Built to blend street agility with gravel grit, the FCB ESSENTIAL CHALK 2025 is kitted out for dynamic performance and reliable comfort. Its triple-butted alloy frame and matching fork keep things light and sturdy, while SRAM's GX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain and hydraulic TLM brakes deliver crisp control. With SPANK WING 22 rims, MAXXIS Rambler tyres, and a RIDE ALPHA cockpit, this setup is dialled for versatility. Finished in sleek Chalk with a FIZIK saddle and ODI grips, it’s minimal fuss, maximum ride.
Light, nimble, and city-slicker approved, the FCB ESSENTIAL’s tech frame is precision-built for urban riders with a hint of wanderlust. Crafted from AL 6061 alloy and fine-tuned with ZS44/ZS56 headset compatibility, it’s ready for fast forks and fast moves. Flat mount disc brakes and 160mm rotor clearance mean smooth, safe stops, even when life throws a red light your way. With room for chunky 700 x 50C tyres and a sturdy BSA bottom bracket, it’s commuter-ready with adventure potential baked in.
