INSEARCHOF (ISO) BIKES - ULTIMATE ADVENTURE / SHIMANO / 29X2.6”(66MM) & 27.5X2.9”(73MM) / BOOST STANDARD
"InSearchOf는 여전히 더 멀리 빠르게 대륙을 달리는 종류의 자전거이지만 새로운 진보적인 프레임과 포크 디자인을 채용하여 29 x 2.6” 또는 650b x 2.8 타이어까지 장착이 가능하다. 이로 인해 더 가파르고 더 거칠고 더 깊은 지형에서도 대응이 가능하도록 디자인되었다. 다수의 장착 포인트들, 맞춤형으로 제작된 짐받이 기능이 있는 프론트 머드가드, 특별한 랙 시스템, 160/180 flat-mount 브레이크, 100mm suspension 장착까지 가능한 지오메트리 등의 보다 험한 지형을 정복할 수 있도록 설계된 InSearchOf는 도전적이라는 단어가 너무나 잘 어울리는 프레임세트이다."

INSEARCHOF (ISO) FRAMESET - ULTIMATE ADVENTURE / DEDA ZERO STEEL & REYNOLDS 853 STEEL / 29X2.4”(60mm) & 27.5X2.8”(71mm) / BOOST SPACING
"This new bike is still firmly in the #FastFar, #ContinentCrushing vein but a progressive new frame and fork design allow it to use 29 x 2.4” or 650b x 2.8 wheels, meaning steeper, rougher and deeper terrain are well within its capabilities. Multiple mounting points, a bespoke load-bearing mudguard, specific rack systems, 160/180 flat-mount braking and 100mm suspension-ready geometry mean that the InSearchOf, once again, does not shy away from the ‘Progressive’ word in our title." CyclingWeekly 10/10

ESSENTIAL DIMENSIONS
- Rotor Size: The fork can take Ø160mm or Ø180mm rotor [using standard 140/160 adaptor]. Mason Cycles is the first to develop the 160/180 Flat-Mount standard for a rigid fork. Ø160mm is recommended at the rear using an appropriate flat-mount adapter.
- Caliper Type: This frameset is designed for Flat-Mount calipers. It's possible to fit Post-Mount calipers front and rear with the use of a Flat > Post-mount adapter. Please contact us if you would like guidance on correct components to use.
- Flat-Mount Mounting Bolt Lengths: FRONT - 15mm. REAR - SRAM: 17mm. Shimano: 23mm. Bolt lengths for mounting Flat-Mount brake calipers to our frames vary because of the different dropout designs and materials used across our range.
- Wheel Spacing: The InSearchOf is designed around the 'BOOST' standard. The front hub is 10mm wider and the rear is 6mm wider than 100/142mm standard road thru-axle spec., allowing wider wheels and high volume tyres with larger clearances front and rear. The wider hub flanges result in a hugely stiffer wheel, giving enhanced bike handling and shorter/wider stays allow progressive geometry, whilst a wider rear hub helps give a greater choice of chainrings.
- SwitchLever: Ø15mm Thru-axle Front / Ø12mm Thru-axle rear.
- Front axle spacing: 110mm.
- Rear axle spacing: 148mm.
- Axle length/pitch: Front - 134mm/1.5TP/14TL. Rear - Pre Jan '25: 172mm/1.5TP/17TL. Post Jan '25: 178mm/1.0TP/14.5TL [udh frame].
- Max tyre size: 29" x 2.5" | 27.5" x 2.8".
- Min tyre size: 29" x 2.0" | 27.5" x 2.8".
- Seatpost: 31.6mm.
- Dropper-post: 31.6mm / Stealth-routed.
- Seat Clamp: 34.1mm
- Front Mech: InSearchOf is 1x specific. Drop bar shifters don't shift an MTB mech correctly and there are fitting limitations with the bolt and port positioning on the seat tube.
- BB Type: Post Jan '25: T47 x 73mm shell width. Use 'shielded' BB axle. Pre Jan '25: 73mm shell width. BSA threaded.
- 1X Cranksets: Use 3mm offset chainring for 52mm chainline. Use 0mm offset chainring for 55mm chainline. Shimano - Use BOOST spacing crankset.
- Max Single Ring: 34T with 52mm chainline. 36T with 55mm chainline.
- ISO 2.0 onwards [Jan 2025]: UDH ‘Universal derailleur Hanger’.
- Fork Dimensions: Crown height - 483mm [Equal to a typical 100mm travel XC suspension fork with 20% sag]. Offset - 50mm.
- Headset type: Integrated, 41.8Ø upper, 51.8Ø lower, for taper head tube. Angular Contact Bearings. The head-tube seat angle is 45º.
- Stack-washer maximum: 40mm below stem is max. recommended for carbon steerer. Warranty is void above this dimension.
- 'Shutter' Fender: Max load capacity 2kg. Recommended straps MasonxVoile 20".
- TriMount: Max load capacity 2kg. Use 16mm x 5mm bolts.
- Mounting Bolt Torque: 4Nm.
- Accessory Cages: Max load capacity 3kg per side. Follow manufacturers installation and and loading instructions.
- Suspention Fork: The InSearchOf frame was designed and tested for use with a typical XC Suspension fork of 100mm, with up to a 506mm crown height. Check fork manufacturers data to ensure chosen fork falls within this dimension, longer forks will void warranty.
- Crown Clearance: Down tube design gives suspension fork crown clearance for most modern forks. We cannot guarantee ALL forks will clear, so please check when installing.
- Offset: 51mm offset is recommended.

GEOMETRY AND SIZING
- GEOMETRY: https://masoncycles.cc/products/insearchof-frameset
- SIZING: This page gives you some guidelines based on rider height, but these are only a starting point for a proper bike fitting. There are of course many other factors to consider when choosing the right size for you and sizing advice will vary depending on your choice of model from the Mason range and the way that you intend to ride it. We're always here to help of course and would always recommend a professional bike fitting and visiting us for a ride on the Mason Cycles riverside gravel/country lanes test-loop if you can. There is further advice, based on specific models, below the height chart.
