GT SL “Open Platform” Frames

These frames are my stock version of my Gravel Traveler. If there is one in stock in the dropdown it means I have that frame ready to go to paint for you.

The basic idea behind the GT SL Open Platform is that the frame design is already done the basic idea of the bike is ready to go, ie read the spec list below and that is how it comes. The SL part is that I have gone through even piece of material on the bike to find the most weight savings I can. In the case of these models, I have used the lightest (and notably the most expensive) headtubes, bb shells and tubing. It was legitimately days and days of working with materials on a scale to optimize the material mix. Anyway, the tubeset is a mix of Spirit HSS and Life tubing on the front end, and Spirit and Life for the back end to maximize strength to weight.

A note about design and fit.

The 55cm frame on listed for example, is designed to be able to handle quite a bit of type 2 fun. It has the ability to fit someone in that medium to large range depending on how you set up the cockpit. The top tube and reach are intensionally longer ish, to allow folks to run a proper “gravel fit” if they want but if they want run a more road ish fit that should work.

As always feel free to shoot me a note if you have any questions.
