The Fairdale Nomad version of the Weekender is designed for travel. While it handles weekday commuting on rough city roads with ease, it truly excels on long hauls.
The Weekender Nomad’s 100% 4130 chromoly frame and fork can withstand virtually anything you throw at it. As our top-of-the-line Weekender model, it comes equipped with an impressive parts build, including a SRAM Apex 1x derailleur and shifter, Avid disc brakes, SRAM Apex 1 cranks, and Maxxis semi-knobby tyres.
The Nomad features the Weekender’s redesigned geometry, built around 27.5 x 2.1" tyres, and also offers ample space for compatibility with 700c wheels if you decide to switch.
*Please note that the X-Small and Small Weekenders use 27.5 x 1.65" Maxxis tires and these frame sizes are not compatible with 700c wheels.
Small: 5'2" 5'7" height
Medium: 5'7" - 5'10" height
Large: 5'9" - 6'1" height
