Customer Reviews
I used the Flume frame as a base for a custom fat bike build. Fit and finish on the frame is very good. Tire clearance is also very good. Once built up, the bike handled very nicely and is super fun! It ended up being 32 lbs with a Rockshox Bluto and an AXS Reverb dropper, which is not too bad for a GX build.
