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.

Academic / Thought-Provoking
Format: Paperback
They Were Her Property: White Women as Slave Owners in the American South is a powerful, eye-opening work that challenges long-held assumptions about slavery and gender in American history. Stephanie E. Jones-Rogers thoroughly dismantles the myth that white women were passive or marginal participants in the institution of slavery. Through meticulous research and extensive use of primary sources, including legal records, letters, and testimonies from formerly enslaved people—the book reveals that many white women were active, knowledgeable, and often brutal slave owners in their own right. What makes this book especially compelling is how it centers the voices and experiences of enslaved people to expose the economic, legal, and physical power white women wielded. Jones-Rogers shows that white women not only benefited from slavery but also enforced it, defended it, and used it to build wealth and social status. The writing is clear, authoritative, and accessible, making complex historical arguments understandable without oversimplifying them. This book is an essential read for anyone studying American history, slavery, race, or gender. It forces readers to confront uncomfortable truths and rethink narratives that have long softened or excused the role of white women in slavery. They Were Her Property is both academically rigorous and deeply impactful—a necessary contribution to honest historical understanding.

Remarkable analysis of slaveholding women in Antebellum America
Format: Paperback
Stephanie Jones-Rogers has provided us with a book that looks at the South's "peculiar institution" through a very different lens - the slaveholders/slaveowners, but this analysis looks at women that owned slaves, thus opening up a new avenue of study that I hadn't previously seen. Jones-Rogers offers a well written account that is rich in historical details. She demonstrates through vivid historical evidence that the women that owned enslaved people were primarily driven by economic motives, and that these women were just as demanding and could be just as harsh as the "typical" slaveowner image that has been crafted over the years. The book is organized thematically, and each chapter demonstrates the economic motivation behind slave ownership. The reader is offered views of everything from young children becoming slave owners when their parents "gifted" them an enslaved person, and how these young girls were taught that this was "property" that could be used as desired to how these female slaveholders would sell their slaves to meet their economic goals. All told, this is a fascinating book that uncovers a long ignored slice of Antebellum American history that makes the historiographical literature of pre-Civil War history much richer.

Poignant, truthful look at women as powerful, business-savvy, yet brutal slave owners
Format: Paperback
Women slave owners were the norm in the South, not the exception. They increased in numbers, stature, and power while the men were off fighting the Civil War. Women often owned the slaves, not the men and knew how to sign prenuptial agreements back then to insure they kept all their property (including slaves) upon divorce or death of their spouse. They traded and bought and sold slaves with business savvy that most men envied. And they could be just as brutal towards their slaves. Ironically, it was the ownership of other people that empowered these women to not be bound to their husbands.

Good history, but not fun, engaging in popular literature.
Format: Paperback
The author is a very competent historian, and proves her points. She does so by stating each thesis and then reciting an exceedingly long string of supporting examples. Rinse and repeat. This is high quality, academic style history, but it’s not very engaging as popular literature. No one’s going to say “I couldn’t put it down.” That being said - I liked it! I learned a lot. Thanks.

Should be required
Format: Paperback
In my opinion, this book should be required reading in high school/college history classes. It’s so important to learn accurate history when it comes to slavery and this book does that. White women played a larger role than we are taught. Please give this a read!
