The \"\u003cstrong\u003eL\u003c\/strong\u003e\" version is \"\u003cstrong\u003eL\u003c\/strong\u003eow top-tube\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey're more affordable only because most of the joints are tig-welded instead of lugged. Tigs cut the construction time for each frame down by a lot so the price gets lower. It's a perfectly strong way to make a bicycle, although not as pretty to look at as lugs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClems still have a strong wide fork crown, napkin-ring reinforcement lugs at the headtube, and a beautiful well-designed seatlug, so it looks far from a generic bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are made by the same people who make the more expensive frames and with the same materials even. Just no lugs (lugs are expensive).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFRAME SIZES\/WHEEL SIZES:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e45cm\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ 650b \/ 27.5 inch new mountain bikey size wheels. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e52cm\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ 650b \/ 27.5-inch new mountain bikey size wheels. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e59cm\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ 700c rim size, but with room for \"29er\" tires\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e64cm\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ 700c rim size, but with room for \"29er\" tires\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeatpost Dimensions — 26.8mm for 45cm and 52cm and 29.8mm for 59cm and 64cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en\/service\"\u003ePBH\u003c\/a\u003e ranges:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e45cm - 68 to 81cm\u003cbr\u003e52cm - 74 to 88cm\u003cbr\u003e59cm - 86 to 96cm\u003cbr\u003e64cm - 93 to 101cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePick the size that your PBH falls most in the middle of the range.

We'll swap out parts later for you, if you want to change something. Expect a double crank and 9-speed transmission with the shifters on the handlebars.
