We first noticed the Quirk Overland in our 2022 Atlas Mountain Race (AMR) rig roundup and reached out to London-based frame builder Quick Cycles to learn more. It turns out the Overland is their take on a do-everything, go-anywhere bikepacking rig, which first debuted at the 2020 AMR. According to Quirk, “The Overland is designed for those wanting to take their off-road adventures to the next level. Our aim was to run big tyres, increase our cargo-carrying capacity but still have a frame that is fast and fun to ride unloaded.” The timing seems fitting for an update, as the 2023 Atlas Mountain Race happens to start today from Marrakesh.

While the overall package remains the same, including custom geometry, Quirk Custom Select tubing, and being handmade in Quirk’s London-based shop, there are some interesting updates worth noting. Quirk has introduced 3D-printed seat tube cluster and dropouts, replacing the previous adjustable version that wasn’t necessary for their customers. Their integrated bolt-on Rack ‘N’ Roll has received some laser-cut mounting plates and custom-machined washers and bolts. The frame is now suspension-corrected for a 100mm travel fork so folks can swap out the steel fork out when some extra cushion is needed.

All other details remain the same, including clearance for 29 x 2.4″ / 27.5 x 2.6″ tires (although customers have fit larger), front and rear internal dynamo routing, and lots of mounts for cages and other gear. The Overland features boost hub spacing, a custom unicrown cargo fork, and framebag mounts within the main triangle. For those after a custom bag, Quirk has partnered with our friends at Wizard Works for the ultimate custom experience.
