Black Series Multistrada

£5,629 British designed, all-road speedster

- 

The Black Series range of bikes and components has long been the 'special projects' label of Andy Wallis. He's the designer, and owner of Poshbikes, which supplies to pros worldwide. Whenever a new frame, wheelset or component is required to outperform the standard item, or a specific bike is needed for a factory race team when there isn't one in their line-up, a custom item is created under the Black Series code name. Now you can buy these frames and components.

01 Clearly capable

The Multistrada was created for real-world competition and has won medals in secret. It's evolved into an all-road bike with as much on-road performance as possible, restrained only by 1x gearing, a slightly longer wheelbase and larger tyres so it can take a quick detour across a fire trail or unmade gravel road, and keep up with most XC hardtails.
