About this product
This Wraith Fabrication Paycheck is a 55cm gravel/cyclocross bike designed for unisex adults. It features a durable steel frame paired with a carbon fork for a balance of strength and vibration damping. Equipped with 700C wheels and mechanical disc brakes, it's set up for varied terrain. The bike uses road bike shifters and derailleur gears, offering a traditional cycling experience without suspension. Manufactured in the United States, it comes with a 2-year warranty.
Our take
I appreciate the thoughtful combination of a steel frame for ride quality and a carbon fork for weight savings on this Wraith Fabrication Paycheck. The 55cm frame and 700C wheels are a good match for many riders tackling gravel or cyclocross courses. Mechanical disc brakes offer reliable stopping power, though some might prefer hydraulic. It's built in the US, which is a nice touch, and the 2-year warranty provides some peace of mind. The lack of suspension means a purer connection to the road, but also less comfort on rougher trails.
