Fit Geometry footnotes continued:

5. Standover height is measured midway along the top tube, the actual typical point where a rider stands on a bike. Be aware that this is different from how many production bikes measure standover height.
6. Rider height range, typical: Choosing a bike size based on height is not wise. We include height ranges because it is a standard industry practice. If you need help deciding what size you should ride, visit a bike fitter to determine your ideal size. Seven does not offer size recommendations remotely. Including size ranges also highlights that most riders could choose from three Rider Ready sizes — as opposed to one for most stock bike alternatives.
7. Rider weight range: This is the rider in birthday suit, without any clothing, equipment, hydration, etc. To understand Seven's ride weight philosophy and parameters, read our Ride Carry-Weight standards. Ranges shown here are our recommendations for optimal ride performance. However, if your weight is above the recommendation, the bike will still handle and perform significantly better than any stock bike. For specific component weight limits, check with the manufacturer.

Frame Geometry Performance footnotes:

8. Toe overlap warning: Because toe overlap is determined, in large part, by factors not related to frame geometry, we cannot guarantee that your bike setup will not have any overlap. Make sure you are comfortable with the length of the front center before ordering a bike. You can check your current bike to compare front centers.
9. Seat tube length is measured from the center of the bottom bracket to the intersection of the top tube's centerline. To determine the total seat tube length from the top edge of the seat top to the center of the bottom bracket, add about 4.5 cm.

Footnotes:

31. Seven's standard performance baseline is "100%": The performance that Seven's typical bike in this riding category provides. In general, 100% is excellent performance in most cases. When we specifiy a different percent, it means for this specific model with these specific features, options, and upgrades, we believe the change provides a benefit.
32. Sustained climbing: Long climbs, usually seated. A lighter, more lively frame can make long ascents quicker.
33. Punchy climbs are short ascents on which you're pushing big watts or standing for a good portion of the climb. A stiffer tubeset can benefit this kind of climb.
34. High-speed descending: These are long predictable descents where stability is important. If you want more confidence on long descents, you want more of this trait.
35. Technical & quick: Your movement on the bike affects the bike's handling, feel, and control. The more amenable your bike is to body English, the more control you have in tight situations: twisty switchbacks, tight corners, and tricky trails.
36. Weight Balance: Are you doing loaded pack riding? Are you doing minimalistic performance riding? Different cargo levels benefit from different tubeset designs.
37. Cargo capacity: If you're carrying more than about 14 lb (6 kg) you're starting to get into the cargo-carrying range. That benefits from a bike that leans toward cargo capacity. Stiffer seat stays mean better bike handling when loaded with gear — but a harsher ride when unloaded.
38. Comfort & flow: Flow encompasses all the positive aspects of a smoother ride and improved tire traction and control. You flow over rocks, roots, broken pavement. You can use body English more actively. Your tires maintain better contact with the ground. Flow is one of the most important and impactful aspects of a performance bike.
39. Frame Weight: The performance elements of the frame determine the frame's weight. Frame weight is an outcome of ideal bike design rather than an input requirement. A punchier climber will be stiffer. A frameset with more comfort and flow will be lighter. Your choice of ride characteristics determines the frame's weight.

Upgrades Available

Third bottle mount under down tube

Most bikes have one or two water bottle mounts. You can include a third bottle mount on your Seven if you'd like.

This is a no charge option.

Fender mounts

Our fender mounts include one on each dropout, a chainstay bridge mount, and a seat stay bridge mount that is oriented at 90 degrees to the hub. This is optimized for 99% of all performance fender systems.

This upgrade is $145.

Travel couplers for easy luggage packing

If you travel with your bike, or want to travel with your bike, more than once a year, it may be worth investing in our coupler upgrade. Read all the details and benefits.

This upgrade is $1,995.

Etched Graphics

The price for etched graphics is $250. Most of our graphic options are no charge. Etched graphics are time-consuming. But they look great.
