Blackwater Bicycles / Custom Titanium Gravel

3 Notch:
The Blank Canvas

The 3 Notch is where your ideas take form — a titanium gravel platform engineered to be shaped entirely around you. Start with one of our proven stock geometries, then tune the details for your terrain, your fit, your riding style, and the bike you have always wanted to build.

Custom Geometry, fit, mounting options, routing, and ride character can be shaped around your exact needs.
415mm Updated stock chainstay length keeps the platform responsive while leaving room for real gravel setups.
395mm Modern gravel fork axle-to-crown standard for confident handling and larger tire compatibility.
Yours Built as a one-of-a-kind Blackwater machine, not a stock frame with a few small options.
Blank Canvas Platform

Start with a proven shape. Make it entirely yours.

The 3 Notch starts as a clean titanium foundation, then becomes whatever you need it to be. Build it as a fast gravel racer, a long-distance all-road bike, a fully loaded bikepacking rig, or something completely your own.

Geometry, tire clearance, mounts, routing, finish, and component fit can all be tuned around the way you ride and the landscapes you chase.

Fit-Tuned Choose a stock size or adjust reach, stack, angles, and contact points for your exact body position.
Terrain-Tuned Design the frame around fast gravel, mixed roads, bikepacking, chunky terrain, or all-day adventure.
Build-Tuned Plan tire clearance, drivetrain choice, mounts, routing, and cockpit setup before the frame is made.
Purpose-Built A ground-up custom titanium build shaped around your ride, not someone else’s stock idea.
How It Works

Your dream bike starts with the details.

Pick from one of the stock geometries below, then decide what should stay, what should change, and what needs to be built around your riding style.

1. Choose a Base Size Start with the closest stock fit from Extra Small through Extra Large.
2. Tune the Numbers Adjust geometry, tire clearance, handling, mounts, and fit details.
3. Pick the Build Select drivetrain, wheels, cockpit, fork, finish, and custom features.
4. Make It Yours The result is a one-of-a-kind Blackwater built around your vision.
Why 3 Notch Exists

Not a stock frame. A starting point.

The 3 Notch is for riders who know a bike should match the person riding it. Instead of forcing your fit, terrain, and goals into a fixed production frame, 3 Notch gives you a proven titanium platform that can be shaped into the bike you actually want.

Custom Geometry

Start from a stock size or tune reach, stack, angles, chainstay length, bottom bracket drop, and fit numbers to match your riding position.

Custom Features

Add the mounts, routing, tire clearance, drivetrain compatibility, and fork details that make sense for your exact build.

Custom Purpose

Build it for speed, comfort, distance, bikepacking, racing, all-road use, or a balanced gravel setup that does a little of everything.

Geometry

Stock geometry, ready to customize.

Use these numbers as the starting point for your 3 Notch build. The stock geometry below has been updated with a 415mm chainstay length and 395mm fork axle-to-crown.

Practice makes perfect
These are actually three separately assembled screens that link together once ready, so I could gauge the improvement in my capability as a screen-assembling artisan. I’m 71 so getting down on the floor wasn’t all that easy. The first screen took 90 minutes as I tried to decipher the typically less than ideal pictorial directions, and to figure out how to position everything (including myself) working in a fairly small space. But by the third assembly I was a skilled craftsman and assembled it in 15 minutes. They look nice and do what I had hoped. All the parts were there, well-labeled, and the threading on the screw mountings were adequate although one required a bit more cajoling than the rest and worried me a bit until I finally got it right.

Not good quality
Color: Black, Size: Four Panel
Not the easiest thing to assemble, the screwdriver provided doesn't work so I hope you have your own. The fabric panels were at least an inch too short and weren't long enough to stretch to top and bottom, strain on velcro made them pop off with the slightest movement. Once assembled the panels were assembled they weren't stable at all and would fall over easily. Not very safe

Better than expected!
I ordered this room divider for my small apartment and the quality is surprisingly pretty good for the price paid — sturdy metal poles, mid-weight fabric panels enough for privacy (i.e.: not so see-through), brand new screws, and thick plastic end connectors. Instructions are figures only — READ THE PICTURES CAREFULLY! Highly recommend having a second person to help with assembling the divider panels together. This took me and my friend over an hour to assemble partly because there’s only one hex key to tighten the screws (and I forgot to add the plastic end connectors to the #3-labeled poles, so I had to take it apart and then set it up again). Overall satisfied with this purchase.

Privacy screen
I purchased this to set up as a privacy wall to make a makeshift guest “room” in our living room. It is a beautiful wine color it was very easy to assemble it took me like maybe all of five minutes and it’s very lightweight and easy to move. I think $50+ is steep for this item- it’s literally cloth stretched across a cheap frame- but it is not see through and it worked for what we needed. I would recommend it. There is a gap at the bottom that a cat can easily walk under or a nosey dog can poke their head through- but for people privacy it’s very good- and tall!

Wrong pieces included
Color: Black, Size: Four Panel
Was only able to use 3 of the panels the last poles were different from the others. The panels that we were able to put together are very nice and seems durable.
