LETRAS

A road carved through the Andes to connect the towns of Mariquita and Manizales , involved a journey to conquer the mountain pass at the Paramo de Letras at 3667 masl. The 81km long road became known around the world for being one of the longest paved climbs. It’s fame among cyclists, Colombian and foreigner, earned it a prominent place in many cycling races including the Vuelta a Colombia. Here kings and queens are made or dethroned.

A tribute to the Colombian tradition of producing some of the best climbers in the world, Scarab’s lightest climbing-oriented frame was named: Letras. With a thoughtful combination of Japanese Kaisei tubes on the front triangle and Columbus tubes on the rear triangle, the Letras brings a masterful balance of agile ride quality with confident stiffness. A ride on a Letras will remind you of the exhilaration of conquering the mythical mountain pass.
