The 4130 Road frame and fork set in Sapphire & Chrome is a deep metallic blue frame and fork with a white State script on the down tube. It is the double butted chromoly frame and matching fork from State's 4130 Road, sold as the two parts that decide how a bike rides.
Every interface on it is an established standard: a threaded bottom bracket, a 27.2mm seatpost, quick release hubs and caliper rim brakes, with room for 700 x 40c tires and a 1x or 2x drivetrain.
Key Features
- Double butted 4130 chromoly. Frame and fork are both 4130 chromoly, double butted for strength without extra weight, and TIG welded.
- 1x or 2x. The frame takes a full 2x drivetrain up to a 50/34T compact double with a front derailleur, or a simple 1x.
- Room for 700 x 40c. Clearance for the frame and fork, the same on a 1x or 2x build. Run 28c for a fast summer setup or 38c to 40c for comfort on rough roads.
- Rim brake standards. Caliper rim brakes and 100mm front, 130mm rear quick release hubs, with decades of rim brake wheels and groupsets to build from.
- Geometry tuned by size. A 72° head angle on the 49 and 52 keeps toe overlap manageable, 73.5° on the larger sizes, and seat angles run from 74.5° down to 73° as the frame grows.

State weighs each size as frame, fork, headset and seatpost clamp. Sizes overlap on purpose: between two, the smaller gives a more nimble, upright fit and the larger stretches the rider out.

Questions
Is the fork included?
Yes. The set is the frame, a matching 4130 chromoly fork with a 1 1/8" threadless steerer, the headset and the seatpost clamp.
Disc or rim brakes?
Rim brakes. The frame and fork take caliper brakes and quick release hubs at 100mm front and 130mm rear, which makes it a good home for a rim brake groupset.
Which size fits?
State lists both rider height and inseam for each size and calls inseam the more reliable guide when choosing a cockpit.
What is needed to finish the build?
Wheels and tires, a 1x or 2x drivetrain, a crankset and bottom bracket for a 68mm English shell (square taper or external), caliper brakes, handlebar, stem, a 27.2mm seatpost, saddle and pedals.
