Fairlight Strael 4.0 Design - Reynolds 853 Road DZB

[@ashleyhouse9690]

I've wanted a Strael for a few years and finally ordered a Strael v3.0 in December not realising a v4. 0 was on the cards. Fairlight upgraded me for free so a top bunch and can't wait to see it and ride it.

[@trevekneebone369]

Good to know. I've been holding out for a 4.0 for ages!

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

Love to see manufacturers working so tightly with suppliers.

[@jetfitzmaurice]

This really illustrates the manic attention to detail that goes into the design, a fascinating insight 👍

[@jamsxr]

Such a cool brand. Next bike.

[@reynolds8532]

As you can tell from my name, I'm a fan. This is exciting!

[@bernhardklee1]

Nice sneak of the new colour way there

[@velophil9502]

Finally I can place an order, waited 16 month for this to be released 😆

[@mlapergola]

Awesome video

[@jamesdoolan8040]

Can't wait to see what the product looks like when it's released

[@jamesdoolan8040]

Please release it in red though!

[@jcharlesbayliss]

Can we have colours other than black or white ?

[@Ben_Eagle]

love this

[@Ivanskavinsky]

Aw man! There goes the piggy bank! ❤😂

[@TESTA-CC]

Big Yes I'm Reynolds through and through 🤙🤙👍👍

[@dalescott3942]

Eh, exciting video - but what are the actual detail changes for the new version? New tube set, it would be good to nerd-out and the specifics! Hell we all love 853

[@mrjono999]

Who shot this? Looks great!

[@oskerblooser]

853 fork would be perfect

I was pondering on getting Strael probaly since v1, finally pulled the trigger for a frameset in spring last year, built it in September. If i knew v4 was coming so soon I would have probably waited. No regrets though, it's a beautiful bike and rides like a dream. One slight complaint I hope they improve upon, that radically bent chainstays make it uncomfortably close to modern allroad 45mm deep 32mm externally wide rims that I have mounted - hopefully I don't break a spoke :)

[@Esrumvej22]

Amazing work! Is the Strael 4.0 frame being manufactured at the Reynolds factory in England?

[@fotografamos4083]

Reynolds doesn't manufacture frames. Only tubes. AFAIK, @Fairlight are made in Taiwan to the highest standards.

[@nickyburnell]

Taiwan is a democracy so excellent. Absolutely no need for China. ❤

[@TheBangBangJT]

Oooo when is the 4.0 coming? I've been thinking about buying a Strael for over a year.

[@jonpoon3896]

I just wish there was a Strael small enough to fit me.

[@razeemali2322]

I always fancied the Strael. I guess my only issue was that I thought the BB drop could have been increased and maybe accommodate tyres up to 38mm. That has me leaning Secan although I ride only road, including really bad roads, but little or no gravel.

[@ashleyhouse9690]

I think the tyre clearance may be increasing 👍

[@hermes987]

Up to 39mm on the new version!

[@razeemali2322]

@@hermes987 That is great news. Couple that with a 75-80mm BB drop and it is THE bike.
