We just posted up Subrosa’s latest print ad and people were stoked on that Cheetah kit, so we figured we better give you guys a closer look. Below you can find full specs and details on Raphael Jeroma Williams’ signature colorway kit that is OUT NOW!
First up we have Hoang Tran’s signature Villicus Prime II frame in Raphael’s Cheetah colorway. This 4130 chromoly frame has a 75-degree head tube angle, 69-degree seat tube angle, 8.75″ stand over height, 11.6″ bottom bracket height and a 13.5″ chain stay (centered in dropout) length! You can find a gusset on the down tube, double butted top and down tubes, an investment cast wishbone for the chain stay bridge and an investment cast bridge on the seat stay bridge, flat ended seat and chain stays at the drop out for better clearance for hub guards, laster cut 6mm thick drop outs with integrated chain stays, an integrated seat post clamp and removable brake mounts! This frame has top tube sizes of 20.5″, 20.75″ and 21″and a weight of 4.8 lbs. (20.5″). It’s also available in black and copper flake if you were curious.
This frame is available for $329.99 on Dan’s Comp or you can have your local shop hit up Sparky’s Distribution to get one ordered up today!
Next up in the kit, we have the the Battle fork. This is Subrosa‘s new fork that they have added to their line up for 2014. This 4130 chromoly fork with a 1-piece steerer tube is full Deathproof post-weld heat treated. The fork features fluted, butted, oversized and tapered tubing to make for a stronger all around fork, investment cast 6mm thick drop outs with a 32mm offset, an oversized 38mm crown race for more support for the larger legs and a larger weld area, a 6061- hard anodized alloy top cap, an anti-rust ED coating and cut lines and recessed threads on the steerer tube. This fork weighs in at 36.2 oz. with matte black and chrome to go along with the color options if you aren’t feeling the Cheetah black.
The Hoang Tran Villicus bars also got the Ralphael Jeroma Williams Cheetah colorway as well. These 13-butted chromoly bars are post-weld Deathproof heat-treated and come in rise options of 8.25″, 8.5″, 8.75″, 9″ and 9.5″, a width of 29″, 12-degrees of backsweep and 1-degree of upsweep. You can find machined cut guides if you aren’t feeling the width, an ED anti-rust coating and masked knurling to keep the bars from slipping. These bars weigh in at 25.9 oz. (8.25″) and come in a handful of colors outside of this Cheetah colorway; matte black, trans orange, matte gun metal gray, chrome, money green, dr. maroon, space black and crispy cream.
If you want to go full Cheetah, you better pick up the Cheetah pivotal seat as well, right? This seat is available in Mid size only with a cheetah print microfiber cover and plastic bumpers on the bottom to help resist ripping and tearing. The seat has a hollow pivotal bolt, comes in the black on grey color only with a weight of 11.2 oz.
Other than the frame, the rest of these items should be available on Dan’s Comp soon. If you can’t wait, I’d highly suggest you get to your local shop and have them get ahold of Sparky’s Distribution for you so you don’t have to wait!
