BOTM: U.P.s WE DID IT AGAIN: OPEN x ENVE - part 1

Andy Kessler - 27-Jun-2019
Just about a year ago we launched our first OPENxENVE limited edition. The first edition was inspired by a mountain near Moab where ENVE has its headquarters. The picture was taken during summer and has the typical earth tone colours.

I thought we should do another limited edition inspired from a mountain in the winter and talked to Jonny Hintze from ENVE about my idea. 

A while ago I saw a picture from local Basel photographer Max Galli and I felt in love with it. Grey, black, white and almost silver I could totally see those colours on a bike.



Longs story short Enve was in, Jonny made a new design and here we go with another OPENxENVE limited edition the "winter edition". 

Have a look at the beautiful video that ENVE did in front of their door. I am not sure if the mountains fit the bike or the bike fits the mountains but they are made for each other....



Check out ENVE's page to see some more pictures of landscape and bike.

oh, I almost forgot only 60 made. Medium sold out already but we have some dealers that have stock and  I can probably find one for you.

As last time it is a kit with OPEN frameset and ENVE cockpit and seatpost custom painted. Retail is 3790 EUR/US$.

Can you share the full spec of the bike as it was configured for the photo shoot. It will save me some research time

Thx .... apologies if I hijacked your thread, that is not my intention, just seems like a logical way to share ideas with other OPEN enthusiasts across the world
That being said ... any idea when SRAM /Rockshox are dropping their 27.2 AXS Dropper?
Thank you for making such epic/fun frames

Can't say, I don't think they have announced that yet to the public.

So it says with “Enve cockpit” but items are not listed on product page. Does this include Enve stem, bar and seatpost?

Hi Andy, trying to see if I can replicate the paint specs on my RTP. Would you know the paint code/exact color of the frame along with the gray details? Thanks
