ROAD
Fast geometry, short stays, and enough clearance for 30mm because you will want it eventually.

DRAWING 001 / SCALE 1:5 / ALL DIMENSIONS MM
Built to your numbers, not your size
Every frame starts as a drawing and you approve it before a tube is cut. We fit you, we argue with you about the head angle, and then one person brazes the whole thing. Nine to fourteen weeks, about forty frames a year, no models and no sizes.

Scroll and it builds
This is a real orthographic side view of a 56cm road frame, drawn in the order the tubes are tacked: seat tube, top tube, down tube, head tube, then the rear triangle and the fork. The dimensions arrive last, which is also how a fitting session goes.
Reference drawing only. Your sheet is issued at 1:1 with your own fit numbers before any tube is cut.
What we build
ALL ROAD
The one most people should order. Slacker, longer, and it takes a rack without looking like it does.
Columbus Spirit
1,810 g
TRACK
Stiff, steep and utterly single minded. No brake bridge, no mounts, no arguments.
Columbus Max
1,520 g
RANDONNEUR
Low trail, front rack brazed as part of the frame, and lighting run inside the tubes.
Kaisei 8630
