OPEN WIDE Frameset With Contender Custom Paint
Product Details
This OPEN WIDE Frameset is a collaboration between OPEN and Contender Bicycles, featuring custom paint finishes available in limited quantities only available at Contender. This frameset showcases the proven WIDE platform with distinctive colorways, offering riders a combination of performance and design.
Built for riders who look for detours and want versatility without compromising speed, the WI.DE. is built to handle more extreme terrain, while maintaining the efficient geometry that makes OPEN frames legendary.
With the largest tire clearance in OPEN’s lineup, the WI.DE. fits up to 2.4" (61mm) tires on 650b wheels or 46mm on 700c wheels, transforming rough trails, roots, and rocks into manageable terrain. Its innovative double-drop chainstays create a box shape behind the bottom bracket, increasing stiffness, reducing weight, and maximizing clearance without compromising fast road geometry.
Additional engineering details reinforce the WI.DE.’s performance edge: Wire-stays provide vertical compliance while maintaining lateral stiffness, the Flat-Out downtube strategically applies ultra-high modulus carbon for stiffness, and the zero-setback seattube angle ensures efficient positioning for most riders. All of this comes in at just 1040 grams, the same as the U.P., proving that maximum tire clearance doesn’t mean performance compromises.
Perfect for riders who prioritize versitility, this limited Contender edition is equally at home on technical mountain bike trails with 27.5" tires or lightning-fast gravel roads with 700c wheels. The OPEN WIDE Frameset is a blank canvas with limitless potential to create the ultimate custom build of your dreams.
