosslight frames and forks.

If you are trying the sport for the first time or competing at Elite level there is a Crosslight frameset designed to perform for you.

This is a performance ‘cross frame with unique features that make it a true all round performer built to last.

Cycling Weekly Nov. '07: "The handling of the 4t is impressive, especially when taking on slow speed corners".

This adaptable ‘cross frame shares the race winning geometry of the EVO4 and Pro5 but is built using lightweight, Kinesis Double Butted, 7005 series, alloy tubing. The frame has our unique ‘Ergo’ top tube, it is lightened and profiled to fit your shoulder, making it more comfortable for carrying over longer distances. The tube is also wider where it meets the seat tube, helping to resist twisting forces along the front triangle.

The FiveT is often loaded up and used as a tourer, so for '10 we've added a discrete gusset under the headtube for increased durability a this point. 

The FiveT delivers high performance at an entry level price, it’s ideal for the rider who is new to the sport but has the potential to progress to elite level competition.
The FiveT features ‘aStay’ chainstays and although designed primarily as a 'crosser, it has clearance for 3 rings, twin bottle mounts, rack and mudguard eyelets and an eyeletted alloy fork option. These features mean it performs equally well as a ‘crosser, tough tourer, commuter or all three!

Fresh new graphics, 2 colour paint and a larger size range including a 48cm to suit female and Junior riders add to the appeal of this superb package.
