Mosaic RT-1

There's little to rival the elegance of a handmade titanium frame. Mosaic craft their bikes in Boulder, Colorado - each one individually custom built to take advantage of the strength, compliance and durability of Ti.

This example is sporting a Level Three (Two Tone) custom paint scheme, which both reveals the natural beauty of the the titanium and provides a classic look that won't date.

As we so often see, the ENVE contact points provide a perfect match to the qualities of the frame - comfort, strength and light weight. SRAM's top of the range Red eTap groupset brings things bang up to date, with wireless electronic shifting keeping cables to a minimum and providing accurate, reliable shifting.

There's always a treasure trove of details in Mosaic's frames and the RT-1, as their top road model, is no exception. Just look at the neatness of the internal routing for the rear brake, those cowled rear dropouts, and the immaculate stainless head badge.

The DT Swiss PRC 1400 SPLINE carbon wheels, here in their 35mm deep version, are superb all-rounders for a wide range of conditions.

Naturally we've specced a titanium railed saddle too - the Selle Italia SLR - to add to the plush ride. And as always at Bespoke everything has been precisely fitted to the new owner, every last component selected not just for perfomance but to achieve the perfect fit.
