The frame features an offset thickness head tube with integrated internal gussets on the top and down tubes for increased strength, multi-butted and tapered top and down tubes, a multi-butted down tube, Investment cast bridges on the seat and chain stays, a 4130 chromoly Investment cast seat post clamp with the Horizontal Cut System for improved clamping, the Easy Brake System removable brake mounts and Investment cast drop outs with removable chain tensioner. The 2015 Isla frame will be available with a 20.8” top tube and a weight of 4.85 lb. (2,200 grams).
The Isla 2 bars for 2015 will now come with a new taller 9.25” inch rise with a 29” width, 12-degrees of backsweep and 2-degrees of upsweep. This gives us a broad range of bar heights from 8.5” – 9.25” in our complete line of bars.

Here it is! The new Shane Weston video from Fly Bikes you have probably been see in getting hyped up on Instagram or Twitter the past few days! Check out Shane putting a hurting on a bunch of rad spots, then take a closer look at his signature Isla frame and bars in a quick video below! This is one (or two) videos you don’t want to pass up!
““Shane’s one in a million, they definitely broke the mold when they made him, his personality is as big as his hair & matched only by his love for guttural screaming, bike throwing & basketball. It’s easy to see that he doesn’t follow a regular path and has a unique approach to riding, It’s easy to fit in, but it sets him apart from the crowd and his bike set up is designed to reflect his style of riding.
Enjoy watching Shane put his new and beefed-up Fly Bikes “Isla” signature line through its paces as well as give us the breakdown of the complete line and reason why its designed the way it is.”
