VonHof ACX Cyclocross Bike

VonHof is a small brand based in Hoboken, New Jersey that focuses on MUSA framesets in steel and aluminum. It contracts with batch builders to create road, mountain and cyclocross bikes. We first saw the Columbus steel ACX last year, but Katherine Cumming raced the company’s aluminum bike a few years ago in China.

VonHof builds the ACX frame with Columbus steel tubing and then adds a plethora of modern technology including an ENVE thru-axle disc fork, 12x142mm rear thru-axle dropouts, flat mount disc brakes and a T47 bottom bracket shell. We found this one built with SRAM Force 1, HiFi tubeless wheels and Ritchey Megabite 700c x 33mm tubeless tires at the ECHOS Communications booth.
