This purchase confirms your frame, the Cane Creek Invert Gravel Suspension fork, and includes a Cane Creek Hellbender 70 headset in your color choice.
The suggested fork model is the Invert CS 40mm travel option with lockout. We can also build the Cenote with the Fox Tapercast or Rockshox Rudy forks.
Frame Material, the Cenote is also available in steel upon request at a lower cost.
Finish:
The standard included finish is a brushed front triangle with anodized graphics The model name and Chumba graphics are one-color anodized or bead blasted. For custom anodizing colors like the example shown please inquire after placing your order. Custom Anodizing requests can range from $0-600. Custom fork cerakote (C series) is usually $250. We can also cerakote the frame starting around $700. Custom finishes are planned after a frameset is on deposit.
Many gravel events are combining gravel, road, jeep road chonk and singletrack. The need for a fast and capable gravel bike that both inspires confidence and is a blast to race/ride was the inspiration for adding the Cenote to our lineup.
The geometry blends concepts from our Terlingua, SL, and Yaupon models. The Cenote is built around a longer front center with a longer TT, slacker HTº and a touch steeper STº than our Terlingua Gravel Bike. The Cenote is best paired to shorter stems 50-80mm, wider bars and tires 42-50mm. The result is the ultimate underbike!

Future Proofing:

Also available with our Integrated FM dropouts for UDH.
The frameset will clear a 700x50mm tire
Big chainring clearance 44T on normal chainlines
Fits common axle to crowns of all the big hitter suspension fork companies, Cane Creek, Fox, Rockshox
Why choose the PMW Sliding w/Flat Mount dropout option? (included in frame price)
A quick change of the sliding dropout insert and you can run UDH, T-Type, singlespeed, or traditional mount derailleurs. Use this dropout to gain 20mm of adjustable chainstay and wheelbase. This feature offers the widest range of tire fitment and ride characteristics. The forward slider position provides a responsive ride or move it aft to make the ride more stable. Both sides of the dropout have replaceable Flat Mount inserts/hangers.
Why choose the PMW Direct UDH Integrated Flat Mount dropout option? (option in frame customizations +$250)
Some riders aesthetically prefer the brake caliper mounted on the chainstay. It certainly looks tidy! What you lose in adjustability when compared to the Sliding Dropout is made up for with a lighter weight dropout system.
