Not only have they announced a new Carrizo All-Road bike, but with it, they’re introducing a complete range of approachable, made-in-the-USA bikes. Introducing the Stinner Select Program.

California-based Stinner Frameworks has been building steel and titanium bicycles for over a decade, becoming a staple in the handmade frame-building world. Their continued growth and popularity put the brand in a unique and exciting position.

The “Select” program is designed to offer customers the best Stinner has to offer while “eliminating the wait time and potential confusion that’s often associated with a custom bike”. The dedicated, in-house production and manufacturing line will allow Stinner’s full custom side to continue to flourish, with “Select” bikes remaining in stock all year long.

The new Carrizo All-Road is built in the same facility, by the same team that builds Stinner’s famous custom offerings. The Carrizo will be available online and at select Stinner dealers worldwide.

This new Carrizo all-road bike is handcrafted, powder-coated, and assembled in Stinner’s Santa Barbara facility. The frame uses lightweight Columbus Zona Steel tubes.

The complete Carrizo will sport a SRAM Apex AXS 12-speed drivetrain. The frame will be able to run 40mm tires, making it comfortable on paved, not-so-paved, and dirt roads.

Braze-ons for fenders and three water bottles make the Carrizo a tough cookie that’s ready for year-round adventuring. The complete will also have a full Easton cockpit and DT Swiss wheels.

40mm tire clearance is not enough in 2024.

This new Carrizo all-road bike

40mm tire clearance is plenty for a bike that is intended to stay on roads of varying quality

That’s fair. When I see an “all-road bike” with an XPLR drivechain, I assume it’s intended for gravel use as well. Maybe I’ve misinterpreted the use case for this bike.

The Stinner Refugio is our dedicated gravel bike with clearance up to 700x50mm. The Carrizo fills the gap between our pure road bike, the Gibraltar, and the Refugio. The Carrizo can accommodate a 2x drivetrain if you wanted to build up a frameset. The 1x XPLR AXS drivetrain was spec’d on the complete to keep it simple and user friendly. While it might not be a dedicated road or gravel bike, it still has the versatility to take you wherever you want to go.

For who? I have zero gravel roads within 100 miles of me.
And as an old head I still ride my old rig with down tube shifters once a week.
A comment like that tells me you do more time checking numbers than riding.
I’m on my last set of 23mm tires and while many will scoff, I’m not racing and churning out numbers better in my 50s than my 20s.
Enjoy the ride man before you find yourself yelling at a cloud.

Then don’t buy one. Move on, and let that sh!+ go. Stop debbie-downing everything because you can’t wrap your brain around it’s intended use or because you choose to still rock DT shift levers. I’m 55 and have kept current while still appreciating where we all came from by maintaining some retro juju, too. Appreciate and allow the props to flow… Like it, appreciate the niche, or not… It’s a beautifully made rig. I’d be ever-grateful to ride something so fantastically made.
Keep it going Stinner folks!

40mm is plenty of tire for 90% of the riding most would do with a drop-bar bike. Most graven isn’t like Unbound 200 gravel. The geometry & spec compromises that need to be made to clear anything bigger than a 50 (safely..) result in a bike that’s a bummer to ride outside of the worst surface conditions.

“The geometry & spec compromises that need to be made… result in a bike that’s a bummer to ride outside of the worst surface conditions.”

This is a joke, right? Plenty of small builders are making seriously great high clearance bikes now. I’ve thrown 45c Schwalbe Marathons on my gravel bike (that clears 700×55) and ridden the entire California coast without thinking “Wow. I’m not riding absolute garbage conditions, this is a real bummer.”

That said, Stinner found a value proposition and a market for a road++ bike that they want a piece of, and more choices are better. Good for them.

riding 45’s on the road is like showing up at a drag race in a Peel P50. LOL 🙂

Is it? A Lynskey GR 300 with a 1x Apex AXS group is running < $2500 right now.

It’s still a good deal, it’s just that the Lynskey is an exceptional one. And as someone with a couple of Lynskeys in his garage, I can say with first hand knowledge that they can be frustrating and incompetent to buy from, and their fit and finish isn’t great, but it’s generally acceptable. Additionally they make some weird choices at times: for instance I’m confused why they would have braze-ons for a rack but not fenders on this bike. If it has to be one or the other I’d think fitments for fenders make a ton more sense. They did the same thing on my wife’s bike, and there’s ways around it, but it would’ve been a cleaner install if they had done it right. That said, I’d still consider ignoring my bad experiences with the company to buy the GR300 at this price if I were in the market.

Sorry you’ve had a bad experience, my experience with them was fine, about what I’d expect from a mass produced mail-order manufacturer. My GR300 had rack & fender mounts.

Where do you see that price? I see them for $3,800 direct from Lynskey…but let’s face it, then you’d have a Lynskey…
