The Juliana Quincy is a fine-tuned adventure machine. It is the women’s version of the Santa Cruz Stigmata, with a women’s specific seat and narrow handlebars. The bike is comfortable, responsive and agile with a carbon frame, drop bars, long wheelbase and wide tires. The bike can be used for gravel grinding, bikepacking, cyclocross racing, commuting and road riding with the right tire and wheel setup. The bike does not fit women over 5’ 8”. The price tag on the bike is high compared to many other adventure gravel bikes, but so is the quality of it’s components.

If I had the money to justify such an outlay, I could quite easily imagine the Juliana Quincy- plus an extra set of wheels and tyres – taking the place of a road bike, gravel bike and hardtail.
