help Calfee Design Dragonfly FAQ
What makes the Calfee Dragonfly different from a molded carbon road bike?
The Dragonfly uses carbon tubes joined by sculpted carbon-fiber lugs rather than a conventional one-piece molded frame. Calfee also combines high-modulus carbon with boron reinforcement in its current Dragonfly tubing.
Can a Calfee Dragonfly be ordered with custom geometry?
Yes, Calfee offers custom frame geometry as an option. Buyers can also specify details such as frame stiffness, cable routing, brake type, tire clearance, and rear-axle spacing.
Does the Calfee Dragonfly support disc brakes?
Current Dragonfly Classic road frames are available in both disc-brake and rim-brake configurations. This matters when buying used because older frames may have been constructed specifically for rim brakes.
Can a Calfee Dragonfly be packed for airline travel?
Calfee offers optional S and S Machine couplers that allow the frame to separate for compact packing. A Dragonfly without those couplers will require a normal full-size bicycle case.
