Calfee Carbon Adventure Tandems

When Craig Calfee designed the first Carbon Fiber road bike in 1987, tandems may not have been on his mind. But in 1999, an Australian athlete asked if we could build one as he knew of a fork that was claimed to be “tandem rated”. We went forward with the project, including a special test down a hill at speed and ride off the side of the pavement into rough dirt without breaking anything. It passed.

Later, we took advantage of the ability to make ultra stiff, larger diameter torque tubes and eliminated the diagonal tube. Whether it be hunting down the top step of a podium, setting personal bests, or enjoying adventures as a team, Calfee has a tandem for you.
