More Info

The Piuma frame like all Cherubims is made from custom butted & custom drawn Kasei. The selection of different tubing diameters and oversize chain stays makes a frame which is of course comfortable but also will feel fast and responsive. The Piuma can be built with a carbon fork but comes standard with a steel fork with the Cherubim signature crown.

The construction is a beautiful mix of lugs and clean fillet brazing. The finish like all Cherubim frames is out of this world with stunning details and classic water transferred graphics. 

- Weight: 1.8kg, 2.5kg including the fork and headset for 55cm frame. 
- Built with Cherubim's signature braze ons

Brand Info

Cherubim frames are made by the great Shin-ichi Konno. Shinichi is from a family of frame builders with his father building Cherubims for over thirty years, and his uncle starting the famous 3 Rensho brand.

Cherubim is continuing the family tradition pushing the envelope for steel frames using custom built hardware such as specially bent tubes and incredibly light custom tubing from Japanese manufacturer Kasei. He has been honoured with the Best Track Bike award and Presidents Choice at the North American Hand Built Cycle Show in 2009 and 2010. In 2011, we took a Cherubim Piuma to Bespoked Bristol, where it won the Best Road Bike award.

The heart of Cherubim's works, however, is in track bikes. In previous years Cherubim have built for Olympic teams and champion keirin riders. Cherubim still offers custom NJS models as well as full custom track frames.
