The OPEN U.P.P.E.R. CONCE.PT is a masterclass in "Reduce to the Max" engineering. Representing the first phase of OPEN’s new generation of gravel bikes, this limited-edition machine (only 250 units worldwide) is the brand's first frame manufactured by CarbonTeam in Portugal. It takes the legendary compliance of the original U.P. and refines it with a racy, aerodynamic front end, a T47 threaded bottom bracket, and a minimalist 1x-only design. Built for riders who demand road-bike speed with world-class gravel capability, the CONCE.PT is the ultimate expression of gravel performance. "Made in Freedom" Portuguese Construction: Shifting production from Asia to Europe, this frame is handcrafted at CarbonTeam in Portugal, ensuring the highest level of carbon layup precision and ethical manufacturing. Aero-Optimized Front End: Features a narrow, deep headtube and a subtly reshaped downtube that acts as a truncated airfoil to reduce drag where it matters most, without sacrificing the frame's vertical compliance. 1x Electronic Specific Design: To keep the frame clean and light (approx. 850g), OPEN removed all front derailleur and mechanical cable ports, optimizing the frame exclusively for wireless groupsets like SRAM AXS. Legendary "Wire Stay" Compliance: The rear triangle retains OPEN’s trademark pencil-thin seatstays and vertically thin chainstays, which are designed to "bow" under load to absorb high-frequency vibrations. Integrated One-Piece Cockpit: The CONCE.PT comes as a "Chassis" including a proprietary one-piece carbon bar/stem combo that fully integrates all hydraulic hoses for a seamless, wind-slicing profile.
