Brodie Torque 2.0
Steel Simplicity. Go-Anywhere Capability.
The Brodie Torque 2.0 is built on a modern 4130 CroMo Steel frame with an upright, confidence-inspiring geometry. By utilizing high-volume 27.5" x 2.6” tires, it provides a "natural suspension" that floats over gravel, roots, and city stairs alike. With a modern longer top tube and wide 780mm bars, it offers the stability of a contemporary trail bike while maintaining the soul of a classic expedition rig.
Why the Torque 2.0 is the Ultimate Utility Machine:
-
Bigger Tires, More Traction: Equipped with WTB Ranger 27.5 x 2.6” tires. These massive "plus-sized" tires offer incredible comfort and mechanical grip on loose fire roads, yet feature a fast-rolling center pattern for efficient pavement transitions.
-
Shimano CUES 1x10 Drivetrain: Featuring the all-new Shimano CUES system, designed for high-mileage durability. The clutch rear derailleur keeps your chain silent on rough trails, while the huge 11-45T cassette ensures you have the gears to crawl up the steepest fully-loaded climbs.
-
Mounts for Everything: This frame is a literal Swiss Army Knife. With triple mounts on the fork legs, top tube bento mounts, down tube accessory mounts, and full rack/fender compatibility, you can bolt on enough gear for a weekend trip or a trans-continental tour.
-
Hydraulic Stopping Power: Equipped with Shimano MT-200 hydraulic disc brakes, providing effortless, one-finger braking in wet, muddy, or dusty conditions. Essential when you're carrying extra weight.
-
Rigid Chromoly Fork: No air seals to leak or bushings to wear out. The rigid steel fork is "dead-simple" and surprisingly compliant, offering a direct, connected feel to the terrain that suspension bikes lack.
-
The Perfect "N+1" Bike: It’s the ultimate "everything else" bike. Perfect as a winter commuter, a rugged bikepacking machine, or a fun-focused trail ripper that reminds you why you started riding in the first place.

The Alegro Perspective: In the shop, we call the Torque 2.0 the "Freedom Machine." It’s rare to find a bike this versatile that doesn't feel like a compromise. Because it lacks a suspension fork, it's significantly easier to maintain and much better for carrying front-loaded gear. Whether you're "urban exploring" over curbs and alleys or disappearing into the backcountry for three days, the Torque 2.0 feels right at home. It’s a bike for the rider who values adventure over "marketing fluff."
