The MIN.D. California represents a refined evolution of Open Cycle's road frame philosophy—classic aesthetics paired with cutting-edge engineering. Built using advanced carbon layup and domestic manufacturing techniques, this frame achieves exceptional lightness (775g raw, including seatmast) without compromising the comfort and geometry that define the MIN.D. line. What sets the California apart is its stiffness distribution, which translates to noticeably sharper handling, climbing precision, and cornering response. Like the original MIN.D., it features Open's signature continuous seatmast, race-ready geometry, and generous tire clearance for versatility. The frame ships raw—an industrial carbon finish that reveals the material's authentic structure and appeals to riders who value authenticity or plan custom paint work. This approach ensures every California frame is either ridden raw or finished to individual specification, making each build genuinely unique. Contact us for standard custom paint options.
