THE

UNCOMMON
WELCOME

Founded in mid 2020 in Chennai, India, POSST aims to create a steel road bike brand
with exceptional quality. We partnered with some of the best brands and factories
from Europe and Asia for componentry. POSST bikes are made of high-quality steel
frames.

The frame design, welding and coating for our flagship model OBJECT is handled by
Scolarian Bikes at Coimbatore. The assembly of the bikes are done at our facility in
Chennai by experienced technicians. ​

 Talking about steel bicycles. we can go
on and on...in short we say - 'steel is real'

When it comes to aesthetics, nothing

WHY
beats a hand-crafted steel bike: it’s
stylish, it’s timeless and it’s pure. And
when it comes to performance-comfort
ratio, nothing again can beat steel.

STEEL
Simply put, steel remains the best
material to build a bike with. And the last
generation of steel from Columbus has
made this truer than ever.
​
Steel has great damping capacity, this
absorbs the road buzz.

These special alloys are used in the

aerospace industry. On bike frames, it
offers enhanced and long lasting riding
experience, and the confidence you need
on a endurance road or gravel bicycles.

Do we say carbon and aluminium are

bad? No, of course not. There are some
fabulous road bikes made of those
materials, but we truly believe that the
best ride is created by using steel and,
'steel is real'

What about the weight. Yes, weight of

the complete bike is important. But a
bike can never be judged only by the
weight. Equally – or even more important
– is the behavior of the bike during a
descent. Riding a steel bike gives you a
unique sense of safety. Plus, our
OBJECT's unpainted frame 54 size is just
1810g!, another reason to call our bikes
'uncommon'.

Manufacturing a bike with

recyclable material is far more
environmentally friendly. So,
we’ll just stick to steel frames.

FRAME OBJECT 2022
Object frame set uses a custom blend of
modern, high performance Columbus steel
tubing and is designed for distance and
comfort, combined with a lively and spirited
ride. A lot of thought process and research is
behind the development of this frame. A
category first and a truly Made in India
product. Coupled with the practical
advantages of rim-brakes, this is one
incredible road bike frame.

FRAME TUBES
Steel is an extremely responsive material. Has
a great damping capacity. This allows a steel
bicycle frame to absorb the “road buzz”, while
it’s stiffness means that each pedal stroke is
transferred into pure speed. True when you
say STEEL IS REAL.

POSST Object frames are made of high-end

steel tubes from Columbus Italy.

FRAME WELDING
Welding a steel frame takes time and
craftsmanship, but we wouldn’t do it any other
way.

A POSST road bike frame is welded / brazed in

our partner facility at Coimbatore. Only a few
highly specialised welders can handle the
ultra-light, thin-walled tubes from Columbus
Italia. The POSST OBJECT frame is designed,
developed and manufactured by Scolarian
Bicycles.

FRAME FINISHING
First it is Electrophoretic Deposition and then
we do powder coating. We add these extra
layers of protection for our frames to inhibit the
formation of rust in the interior of the tubing for
many more years, because our frames are for
life.

All our frames are finished with layers of primer,

basecoat, top coat and clear coating. We use
VOC-compliant paints from CROMAX, a global
brand from Axalta Coating System formally
DuPont Performance Coatings.

The Soul of Cycling
since 1919
POSST Object frames are made of high-end steel tubes from Columbus Italy. The
frame's front triangle is made of oversized tubes of OMNICROM, their newest steel
alloys, these ultra-light and thin, low-carbon Chromium-Molybdenum Steel alloys are
used today in the aerospace industry. Enriched with Vanadium, Omnicrom has
impressive mechanical properties, with increased yield strength, resilience and
excellent weldability. The rear triangle is made of Columbus 25CrMo4 seamless steel,
the chemical composition of this steel, specifying a higher percentage of Chromium,
gives to the material good resistance properties to overheating. The formation of
carbides prevents the grain enlargement: the steel maintains its properties during
brazing and welding, even in the malleable raw state it features excellent mechanical
characteristics.

T47
Now a standard on world's best road bikes

POSST Object use T47 bottom bracket shell. The T47

bottom bracket shell has an enlarged diameter with M47x1
thread. Combined with over-sized tubes, the unit forms a
stiffer joint, resulting in more efficient energy transfer
when pedaling with the benefit and peace of mind of a
threaded system..

An oversized bottom bracket shell means a larger area for

the down tube and seat stays to be welded onto. From a
frame builders perspective, this makes a lot of sense. T47
is now fast becoming the standard on high end and
premium handmade steel bikes from Europe.

We use T47 bb cups which are CNC machined from a solid

billet of aircraft grade aluminium by Rideworks of UK, to
accommodate the use of our Campagnolo's Ultra Torque
crankset.

 The famous Campagnolo BIG corkscrew with the new chrome and dark chrome
finishes reflects the philosophy of all Campagnolo products: maximum functionality,
quality and design. Indeed, to prevent cork residues from being left in the bottle
following incorrect extraction of the cork, the levers of the Campagnolo BIG corkscrew
are designed so that the vermilion automatically centers itself on the cork, for optimal
extraction every time.

Campagnolo’s signature artisanship gives the corkscrew its very own distinctive,
unique personality. Each stage of its manufacture takes place in Vicenza, in the hands
of those who, for years, have used their experience to make Campagnolo products.

ULTRA-LOW FRICITION
POSST OBJECT comes with Rex Domestique ultra-low friction, all-condition, solvent free, non-vaporising
wax-based elastic liquid chain lube. This new, premium quality chain lube from Finland is made by ski wax
brand Rex, known for producing exceptional quality ski waxes. Dyno-tested against 55 other lubes by two
acknowledged independent laboratories, Rex chain lube was the lowest friction lube the laboratories had
ever tested. Combined with high elasticity and excellent water repellency, it outperformed mineral oil and
solvent-based lubes by a significant margin.

RELUBRICATION

Wipe the the chain with a cloth or tissue until it appears clean. Apply lube 1 drop per roller like instructed
above. Thorough cleaning is only needed if the chain extremely contaminated. Depending on conditions,
typical relubrication interval is usually 500 km.

You can buy REX products from our store at Chennai or online at www.posst.bike

Q My chain is making noise

just after 20 km, what is
the problem?
The longevity of the lubrication is extremely
dependant on the conditions. 500 km with
one lubrication can be easily achieved in dry
summer conditions on a road bike, but the
same distance in muddy MTB conditions can
even wear your chainrings and cassette to

use. So the clean/wipe and reapplication of
