Here’s one we just spotted over on Can You Dig It! The long awaited Tru trails frame from United Bike Co. is OUT NOW. Check out this promo video featuring Tyson Jones-Peni roasting his local trails with pure style, then check out the flipbook below for a better look at the frame.

“Since the KL40 frames were retired back in 2010, we have been looking to fill the void and have a frame that is truly at home in the woods. We put the word out to our riders and by working with the fine folks at FBM, they handcrafted us this beauty in New York with options to suit even the saltiest of trail dogs. One rider that helped a ton with the input on this one was Tyson Jones-Peni and here he talks you through what trails and trail riding mean to him.

Minor Details: BMX Frames

June 24, 2015

When it comes to BMX frames these days, there are a lot of factors that come down to geometry that can alter the way a BMX bike feels and rides. Want to have more balance on your nose? Get a steeper head tube angle. Want to spin better? Get a higher bottom bracket height. Want to manual better? Get a shorter chain stay length. Need something better for barspins? Get something with a taller standover height. What about tailwhips? Shorter standover heights will make it easier to get over the bike. Now days, a 75-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 8.5″ standover height, 11.5″ bottom bracket height and 13.25″ chain stay length are pretty common geometries you will find on a frame. Sure, there might be a handful of frames that have similar (or the exact same) geometry, but what makes them different than the others? The “minor details” that are added on to a frame to give it an aesthetic touch, add strength or make for a cleaner fit when parts are installed. There are A LOT of frame options these days, so we decided to cruise around a handful of BMX brands websites to check out a few frames that have some details that make it stand out from other frames. Let’s take a look!
