ENDURANCE ROAD/ GRAVEL RACE
The bike has about 100 miles of riding over the course of 3 rides as we tested the Campy groupset and wheels. It has never been crashed or laid down in any way. The frame is a slightly modified 56cm geometry with only the headtube being 13mm taller than a stock frame. This does increase the Standover Height and the Stack a little bit, but not by much.
A study in refined ruggedness—this is one bike to rule them all. Named for the road that brought pioneers over the Cascade Mountains on the final leg of the Oregon Trail, the Barlow is built for epic adventures. It draws on the aggressive geometry and precise handling of our award-winning Skyline road bike, while also maintaining the comfort and toughness of an off-road machine. Some might label this design “adventure rider,” “gravel racer,” or “endurance road,” but Sage Titanium’s versatile frame transcends those conventional categories. No, the Barlow relishes the rigors of the dirt while begging for the speed of the road. It loads up for a tour and can handle the long haul. It does not compromise, and it flashes with the class of titanium. It does it all.

3/2.5 Titanium
At Sage, 3/2.5 titanium is the magic material. The smooth riding alloy blends stiffness, durability and weight for the ultimate frame tubing. Titanium has a superior strength-to-weight ratio compared with steel and aluminum, and the fatigue tolerance far surpasses the other materials. Don’t fret long rain rides or brackish water crossings—3/2.5 titanium resists rust and corrosion better than any other metal tubing.
Custom Cerakote Finish
The finish on this bike is a one-off custom Cerakote finish with a small Italian flag in 2 separate locations as an homage to the Campagnolo groupset and wheels that adorn the bike. As this was a launch bike for the new Super Record Wireless Groupset, we wanted to do something special withe Italian call out. Beyond that, the finish is a matte black finish with a gloss finish on the logos for a super stealth look.
Full Internal Routing Options
Internally routed rear brake line, while the derailleurs are wireless keeps the bike looking super clean.
T47 Bottom Bracket
Classic and classy yet updated for the modern era, the T47 bottom bracket reigns supreme over press-fit alternatives. The strong interface between bottom bracket cups and the frame eliminates creaks and maintains alignment that won’t slip or wobble over time. Additionally, installation, removal and service of the design are simply superior. No punching or pressing required. Just thread it, grease it, shred it. Repeat.
Oversized 44-Millimeter Head Tube
Borrowed from the mountain bike realm, the oversized 44-millimeter head tube affords phenomenal front-end stiffness and precision on the road. Press-in headset cups provide a secure interface between frame and cockpit, and the large diameter opening accepts a wide range of steerer tubes, from 1⅛-inch straight to 1⅛–1½-inch tapered and every combination between.
