Subrosa Bringing Back The Double Top Tube?

February 20, 2016

Here’s a little something we caught a look at when Kyle Hart posted up this shot of his current Subrosa setup that he’s running with a couple different prototype pieces on Twitter. If you look at the top tube, you might notice that the tubing is very narrow, which leads us to believe (we haven’t got an actual confirmation), that Subrosa are looking to bring back the double top tube once again. Over the years, Subrosa have offered the double top tube on their Double Top Tube Pandora frame, then a 24″ version, and even a Flatland specific version, but it hasn’t been a part of their line up for a little while now. Kyle used the #Trillicus hashtag with the photo, which leads us to believe it will be a double top tube version of the latest Hoang Tran signature Villicus frame. You can see the double top tube in the shadow of the bike above. We have also updated this post with a few more photos below!

We’ll let you know when we find out more!

How BMX Frame Stays Are Bent

February 17, 2016

A video posted by Chris Moeller (@moeller_chris) on Feb 16, 2016 at 1:53pm PST

Two in a row from Chris Moeller this morning! Here we have a look at the seat stay tubing being bent for the Brian Foster frame from Fit Bike Co. at the S&M Bikes warehouse out in California. Another one of those not so crazy videos, but still interesting to see. You would think it would be a fancier machine, but it looks to be pretty much man power, a little machine power and leverage to make it happen. It’s also interesting since this is just one small part of the frame building process. We’re loving these behind the scenes production clips!

Sneak Peek: Stranger – Adam LZ Signature Frame

February 6, 2016

Update: The frame is available now. Check it out here — Stranger BMX – LZ Frame

Here’s a sneak peek for you Adam LZ fans out there. It looks like he’s running a prototype sample of his new signature frame from Stranger! Not much for information on the frame, but just looking at it, it appears to be using a hydro formed top and down tube similar to the Wethepeople Envy frame, possibly a steeper 76-degree head tube angle (guessing by looking at the photo), a lower seat tube height (Possibly upper 7″ length?) and investment cast drop outs. The frame also features a metallic dark green color that looks good, too. Expect full details closer to the release. (Full details on the frame here: Stranger BMX – LZ Frame)

We want to hear from you! Let us know what you think in the comments below!

FBM – Research and Development

January 12, 2016

There’s an interesting write up on the FBM website by Steve Crandall about the process that went into re-designing their Steadfast frame. It’s a little different than most, with inspiration with the process that Bianchi does, Steve spent a lot of time testing out the frame through his travels to trails, skateparks, pools and more. There’s a ton of great photos to go along with this one. Check it out right here.
