BROTHER CYCLES PINE CONE｜Enjoy the MTB spirit of yesteryear with today's play style
Fun whether cruising the city or hitting the forest roads. An all-terrain bike that can be built with creative ideas.
The BROTHER CYCLES PINE CONE brings the freedom and playful spirit of 80s and 90s mountain bikes to modern riding styles.
The supple ride quality of a slim chromoly frame is combined with modern tire clearance and cargo capacity. Its versatility makes it enjoyable for a wide range of uses, from city riding, gravel riding, and touring to trail riding, without limiting its purpose.
The heat-treated 4130 chromoly tubes offer both durability and comfort. The short 440mm chainstay and 70° head angle strike a good balance between nimble handling and stability.
It's great for a classic build with V-brakes or cantilever brakes, or for a modern adventure bike with disc brakes and fatter 650B tires. This frame lets you freely cultivate it according to your existing parts and ideal style.
