    Shifters

    Shifter bosses on the downtube allow the Marrakesh to be set up with indexed or friction shift levers directly or adapted with housing stops to allow use of bar end, trigger, or integrated brake/shift road levers on the bars. This versatility increases the odds of cobbling together a shifting drivetrain anywhere you might need to...when the adventure really begins

    Racks

    Our Alternator 135 Low Deck rack is specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with the Marrakesh frame and keep the load as low and close to center as possible. The Marrakesh fork comes loaded with both Three-Pack bosses and low rider bosses. This allows the use of either Anything Cages or low rider racks if panniers are desired. And don’t forget to consider the use of a frame bag within the front triangle
