Brother Cycles just announced the updated 2025 Stroma, their all-road platform designed to excel in year-round riding around their home turf in the UK, where the weather changes quickly, and you’ll find all manner of surface conditions. Earning its name from a remote, wind-battered island off the northeast coast of Scotland, the Brother Stroma is made in Taiwan from Reynolds 725 steel tubing and comes with a matching full-carbon Brother fork. New for 2025, the fork has been updated to feature internal dynamo cable routing. The frame and fork feature fender eyelets and will clear 32mm tires with fenders or 38mm tires without. Other specs include thru-axle flat-mount dropouts, a 68mm threaded BB, replaceable dropouts, a pair of bottle mounts in the main triangle, fender mounts, and Di2 routing that doubles as rear dynamo routing.
The complete build here showcases a race-ready configuration for riders who want to go fast and light throughout long days on the bike. Introducing this year’s updated model, Brother Cycles co-founder Will Meyer wrote, “We are particularly excited about the launch of the 2025 Stroma, as it’s a product which has been building a strong following over the past few years. When we initially designed this frame, we saw it as a true all-season road bike. However, since its launch, we’ve seen it being used for a whole lot more, from endurance bikepacking events to light gravel riding. As such, we wanted to show it some love in 2025 by making some subtle changes and giving it a bold new look.”
