Revel has launched the Ranger Ti, a high-performance mountain bike frame that combines a titanium front triangle with the carbon rear from the Ranger V3. This exclusive offering is limited to 10 individually numbered framesets.
Why it matters
The new design integrates advanced manufacturing to maintain precise geometry while offering the unique durability and ride quality of titanium. This release marks a significant engineering milestone for riders seeking a boutique, limited-production frame.
The Ranger Ti frameset is a limited-run product manufactured with a titanium front triangle and carbon rear, weighing 8.02 pounds for a size Large. The design relies on 3D printed junctions, though its long-term durability metrics are currently unknown.
The players
Revel
A mountain bike manufacturer known for developing full-suspension frames and proprietary suspension kinematics.
The details
The Ranger Ti utilizes 3D printed components for the headtube, shock mounts, bottom bracket, and pivot interfaces. These stiff 3D printed junctions are sleeved and welded to titanium tubing to form the front triangle. By utilizing additive manufacturing, the engineers achieved precise pivot point placement that maintains the exact kinematics of the carbon Ranger V3.
Timeline
2016: The founding team launched Why Cycles.
2023: Why Cycles merged with Revel.
Summer 2025: Project RaTical was shown.
October 14, 2026: Revel announced the Ranger Ti.
Before December 31, 2026: Frames are expected to ship.
Health Landscape
This release follows the development trajectory established by Project RaTical, which serves as a technological precursor to this production frame. It highlights an industry-wide shift toward using additive manufacturing to preserve bike geometry while experimenting with material stiffness.
The use of titanium frames and specific kinematics can influence bike handling and rider fatigue over long sessions. If you are considering this equipment, it is worth discussing the impact of frame weight and material compliance on your specific riding style and injury prevention needs with your coach.
The takeaway
The Ranger Ti represents a convergence of titanium durability and high-precision 3D printing. Riders interested in high-end frames should track the performance of these early production runs to see if the weight-to-stiffness ratio meets their personal riding requirements.
What happens next
The first batch of 10 individually numbered frames is expected to ship to customers before December 31, 2026.
