VANS “MASH” – STREET

Leave a Comment

Vans have released Part 2 of their “MASH” videos! Last week we got a look at the VANS “MASH” – TRANSITION video, now today we get the Street section that features the Vans Europe street guys absolutely CRUSHING IT. This is over 6 minutes of hammers that you won’t want to miss. Hit that play button and enjoy!

“Today we’ve got the second of the sick two part MASH mixtape series for you courtesy of the VANS squad! Since all their team projects had to be cancelled due to covid, their riders wanted to be active and do their part as soon as they were allowed to go out and be safe again. But with very limited travel options, they all kept it local in their region (or wherever was allowed) and asked their homies to press on that red button. Rich Forne then took the footage and created two heavy mixtape MASH videos.

You’ve seen the Transition heads do their thing, now it’s time to watch what Kilian Roth, Bruno Hoffmann, Courage Adams, Anthony Perrin, Simone Barraco, Alex Donnachie and Kevin Kalkoff got up to. This goes hard as hell!” – DIG

Flybikes – Flat Raw Savanna Frame

Leave a Comment

Check out the new Courage Adams signature Flat Raw Savanna 2 frame!

Flybikes Flat Raw Savanna 2 Frame Courage Adams

With the way this year has been, it’s no surprise that we’ve seen a pretty sporadic release in products this year from brands. There’s been crazy supply issues, delays with manufacturers, shipping container shortages and overloaded delivery services. But, it’s made it so new products are a little more unexpected.

Flybikes have begun releasing some of their new 2021 products, and it looks like Courage Adams signature Savanna 2 frame from Flybikes has been released in this new Flat Raw color! The Savanna 2 frame is made from full 4130 Japanese seamless chromoly tubing with a 75.5-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 11.75″ bottom bracket height, 9.25″ standover height and a 13″ chainstay length. They’ve gone with new tubing specs to help reduce the weight without sacrificing strength, a CNC machined 4.45″ (113mm) tall Integrated headtube, laser cut top and downtube gussets internally and externally (double gussets), multi-butted and tapered tubing, an Investment Cast seatpost clamp, Mid bottom bracket, laser cut seat and chainstay bridges and Investment Cast dropouts with integrated chain tensioners. You can find heat-treating on this frame as well. Also note that the Savanna frame is brakeless, so there are no mounts or guides.

The Savanna 2 frame is available in 20.2″, 20.6″ and 21″ top tube lengths with Flat Raw, Gloss Black and Metallic White for color options and a weight of 5.3 lbs. The frame is available for $370.00 through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Flybikes worldwide and online, or direct from the Flybikes Website.
