"Fresh off winning the Highlight of the Show title at DT Swiss's recent Craft Bike Days, Mason unveils a new Exposure Primitiva adventure gravel bike prototype. Created together with their Italian framebuilding partner Cicli Barco, this Exposure Primitiva prototype is the first-ever steel Mason bike to get fully integrated internal cable routing. And while it's not the first Mason adventure bike to get a suspension fork, Barco managed to incorporate the 40mm DT gravel fork without impacting the Exposure's frame Stack."
"This Mason x Barco Exposure Primitiva concept bike won the top award at DT Swiss Craft Bike Days by combining the latest in gravel bike tech with classic handmade steel construction, even showing off its welded & brazed construction with a partially raw finish. What you get is huge tire clearance, a 40mm travel gravel-specific suspension fork, fully integrated cable routing hidden inside the headset, all the mounting points to carry all of your gear, and trusted standards like T47, UDH,"
The Exposure Primitiva is a steel adventure gravel prototype built by Mason with Italian framebuilder Cicli Barco featuring fully integrated internal cable routing hidden inside the headset. The frame offers huge tire clearance, extensive mounting points for gear, and a partially raw finish that reveals welded and brazed construction. Cicli Barco's CNC-machined reinforced headtube reduces headtube extension to retain the Exposure's standard stack height despite using a 40mm travel DT gravel fork. The prototype uses modern standards including a T47 bottom bracket, UDH, and a classic round seatpost. The F132 One fork should become available from DT Swiss starting January 2026.
