Running through the Rocky Mountains in both Canada
and the United States, the Great Divide is home to
some of the most challenging and beautiful roads
of North America. Our namesake frame shares this
cross-border connection, having been designed in
Canada and hand-built in the USA to tackle any length
and pitch of road.

POINT OF ORIGIN
Handmade in Saratoga Springs, NY U.S.A.
HEAD TUBE
44mm internal diameter
The Great Divide has been designed to showcase the
best characteristics of titanium while embracing the
latest developments in frame design. 22mm chain
stays and an oversized, bi-ovalized down tube are
bridged by a PressFit 30 bottom bracket shell to
provide stiffness and instant response under power.
An oversized head tube accommodates the latest
tapered forks while strengthening the bike’s front
end for confidence-inspiring steering precision and
cornering stability. Tempering these characteristics
are svelte seat stays and a carefully selected tubeset
designed to keep the velvety ride quality that titanium
is legendary for.

Taking the Great Divide from paper to the shop floor
starts with the selection of the highest quality 3Al2.5V cold worked stress relieved (CWSR) tubing.
The frame’s main tubes are then each double- or
triple-butted by CNC lathe, varying wall thickness
for each size of frame. The tubing is then precisely
shaped, mitered and welded in Saratoga Springs, NY
by the top titanium craftsmen in the industry.
The anodized graphics available on the Great Divide
frame deserve special mention. Using a process
unique to titanium, our graphics are formed by
electrically changing the structure of the titanium’s
surface layer. Using no paints or dyes, the result is a
durable and corrosion resistant finish that beautifully
contrasts the raw lustre of bead-blasted titanium.

New for 2014, the Great Divide is also available in our
minimal finish, with polished titanium graphics against
a matte titanium backdrop.
What makes titanium the ideal material for the Great
Divide? A well-designed titanium frame strikes the
perfect balance of low weight, smooth ride quality,
and remarkable durability. 3Al-2.5V titanium offers a
strength-to-weight ratio far better than aluminum or
steel, which allows us to achieve more frame stiffness
with less material. What makes titanium the stuff of
framebuilding legend, however, is the material’s ability
to soak up the chatter of the road. A great titanium
frame keeps you fresh in the saddle even after long
hours, but with none of the overdamped, wooden
ride quality of many carbon frames.
The Great Divide is sold as a frameset paired with
parts from the most respected brands in the
industry. A Chris King Inset 8 headset, an Enve
tapered fork and a Thomson seat post collar set
the tone for your build.
As with all No. 22 Bicycle Company frames, the Great
Divide has been built to last and its craftsmanship is
backed by our ten year warranty.
