We thought we were closer to our destination, this hut settled in the Quebec Eastern Township forest. Doing a fat-bikejoring outing was a great way to share an adventure with our dogs.
The path taken until then was rather on hard snow, but we suddenly found ourselves in an area where we were definitely the first to venture since the last snowfall.
With our Husky, Loulou, and Rambo, our male Labrador, attached to the Chic-Chocs fatbikes, it was without too much effort that we cleared this zone. About 15cm of fresh snow was covering the ground, and that feeling of doing the first tracks is something special.
Anyone who travelled to a backcountry hut knows this feeling when you finally reach the destination. And we were lucky enough that day that someone was there just before us and had lit a fire we could enjoy.

The Boreal is an all-terrain touring bike designed to carry its rider in a comfortable upright position on trips and expeditions. The frame and fork are sturdy, and the components are reliable and low-maintenance. Capable of taking loads, the Boreal is the perfect partner for your most ambitious projects.
This bike share the same geometry and features as the Boreal-Pinion. Unlike the latter, which is equipped with an internal drivetrain, we build the Boreal with either a Shimano SLX 1x12 or a Shimano Cues 6000/8000 2x11 drivetrain. The 2x11 option offers a huge range of gear ratios, 669% versus 510% for the 1x12. Building the bike around the Rohloff Speedhub 14-speed hub is also available as an option.
For half-road/half-off-road touring, 29×2.0 (700×50 equivalent) tires will provide an optimum ride. For off-road use, 27.5″ tires of equivalent diameter, i.e. 27.5×2.6, are the appropriate choice. The two 32-spoke wheel options (for greater durability) are offered with the purchase of the complete bike. In both options, no lack of mud clearance while the frame and fork can accommodate 29×2.8 tires.
*** Refer to the specification list for component details.

The Chic-Chocs has proven its abilities over the past few years in endurance races and winter expeditions. Whether it's for the Raid du Fjord, the Wendigo Ultra, or riding with confidence on groomed trails, the Chic-Chocs delivers.
A stable geometry with a long wheelbase increases traction and flotation on soft surfaces. In addition, the Chic-Chocs is designed with a 205mm q-factor, the narrowest available for use with tires up to 5" wide. Not to be overlooked for an ergonomic position.
Two Shimano drivetrains available with RaceFace cranksets and cockpit. Quality SunRingle rims and hubs (ready for -30degC!), and studdable tires that can be easily converted tubeless complete the package.
Throw on some 29x3" wheels when the snow melts, and you've got a 4-season bike ready for backcountry bikepacking trips!

Our selection of Reynolds 725 tubing gives this frame just the right amount of suppleness and responsiveness, while keeping the weight reasonable. A 67deg steering angle and 75deg seat angle strike a balance between modern and progressive geometry, without falling into an overly radical design. The 435mm chainstay length offers a centered position on the bike (front-center versus rear-center ratio), and can be increased for even greater stability when a rear rack is used.
* Complete bike (starts at $2949 CAD)
* The frameset (carbon fork) comes with wheel axles, headset installed, seatpost collar and frame protectors. (1649$ CAD)
* The frame only option comes with the rear wheel axle and seatpost collar. (1199$ CAD)
* The Rohloff option comes with the Speedhub 500/14 A12 DB PM black, the 180mm rear disc, the shifter and everything needed to install the hub on the frame. (+1899$ CAD)

The only one of its kind, the Torngat Ti is the first titanium fat bike to offer two crankset spindle length setups (Q-factor), to suit all your type of riding. A versatile model, both lightweight and durable, that can be used for a wide range of adventures, making it the perfect bike for both trail riding and expeditions during summer and winter. The Torngat Ti is ready to tackle any terrain, without compromise.
By using one of the two crankset axle provided with the bike, you can configure it to minimize the Q-factor depending on how you want to use it:
27.5'' x 4.5'' tires (the widest fat bike tires on the market) for soft surfaces: standard 205mm Q-factor.
27.5×4'' tires for hard-surface fat bike configuration: narrow 185mm Q-factor for more ergonomic positioning.
29×2.5''-3'' tires for mountain or all-terrain use: narrow 185mm Q-factor for a comfortable pedaling position.
Our Torngat Ti, like all our bikes, is assembled to order and is therefore available as a frameset kit or as a complete bike with various customization possibilities.
*Frameset includes carbon fork, headset, wheel axles and seat post collar.
