Butterfly
Butterfly is a graceful dancer. “Graceful” may not be the right word to describe a LUG bike. However, it is a perfect term for a 931 stainless steel LUG bike. It gives an unbelievable feeling of speed and easiness.
Butterfly design is simple. Black and white lines depict the veins and contour of a butterfly’s wing. Large portion of the frame remained polished and clear. It represents the grassland, the sky or the garden. The layout is ecologically meaningful as the colorful butterfly dazzles around, but, it spends most of the time residing on flowers. It never steals the charm of the main character, but, in unnoticed corners, a butterfly may give unexpected joy.
Reynolds 931 Stainless Steel
931 has a tensile strength near 1300 MPa, and a very good corrosion resistance and ductility. Therefore, with manipulation on tube thickness and tube size, a 931 frame can be as stiff as a 953 frame, as comfortable as a titanium touring frame, or as much fun as a CrMo fixed gear frame. It is a very versatile multi-purpose material.
