Tout Terrain Bike Models Overview


Tout Terrain offers a wide range of high quality frames for touring, commuting, and adventuring by bike. With so many options, it can be challenging to determine which frame is best for your riding style and intended usage. “Tout Terrain” means all-terrain in French, and the name correlates with a design philosophy that their bicycles can be used in a variety of situations and cover a variety of uses. In some cases, multiple model names apply to the same frame, and indicate different wheel sizes or other features. Here’s a quick guide to help you make sense of the offerings.

Tout Terrain’s lineup is split into four categories. Each frame includes a variety of clever features that cleanly integrate internal shifting systems, belt drives, and facilitate the use of dynamo lighting and USB charging. Frames in a given category may be optimized for an intended use, but they can also be used in other situations.

Tout Terrain Bike Categories:

Expedition: Designed to meet the demands of the world traveler/dedicated bicycle tourer
Trekking: The most versatile category, encompassing commuting and touring
X.Over: Focused on bike packing, gravel, fitness, and adventure riding
Urban: Sleeker, streamlined options for the urban commuter

Other Common Designators:

Xplore/Xpress: Designed specifically for use with Pinion’s range of high-performance, low-maintenance gearboxes
Trapez: Step-through frame design that’s ideal for smaller riders or those with limited flexibility. It also allows for easy dismounts in any type of clothing.

Standard Frame Features:

- Steel frames
- Belt drive compatibility
- Steering stop
- Dynamo wire routing
- Expedition and Trekking frames come with a sturdy integrated rear rack.
