Overview
Tout Terrain offers a wide variety of touring, commuting, bike packing, and ebikes to fit just about any need. Unlike most companies, which offer a single model with a fixed build kit or maybe 2-3 models/build kits at different price points with colors and component spec tied to the given model, Tout Terrain offers a flexible bike configuration program that falls somewhere between the standard stock models approach and full custom bike builds.The approach is similar to configuring a car on a manufacturer's website. You cannot pick every single component on the bike, but they offer options that cover the just about everything we get questions about:
- Frame type (various wheel sizes, some step through options, various intended uses)
- Frame color (4 colors included, 6 at small upcharge, you choose for a larger upcharge)
- Frame size (3-4 options depending on model)
- Drivetrain type (derailleur, various internal gear hubs, various gearboxes)
- Contact points (saddles, grips, handlebars, pedals, stem length)
- Sprocket sizes/gear ratios
- Brake setup (left front vs right front)
- Steerer tube length/number of spacers
- Shifter options (twist vs thumb shifters)
- Brakes, headset, bottom bracket upgrades
- Steering lock option
- Dynamo hubs
- Lights
- USB chargers
- Pitlock security skewers
- Racks
- Tires
- Fenders
- Bell
- Locks
- Reflective frame decals
