Will and James, the brothers behind Brother Cycles, have given their all-road racer Stroma a little update. On the one hand, there is a fresh new design, which is available in two color variants, Electric Blue and Rubble, and you can also look forward to a little more tire clearance.

In recent years we have built Stromas with a wide range of different designs, as a sporty and lightweight steel racer with high profiles and a modern look, as well as a mudguard racing bike with lighting system for long distances and sporty trips. With the Stroma you can implement your ideas on the basis of a frame that leaves little to be desired: Reynolds 725 tube set, lightweight carbon fork with internal cable routing, mudguard mounting points - everything implemented sensibly and with high quality.

For us as fans of all-road bikes, the Stroma is a wonderful example of the one-for-all concept, a sporty all-rounder between a racing bike, a light gravel racer, a commuter with and without mudguards and lights or a bikepacking long-distance racer. Thanks to the increased tire clearance of 38mm without and 32mm with mudguards, you are prepared for many things, fast with 30 mm slicks on asphalt or slightly studded on forest highways - the Stroma is perfect.

The frame comes with Brother's own 1 1/8 - 1 1/2 full carbon fork including internal routing for light cables. The required headset is for 44mm, ZS44/28.6 above, EC44/40 below.

Further details of the frame can be found on the Brother website

We still have some frames from the previous series on offer, with slightly less tire clearance at a reasonable price, but only certain colors and sizes are still available.
