Interbike 2015: Moots Routt 45

Moots Bicycles, proudly handbuilt in the Rockies, have been in the business since 1981. Each of their frames is manufactured from US-made titanium tubing, with everything done by hand – from tube mitering and welding to finishing and polishing.

The Routt 45 is Moots entry into the gravel, dirt-road and double track exploration market, with tire (tyre) clearance of 45mm.

MootsRoutt45-1Stock options on the Routt 45 include a 44mm head tube for tapered forks, thru-axle, 27.2mm seatpost size, standard English threaded bottom bracket (we really like this) top tube cable routing and size-specific geometry for precise handling.

MootsRoutt45-3Available in seven stock sizes ranging from effective top tube sizes of 51.5cm, 52.5cm, 54cm, 55cm, 56cm, 58cm and 60cm.

MootsRoutt45-6As with everything Moots creates, options on the Routt 45 can be customized:

  • Custom Geometry.
  • S & S Couplers for those who like to travel, but save a bit of $ on the case size.
  • Internaliz(s)ed cable routing for electronic drivetrains.
  • Rack eyelets, etc.

    I love Moots. I have a YBB 29er and love it. If I had the coin, this would be the one bike I would buy.
