Introducing Lorax Ti and Walden Ti

Esker Cycles (United States) - Press Release: Introducing Walden Ti.

Walden Ti:

Winter beckons - as do sandy beaches and desert crossings. Walden Ti is the fat bike choice for your next exploration into the wild.

  • The titanium tubeset serves to deliver on Esker’s promise of longevity and durability. Since titanium is entirely inert, it won’t corrode in even the harshest conditions.
  • Neutral geometry allows Walden Ti to handle soft and surfy terrain, as well as it handles hard-pack and high-speeds.
  • Multiple frame mounting points ensure that this bike can handle multi-day expeditions. Three pack mounts on top and bottom of the downtube, and full bolt-in frame bag mounts give you the ability to carry what you need
  • Internal dropper seatpost routing
  • 27.5" wheels and up to 4.5" tires or go massive: 26" wheels with 4.8" tires
  • Designed for a rigid 490mm fork, or a suspension fork for up to 120mm of travel
  • Double butted, cold shaped 3al/2.5v Titanium and Esker's proprietary, adjustable Portage Dropout System
  • Sold as a frame only, including Wolf Tooth seatpost collar and headset for $2,300. Custom builds are available, enquire with Esker or your local Esker dealer.

Built for the Backcountry:

At Esker, we build our bikes for getting out there, way out there. What does that mean, you might ask? We break our design criteria down into three major tenets that every Esker product follows.

Durability:

Titanium is as durable as it comes, providing anti-corrosive qualities that deliver a trusted ride in every season. All Esker frames are over-engineered to withstand far more than a normal ride using proven materials, and testing beyond the limits to ensure you get all your miles in and out - wherever you may go.

Refined Geometry:

At Esker Cycles, we promise intentional design that lets you go farther with less fatigue. Walden Ti encourages you to traverse a coastline, desert or tundra with confidence and ease. Thanks to a neutral headtube angle, you’ll experience more precise steering and control at high speeds.

Ride Quality:

Walden Ti is optimized for success in soft sand, snow, hardpack and washboard with added comfort to go the distance. The titanium frame soaks up even the most subtle vibration - ensuring you’ll arrive back at camp with plenty of energy for the next day’s adventures.

Frame Specs:

  • Clearance for 27.5x4.5 or 26x4.8 tires
  • 44mm Headtube – size specific headtube lengths for refined fit

  • ISO 160mm native disc brake mounts on 4-position adjustable Portage dropouts (single speed capable with included change of hardware)
  • 197mm hub spacing

  • 35.0mm Seatpost clamp diameter
  • Bolt-on cable guides for versatility
  • Designed for ~495mm length forks, ENVE Fat or Whisky Fat rigid forks recommended, or suspension forks in 100mm or 120mm travel

Introducing Lorax Ti:

Lorax Ti:

Who will speak for the trees? Aboard Lorax Ti, it might be you. As you travel far and wide aboard this titanium steed on gravel paths and forest roads, ocassionally dipping your toes into the singletrack - you’ll notice that the miles pass with ease. Thanks to the vibration absorbing characteristics of our titanium tubeset, generous tire capacity, and geometry that says - “let’s go a little farther,” Lorax Ti is the bike for gravel adventure.

  • The titanium tubeset serves to deliver on Esker’s promise of longevity and durability. Since titanium is entirely inert, it won’t corrode in even the harshest conditions.
  • Neutral geometry allows Lorax Ti to be predictable and comfortable, so that you can get the long miles in without worry about the bike
  • Multiple frame mounting points ensure that this bike can handle multi-day expeditions. Three pack mounts on top and bottom of the downtube, full rack and fender mounts, and full bolt-in frame bag mounts give you the ability to carry what you need

  • Double butted, cold shaped 3al/2.5v Titanium and Esker's proprietary, adjustable Portage Dropout System

Built for the Backcountry:

At Esker, we build our bikes for getting out there, way out there. What does that mean, you might ask? We break our design criteria down into three major tenets that every Esker product follows.

Durability:

Titanium is the go-to material that sets the bar for both durability and ride quality.  All Esker frames are over-engineered to withstand far more than a normal ride using proven materials, and testing beyond the limits to ensure you get all your miles in and out - wherever you may go.

Refined Geometry:

While the intention is for Lorax to take you far from home, we want this bike to feel like home as well. From mile 2 to 92, we built this bike to pedal efficiently and let the miles roll on with ease. With a neutrally positioned seat tube angle and a slightly shorter reach, you’re positioned for comfort to save precious energy.

Ride Quality:

The titanium tubeset and more neutral geometry makes this bike ride more comfortably and efficiently than the race steed in your quiver. You’ll finish your ride feeling the urge to break out a map and start planning your next adventure.
