ECCENTRIC BOTTOM BRACKET

Adjust the eccentric bottom bracket to the perfect height in every configuration. 6 o’clock position for a low and stable center of gravity for aggressive enduro or downhill riding, 12 o’clock position for clearance when using shorter travel or rigid forks, and somewhere in between for everything else from gravel and downhill.

Big Adventure

Extension of the Calfee Adventure model but designed around a 120mm suspension corrected rigid fork, making it feel more stable for big road and off road adventures.

The carbon leaf spring chainstays combined with 50c+ tire widths make this a high performance “go anywhere” bike. A low seat tube clamp allows use of a dropper post for more extreme terrain.

Available in sizes from XS through XXL, the bike can be customized with bike packing mounts. The frame geometry is suitable for long, fast stretches on pavement yet has the grunt to handle the rough stuff.

Cross Country

Nimble hardtail race bike built up for the lightweight climbing specialist, Olympic contender, or for a big day of steep climbs and flowy descents.

The carbon leaf spring chain stays balance nicely with 120mm front suspension. Lockout capability keeps the front end under control when climbing hard.

With geometry cues taken from steep terrain bikes, this bike achieves the perfect balance of efficiency for the highest levels of competition. Note that the extra small and small size frames are built around 27.5” x 2.2” tire sizes but will accommodate a 29″ small tread tire.

Trail

Spirited all-mountain bike that perfectly balances the ability to charge up punchy climbs and fly down the steeps, sliding into berms like a speed demon.

With 140mm suspension travel up front, the durability of the solid carbon leaf spring chainstays, and the addition of a long travel dropper-post makes the this bike plenty of fun on 95% of the terrain.

The geometry speaks for itself. But the seat tube angle is fairly slack for flat terrain. Just slide the saddle forward for more vertical conditions.

Enduro

Rocket down the steeps, throw fat whips, and earn maximum steeze points. 

The Enduro is a no rules, aggressive, send-it type of bike that makes the most of the mixed wheel size setup. With a 29” x 2.5 front tire, 27.5” x 2.5 rear tire, and 160mm travel suspension fork, our Enduro setup manufactures the business in the front and party in the back.

With our solid carbon leaf-spring chainstays, our lightweight Cephal frame can tackle anything your body can handle. This is for the diehard full sender who lives life beyond the edge of traction.

It’s a bike you can fall in love with because it’ll stick with you through the thick and thin, no matter what the adventure is.
