Acme
It’s no secret that the hunched-over geometry of road bikes alienates many cyclists. Enter the Acme, a city bike that hums along at road speeds while also allowing you to actually enjoy the ride. Think of it as a Mercedes on two wheels. The Acme is lighter and faster than most city bikes, which means you get to work on time with ease. It features the most advanced, reliable—and clean—drivetrain on the market: a sealed 11 speed shifter mated to a smooth and strong belt drive. Let’s face it: chains and derailleurs are a greasy time suck, and time is money for cyclists on the go. And like a high-performance European sedan, the frame’s gently swooping curves convey understated elegance. Acme means “highest,” and this bike is the apex of modern urban riding: a finely tuned mix of precision engineering, style, innovation and speed. Rediscover the joy of cycling. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
Fast, clean and colorful, the Acme Open is a modern city bike for today’s open-minded urban cyclist. Wear it with a skirt, a kilt, skinny jeans or a suit. The Open’s step-through frame opens possibilities for bike style and convenience. Well-appointed with a classy Uptown Grey finish and hi-viz red belt, the Acme Open pops with visual appeal. But it’s more than a looker. The Acme Open is lighter and faster than most city bikes, which means you get to work early and hit that restaurant reservation with time to spare. Forget greasy chains. The Acme Open’s sealed 11-speed hub and super-clean belt perform flawlessly, rain or shine, and never rust. Some dudes enjoy lubing their chains and getting their hands greasy. Not you. You know that bikes are for riding. Acme means “highest,” and this bike is the apex of modern urban cycling. The Acme Open: opening doors for you to rediscover the joy of cycling. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
Shhhh. What was that? Ajax moves through the city with stealth and speed, an urban ninja in matte black. Wired bestowed the Ajax with a Gear of the Year award and called it their “favorite urban velocipede we tested this year;” lofty praise from the oracles of innovation. At the heart of this bike’s performance is its new-school drivetrain: an eight-speed Alfine internal hub and super-smooth belt drive that slices through the city like a shinobi in the night. A favorite of tech-heads and entrepreneurs from Palo Alto to Brooklyn, the Ajax delivers across the metrics that matter: performance, engineering and, with many of the same high-end features as our Acme, value. Alas, even urban ninjas must complete the mission on budget. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
The Ajax Open re-envisions what a high performance city bike can be. Cruisers and townies are fun but they limit your range due to their weight and clunkiness. The Ajax Open, by contrast, is a nimble eight-speeder that allows you to get out of the neighborhood and beyond the town limits with ease. Kit it out with fenders and a rack and the Ajax Open becomes a year-round do everything bike. Fitness rides? Check. City commutes? Roger. Shopping sprees? Oh yeah. How and where you ride is open to interpretation. Wired compared the Ajax and its stealthy matte black finish to an urban ninja. We agree. Hydraulic disc brakes provide stop-on-a dime braking, and the low-maintenance eight-speed shifting system and super-smooth belt drive slice through the city like a whisper. The Ajax Open delivers across the metrics that matter: performance, engineering (and with many of the same high-end features as our Acme Open), value. Face the city with a smile--and an open mind--on the Ajax Open. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
Classy, handsome and unassuming in the manner of a tailored gray suit. That’s how Spot thinks of the Champa. It features the same streamlined steel frame as the Wazee but with a more reserved demeanor thanks to its warm and elegant metallic graphite finish. Kitted with a clean and quiet belt drive paired with an Alfine 8-speed, the Champa speeds down boulevards and bike paths without fuss or fanfare. Sometimes, making a statement means just getting the job done. Champa Street connects the upscale neighborhoods of Curtis Park with the high rises of Denver’s downtown core, a trip that symbolizes the vibrant lifestyle enabled by a new era of urban cycling. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
When Spot began the journey to create their first true road bike, the Denver Zephyr, they knew it had to be special—iconic in design and utterly dependable in performance. They found inspiration in an archetype of mid-century American transportation: the historic Denver Zephyr train. Its polished steel glinting in the sunlight, this marvel of efficiency, power and progress barreled across the Heartlands between Chicago and the Rockies. Spot’s Denver Zephyr may not be diesel powered, but it measures up to its namesake in all other regards: style, speed and on-time reliability. This is a classic brushed stainless steel road bike, made for the long haul, yet thoroughly modern in its features: tapered head tube, hydraulic disc brakes, Di2 electronic shifting. Spot added gentle bends to the bright steel frame’s seatstays and chainstays for subtle compliance—and yes a few style points. Knowing full well that Spot customers prize versatility, they added ample tire clearance for running up to 40c in the front and 35c in the rear to charge gravel roads. They included rack and fender mounts for randonneuring and super commuting. Years in development, no detail overlooked, they are proud to launch our version of the Denver Zephyr. Like its namesake, Spot believes it will become an American classic.
Every adult remembers their favorite childhood bike, the one you wish you still owned. The Five Points is that bike--all grown up. From its round alloy tubes and steel fork to the fat 40c tires, every detail on this go-getter and around-town ride is designed and engineered to inspire reminiscences that last a lifetime. The 3-speed hub provides the ideal gearing for cruising bike lanes or spanning the city. A no-grease belt drive completes the performance package. Five Points is an up-and-coming Denver neighborhood that has transformed and revitalized over the past decade. Where five streets converge, endless destinations await. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
Please don’t call it a girls bike. The Five Points Open is for anyone and everyone who wants a reliable transit bicycle that’s fun to ride, easy to maintain and gets you from A to B happy and refreshed. Spot's inspiration for the Five Points Open derives from their desire to provide a value-oriented city bike that never scrimps on performance or components. Ergonomic grips mold to your hands and are a pleasure to grasp. Dropped chains and derailleurs that don’t shift right? History. Instead Spot gives you a clean and worry free belt drive and a sealed 3-speed shifter. The Five Points Open is designed for a new breed of city bikers and lifestyle riders whose eyes are wide open to new possibilities. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
This speedy CX rig may be Spot's most versatile bike ever. They’ve raced it everywhere from Colorado Cross Cup events to the Dirty Kanza. The Rallye Geared slays it all—from fire roads to pavement to grinduros--with style and precision. It’s a quiver of one. Add fenders to create a hi-viz super commuter, or road slicks for a weekend long-rider. Premium touches include internal cable routing and disc brakes mounted inside the rear triangle (for better protection under race conditions). The CX1 single-ring drive is compact, light and glides up climbs. SS curious? Spot has your back. Spot’s patented sliding dropouts enable easy belt drive conversion. Bold colorways seal the deal. You may not win every race. But you’ll look like you did.
Bold, fast and belted, the Rallye SS is Spot's middle finger to boring bikes. It’s Spot’s two-wheeled answer to the rally car, a rugged speed machine that excels in all conditions: mud, grass, gravel, pavement. The nimble aluminum frame accelerates off the line. Cornering is tight and precise. Curved seat stays and a Time Trial cutout provide vertical compliance and deliver a confident ride feel. The SS comes race-configured with a CDX belt drive for lightweight durability, but adding gears is no sweat. This versatile bike is derailleur-ready. So banish bland. Take the red pill. Whether you want to win races or simply conquer the day, the Rallye SS does it all with flying colors.
The Wazee is Spot's streamlined city bike for discerning cyclists who desire the classic road-feel and confident handling of a refined steel frame, combined with the ultimate urban drivetrain. They named it for a storied Denver thoroughfare in the trendy LoDo district. Le Mans fans will recognize the legendary Martini Race Team livery on the sleek gloss black finish. It’s a shout-out to 1970s Grand Prix Porsches. The Wazee’s belt and 11-speed internal hub charge down city streets clean and quiet, lap after lap. A slender and stylish belt guard and red belt add a touch of flash to this rapid transit machine, a pimento adorning the rim of a classic martini. And all of Spot's street bikes have hard mounts for racks, fenders and a kickstand.
