The Flint. Ignite Your Gravel Experience.
The Litespeed Flint FI brings titanium gravel versatility—and for the first time, clean full internal housing integration—together as an economical package. Off-road sessions with friends, epic race adventures, bikepacking, and more: the Flint is the sharpest blade in your quiver.
The Flint Hills surrounding Emporia Kansas are iconic for the geology that exists on its surface. A quiet foil, the flint stones that make up the course for Unbound Gravel can serve as the foundation to greatness. Or reach up and slash a sidewall, dashing hopes. Flint can be a spark—or a silent threat.
Tougher than its namesake, the Litespeed Flint Fi is ready for anything. The Flint takes the spirit of adventure and high-speed action, adds a healthy dose of rowdy good times—and packs in a wildly affordable titanium bike that floats over the roughest terrain you aspire to traverse. The Flint is your all-in-one, good-times gravel rig.
The Flint features 3AL/2.5V titanium, fabricated at our factory in Chattanooga, Tenn. With a clean braceless seatstay design for full mud-shedding clearance, super clean cable routing, tons of tire clearance for sure footing, and more, take it all on—no matter the trail. From fast, groomed gravel races to forests or desert singletrack sessions with friends, you can climb and sprint with pure energy.
If you think full cable integration is only for the premium models? Think again. The Flint FI brings clean, aero cable-free presentation with a fully integrated cockpit, fork, and bottom bracket. Keeping all wires and housing cleanly tucked within the bike, and out of the wind. Top-tier presentation, available to everyone—on the Flint FI.
Massive tire clearance variance gives you ample choice: select from low-volume file tread for speed, or knobby high-volume tires up to 48mm when faced with loose rock, deep sand, or tacky mud. Add loads of accessory options from rack mounts to nutrition and extra hydration/storage mounts, and you're fully packed for your wildest long adventures. Stable without sacrificing agility, the Flint moves with ease where you want—when you want.
And as always, Litespeed is titanium tough, dialed to tackle everything you throw at it. Mud, sand, rocks—all batted away with ease. With six sizes plus custom options, as well as your choice of crank length, bar width, and stem length, your perfect fit is assured.
Load up for a day of tackling the trails with the crew or a solo weekend commune with nature. Even the race start line chasing that well-earned finish line beverage! The Flint is your ace in the hole—every time.
