2006 Bicycles: Madeleine

Madeleine


Madeleine


The 2006 Madeleine returns to a dropped bar design at the request of many of our touring customers who felt they didn't have enough hand positions with the flat bar. For those who prefer the flat bar, don't worry: Madeleine can be converted to flat bars with no ill effects.

Another change is the frame material: the bicycle is now Al 7005 aluminum. The 20.5" Madeleine weighs 21.6 lbs.

The gearing is definitely suited for touring, with a 26/38/48 Sugino triple crankset mated with an 11/34 9-speed cassette. The low gear is 20.6 gear inches. Shimano Deore and Tiagra components are the mainstays of the bicycle.

The longer reach Tiagra brakes allow room for fender clearance. There are braze-ons for a rear rack and two bottle cages.

Adventure Cycling's Northern Tier route comes right by our offices, so stop in and say hello!
