Fairdale Weekender Nomad MXMatte Black in M‑L
The Fairdale Weekender Nomad MX's nine-syllable name might not roll off the tongue, but it will roll over pretty much anything else with style. We based this bike loosely on some of our employee's custom builds.
It has the massive range, and smooth shifting of the Weekender Nomad's SRAM Apex drivetrain mated to our MX handlebar's more upright riding position. The rugged Chromoly steel Weekender frame adapts to this fun-to-ride configuration happily and makes short or long rides a blast. This model is an in-house favorite, and we think it could be yours too.
The Nomad MX features the Weekender’s geometry that is built around 27.5 x 2.0” Continental tires, and also leaves plenty of space for compatibility with 700c wheels if you ever feel like changing it up.*
Matte Black available in Medium and Large.
*Please note that the X-Small and Small Weekenders use 27.5 x 1.65" Maxxis tires and these frame sizes are not compatible with 700c wheels.
