QR 15×110 thru-axle included with the fork. ----- ORIGIN OF THE SARDINHA NAME One of the ancient occupations of the inhospitable Nordeste (Portugal) was that of the almocreves; austere merchants who carried their saddlebags with goods to supply the Trasmontanos from village to village. One of the typical products they carried was sardinhas (sardines). Very famous also outside the country, the Portuguese sardinhas travelled through Trás-os-Montes countless times on the back of pack animals led by the almocreves. We have been inspired by these noble merchants to design the Nordest Sardinha 3, a bikepacking created to go to the end of the world (and come back in one piece). Here the philosophy is to enjoy every pedalling, to discover the landscape and the people that the trip offers us, to contemplate the stars in some remote place, and the next morning to roll up the sleeping bag to continue the adventure.

This incredible bike is designed to go anywhere, and we're confident it'll get you to the end of the world and back in one piece.

This frame is perfect for those who want to explore dirt roads and singletracks at their own pace! With a new geometry, you'll be ready to hit the trails with confidence.

Our Super Nordest Albarda 3 TI frame is a silent, fun and fast gravel model, with a new geometry for dropbar. You can build your bike at your convenience, or choose the options we recommend in our kits. The frame is manufactured in a new TITANIUM Ti3Al2.5V double butted tubing, with an advanced study of geometry designed by Pedro Jerónimo, has been tested by riders with excellent results in all conditions.

Fork

Cane Creek Invert is the World’s First Gravel Fork. Invert smoothes your ride and gives unbelievable control of your bike on rough roads, loose turns, and steep descents. It’s surprisingly lightweight, easy to use, and strikingly attractive. Until this point, no fork made for drop bars has been able to combine the smooth ride, lightweight, simplicity, and good looks into one complete package. Riding beyond the pavement can be rough, physically taxing, and unpredictable. Invert goes straight to the source of this problem to offer a smoother ride with more traction, both uphill and down. With Invert, you’ll be more efficient, more relaxed, and have confidence to glide over gravel like you’ve never experienced before.

Axle 12×100 thru-axle included with the fork.
