The dCROIS of Leo Plaster

Jim Cameron | September 2015

A couple of months ago Leo got in contact looking for his first cyclocross bike. He came to the right place.

The build

Leo’s dCROIS build went something like this – Shimano Ultegra 6800 Hydraulic groupset, Pacenti SL25s laced onto blue Chris King R45 hubs shoed with Challenge Open Tubular Limus, a Whisky Parts No.7 fork nestled in with a Cane Creek headset, Crank Brothers Candy 1 pedals, Fizik Arione Vs saddle, Ritchey Logic  finishing kit wrapped up with Lizards Skins DSP blue tape and topped off with some blue Hope clamps and bolts.

More photos available in the gallery.

The name

dCROIS /krɔʃ/ pronounced cross – in English, cross.

The geometry

For those interested this is a ’56’ dCROIS. Details on the geometry can be seen in the table below.
