It’s a single speed or geared cyclocross racer. That’s it, that’s what it’s for…

Designers Notes
As we no longer need our cyclocross bikes to also be our gravel bikes, the Mean Jean has aggressive race geometry: a tallish (66mm) bb height and a short 415mm rear end. It fits a 44c tire in the back and is a riot in the dirt. It’s way more flickable on trail than a modern gravel bike, which needs to be stable at 35mph while descending a dusty road surface made of marbles. Strangely enough, for some riders the short wheelbase and agile handling will actually make it the “gravel” bike they’ve been dreaming of.

It’ll go anywhere, but the features, or lack thereof, speak to its intended purpose. Two bottle mounts. No fenders, no racks. Simple. Though because of the way our carbon fork molds work, it does actually have internal dynamo routing in the fork. Good for folks who want to use it for night time excursions.

TUBING

BOSS Super Tubes
These are a Wilde exclusive, made just for us according to our precise needs and priorities. There are levels to this stuff, and this is the next step in making really really good steel bikes. BOSS Super Tubes are air-hardened, custom-extruded, seamless steel tubing. Super premium. We are no longer tied to the available off-the-shelf options, we can truly pursue the boundaries of strength and lightweight without the constraint of being limited by the available tubing. Whatever tube diameter, wall thickness, or butting profile we believe is best for an application, we can now just make it.
