With the 2017 product starting to land at BMX shops and mail-orders worldwide, it’s a perfect time to take a closer look at all of the new frames and parts that Mutiny Bikes have to offer to their line up! As always, Mutiny did an amazing job of creating a line that is not only strong, but aesthetically pleasing, too. They also have avoided having a massive line of products, by only creating products that they feel they can offer something of value, versus just pumping out every part possible and slapping a Mutiny logo on it. You can get a full look at everything with photos, full specs and details below! Let’s start things off with the frames and bars.
2017 Comb Frame
The Jeff Wescott signature Comb frame is looking dialed with a fresh coat of Honey Red paint. This frame is made from 4130 Sanko chromoly tubing with a 74.9-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 11.8″ bottom bracket height, 9″ standover height and a 13.2″ – 13.75″ chainstay length. You can find a taller 125mm Integrated, offset thickness head tube that is heat-treated for additional strength, top and down tube gussets with the debossed “Badge ‘N Bones” logo, double-butted top tube, straight gauge elliptical down tube to help resist denting, a heat-treated Mid bottom bracket, integrated seat post clamp with the horizontal cut for better clamping with less torque, a custom seat stay bridge, 6mm thick dropouts with integrated chain tensioners and removable brake mounts on the seat stay.
The 2017 Comb frame comes in Honey Red for the only color with 20.8″, 21.1″ and 21.3″ top tube lengths!
Offset thickness, 125mm tall integrated head tube. The offset thickness allows for a stronger weld where the top and down tubes and gussets meet the head tube to help resist cracking.
Custom seat stay bridge and an integrated seat post clamp with the horizontal cut for better clamping with less torque on the frame.
6mm thick dropouts with integrated chain tensioners.
2017 Death Grip Frame
The brand new Dylan Lewis signature Death Grip frame has been getting plenty of buzz thanks to the past few months where Dylan really caught everyones attention at the Van Doren Invitational and Battle of Hastings contests. The Death Grip is made from full 4130 Sanko chromoly tubing with a 74.5-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 11.65″ bottom bracket height, 9.15″ standover height and a 13.7″ – 14.2″ chainstay length.

The Death Grip frame comes in Gloss Raw for the only color with top tube lengths of 21.3″, 21.6″ and 21.8″. This frame is ideal for the taller rider or somebody who loves roasting trails or transitions without the fear of looping out.

2017 Obscura Frame
Next up, we have the Grant Castelluzzo signature Obscura frame. Once again, Mutiny and Grant came up with an amazing color for the frame. The Obscura frame is made from full 4130 Sanko chromoly tubing with a 75-degree head tube angle, 70-degree seat tube angle, 11.8″ bottom bracket height, 8.95″ standover height and a 12.75″ – 13.6″ chainstay length. The frame has the offset thickness, heat-treated, 125mm tall Integrated head tube with top and down tube gussets with the debossed Badge N Bones logo, a double butted top tube, straight gauge elliptical down tube to help resist denting, heat-treated Mid bottom bracket, Integrated seat post clamp with the horizontal cut to give better clamping with less torque, a custom seat stay bridge with the Mutiny logo and 6mm thick dropouts with the Integrated chain tensioners. This frame is completely brakeless, so there are no mounts. The steeper head tube, higher bottom bracket and shorter chainstay length makes for a responsive frame that’s ideal for technical street riding.
The 2017 Obscura frame comes in Translucent Olive for the only color with 20.2″, 20.6″, 20.8″ and 21.1″ top tube lengths available. Also note that this frame has a 70-degree seat tube angle so it makes the frame feel a bit shorter. You can learn about how it all works here — BMX Frame Geometry
