Ahhh the world of acronyms in which we live!
The boy’s have been burning the midnight oil of late to come up with our latest creation. Although the Corretto itself is not new to our loyal followers, the introduction of the BB30 bottom bracket shell and Integrated Seatpost (ISP) is new.
Over the last year we have been bombarded with requests to build our customer’s frames with ISP. We are not going to ramble on saying that it will have any mechanical advantage or more to the point make you ride any faster but it will give your titanium Baum are more seamless clean look. Using the Italian Thecno head assembly, which can offer up to 11mm up and down adjustment (22mm total) and infinite tilt adjustment allows the greatest amount of compromise for positional changes. We have also engineered a proprietary carbon fibre reinforcement sleeve to cope with any punishment that is thrown at it.
The best news is that we have designed this system in a way that if you decide to sell your frame, ( We hope not though! ) it can be converted back to a standard seat post and clamp configuration.
Our new BB30 system has our signature bottom bracket shell shape with the outer section stepping up to a larger diameter to increase strength in the critical area of the bottom bracket (sorry we don’t have a cool name or acronym for this - we threw some ideas around over lunch and came up with Baum Bottom Bracket Bump or B4).
There are more images of this bike on our flickr page.
