Proceso de compra RAW – Arregui Velazquez

The RAW series fundamentally differs from the Atelier in the type of finishes and the time dedicated to the design. For now we only offer four frame models focused for use in Road, Gravel, MTB and Track; Each frame is built using a specific set of tubes and components (dropouts, cable guides, etc...) selected based on our experience.

The initial design of each model is modified to adapt to the size and preferred driving position of each client; The result is a custom painting but based on a Proven geometry and tube combination over the years.

The RAW series seeks, therefore, to find the optimal balance between quality, delivery time and price.

Each painting is made to measure with what we need to know your body dimensions and you preferred position on the bicycle, the simplest option being that you provide us with a biomechanical study recent. If you do not have any study of this type or would like to modify your current position on the bicycle, you can come to our workshop to carry out a biomechanical study with an additional cost of €80 not included in the price of the frame. Also, for those experienced cyclists who have already defined their optimal position, the dimensions of your current bicycle can be used to incorporate them into the design and geometry of the frame that we are going to manufacture.

RAW Series Ordering Process

Each of the RAW series models is built using a combination of Columbus, Reynolds and/or Dedacciai tubes specially selected by us according to quality and performance criteria.

In the RAW series we wanted to eliminate from the process everything that does not directly contribute to the functionality of the painting. For this reason, the paintings are made in micro “fillet brazing” with brass (20-30 grs) based on tested models with UNE EN ISO 4210-6:2015 certification. These joints are not filed, so it is possible to see small irregularities in them that do not affect the level of operation and resistance of the frame.

The frames are delivered ready to assemble and use but without any paint or primer, hence its name RAW. Since it does not have paint, the painting tends to develop a layer of superficial rust over time so, depending on where you are going to use it (salinity and humidity of the air), we recommend protecting it with some type of paint or other means. An economical, quick option that does not hide the brass joints is to apply a transparent primer.

In principle we only sell the frame and/or fork loose; If you are interested we can also carry out complete assembly of the bicycle but, in this case, the delivery time may be longer.

Extras for RAW series

Apart from the modifications in relation to size and geometry, the RAW series also allows the selection of some extra specifications to the chosen frame model, such as the use of thru-axle, Flat-Mount disc brakes or different rear wheel spacing. These extras have a additional cost on base price and, in some cases, it may involve a longer waiting time if we do not have the necessary components.

Some extras such as the number and location of the bottle cage mount or rack mounts have no additional cost.

Everything that is not indicated in the description of each of the models is not included in the base price and is considered an extra.
