"The philosophy here is simple: "Smooth is Fast, Fast is Fast". By utilizing larger wheels, Stinner aims to create a ride where trail chatter and roots effectively fade into the background. The Refugio 32 is designed from the ground up to optimize this platform, promising a bike that carries momentum over rough terrain while remaining "calm and precise" in its handling."
"While Stinner offers standard sizing from Medium to XXL, they also offer custom geometry for riders who want to further dial in their fit on this unique platform. The heart of the Refugio 32 is a straight-gauge titanium tubeset that is welded in-house in Santa Barbara. It features a classic bead-blasted raw Ti finish (chef's kiss), accented with your choice of polished titanium or black decals."
