SHAN Nº5 JPS, how it’s made?
IT ALL STARTS FROM HIGH QUALITY STANDARD STEEL TUBES
Tailor made steel tubes for our frames
Production Privée has made the choice to develop its own tubing series rather then use what is available to all bicycle manufacturers on the market. This approach allows us total freedom in the design of our frames, without being reliant on “catalogue” tube specifications that result in standardized frames.
MCS: Super cromo
The basis of our tubes is Chrome-Molybdenum 4130 steel (called CrMo), sourced from Japan, and with exceptional characteristics. Our tubes are then finished depending on our specific requirements: shaping, diameter, thickness, butting lengths, thermal treatments, all taken into consideration depending on our specifications.
