Brother Cycles Mr Wooden Frameset – Metallic Brown
Mr Wooden is Brother Cycles’ steel randonneur and touring frameset, designed around 650b wheels and rim brakes. It is a starting point for a road-and-gravel build that combines traditional component standards with room for larger tyres and practical luggage fittings. This version introduces metallic brown paint, hand-drawn branding and a metal headbadge.
The double-butted 4130 chromoly frame has an ED coating beneath the paint. Quick-release dropouts, a threaded bottom bracket and a straight 1 1/8in headset standard make it possible to build with compatible classic components alongside modern parts. Tyre room reaches 650b x 50mm, and the low-mid trail fork is intended to work with a front luggage setup.
Front and rear rack fittings, mudguard mounts and three bottle positions are provided on every size. Downtube bosses can carry cable stops or compatible downtube shifters. This listing supplies the frameset; the pictured complete builds illustrate the possibilities rather than the included equipment.
