Broke off

Some outsourcing

I won't be in the shop for a few days due to a torn kee and wrist that I earned in Austin. I got dropped-in-on by a brakeless rider mid bowl carve. I had a good seven hours of riding in before that though

Buddy's 20 666er

5.59 lbs.. not too heavy considering the straight gauge DT, a 23.1" TT and a longer seat tube.








A heat treated straight gauge down tube... One could probably grind a rail on this DT and not leave a dent. Unfortunately these tubes were only available in a shorter length (too short for suspended frames).

Σ 13.6 - shortest 26 chainstays ever in the Earth

Cole will need to chop that fork down to 450mm to get it in the intended static geometry



 I spent some time on this seat stay brace. There wasn't enough room for a curved tube brace and a straight tube wouldn't look right with all of the curves on this frame.
