MATERIAL

853 steel is Reynolds’ premium grade of ferrous steel. Renowned for producing light, stiff, yet supple frames, 853 is the frame builder’s choice when only the best will do.

Available in a range of butting profiles and diameters 853 finds a home in our of mountain bikes due to an unmistakable responsiveness and toughness. 853 is an air-hardening steel with particular benefits in the weld area where unlike conventional steel alloys 853 strength can actually increase after cooling in air immediately after welding. 853 is heat-treated to give high strength and damage resistance and the steel properties allow thin walls to be used so that our lower-weight but fatigue-resistant structures can be made.

Why Reynolds 853 steel works: 

UTS: 1250-1400 MPa, density 7.78 gm/cc. The chemistry includes carbon, manganese, chrome, molybdenum, silicon, and copper. The interaction between the alloys results in a fine grain structure that forms with air-cooling without the traditional “quenching” (fast cooling in water or oil) process. High strength from bainitic phase steel after a series of cold-working operations.
Additionally, heat treatment to the 853 specification raises the yield strength for the entire tube, increasing dent and impact resistance.

Pace then take their own high performance chrome moly tubes for the rear stays, BB and head tube and marry these together to form a single high performance structure with superb alignment and accuracy
