Style | Designed by hugely experienced cycle tourists this is our own high quality Reynolds 725 frame built to our specification with a Reynolds steel fork. All Spa Cycles branded frame and forks are ED Coated. (ED stands for Electrophoretic Deposition. For steel frame bicycles, what this means is that the conductive steel frame and fork are placed in an liquid that has paint particles suspended in it. The bath is put under the influence of an electric field, and the paint particles are attracted to the charged frame and fork. The particles are fused to the frame and fork in a perfectly uniform thickness. The thickness of the coating can be adjusted based on the strength of the electric field.) The geometry and ride is what you would expect and want from a touring bike, so that handling is reliable and assured when loaded.
