Brother Cycles Mehteh gravel frame kit

The Brother Mehteh is a fast and agile frameset, designed for long days in the saddle on varied terrain. Tire clearances go beyond what you'd find on an average gravel bike, providing the ability to go even further, off the beaten track. Ideal for an after-work gravel ride or a bikepacking tour.

The personality of the Mehteh (pronounced /meɪteɪ/) is reflected in its name: a Himalayan word for mountain Yeti, which literally translates to "Man Beast"!

The Mehteh gravel frame is constructed from Reynolds 725 steel , a heat-treated tube renowned for its strength and weight-saving properties, an ideal material for the challenges of gravel and bikepacking . It's paired with the Brother carbon gravel fork, featuring full carbon construction , mudguard mounts , triple mounts on each side of the fork, dynamo routing and flip chip dropouts. The frame and fork have clearance for tires up to 650b x 2.2" or 700c x 50 to help you navigate tough terrain.

Other features include thru-axle dropouts with flat mount, replaceable derailleur , 3 bottle cage mounts and a custom Brother seat clamp , CNC machined in the UK.

Like all Brother products, the Mehteh has been rigorously tested and has withstood extreme conditions, from the rough slopes of the Scottish Highlands to the smooth gravel of the Bavarian Alps! Most impressively, a Mehteh completed the 1,100km Atlas Mountain Race in Morocco.
