It’s that time of the week again already? Damn where does time go. This weeks Products: column is all sorts of dialed. We’re going to take a closer look at the Sano brakes from The Shadow Conspiracy, Colony‘s new “Statement” t-shirt, Max Bimar’s signature Sacre Bleu frame from Deluxe, Madera‘s Mast stem that now comes in a bunch of sizes and the Mutant Bikes Corvo bars. I got things to do and places to be so let’s get into this right now!

Since Sunday‘s inception, they’ve always been pretty notorious for pushing things with unique frame technology. When I think of their frames the wave tubing and the sturdy down tube gussets come to mind. For 2013, they have revamped their entire line of frames with new geometry, new features, new colorways and even a few new names. I figured it would be a good idea to get ahold of Jim Cielencki to find out more about the changes they’ve made for the line that started hitting shops the other week. Let’s see what he had to say!
