We saw the Romero at this year’s Made Bike Show. In the latest video from Stinner Frameworks, Aaron and Chris discuss the Romero in detail. This US-made chassis is built around a steel front triangle paired with an aluminum rear end, combining the ride quality, flexibility, and fast iteration of steel with the performance advantages of aluminum where it matters most.
Using the Ministry Cycles 3VO suspension platform, the team focused on creating a well-balanced, neutral, and highly adaptable trail bike. One that pedals efficiently, remains compliant on rough terrain, and can evolve into everything from a capable enduro bike to a lighter, faster trail or XC-leaning machine.
This bike is not the final iteration; it’s a prototype built to test ideas, validate suspension performance, and push Stinner toward a production bike they’re proud to send into the world.
