Fit Bike Co. – Aitken 3.5 Frame Re-Release

Here’s some news for the Mike Aitken fans out there! Fit Bike Co. have done a re-release of the Aitken 3.5 frame for you to get your hands on. As some of you might recall, the Series 3.5 frame was originally released nearly 12 years ago in 2008 (wow… time flies!) and was undoubtedly one of the more popular frames out. The Aitken S3.5 frame is made from heat-treated, butted and air hardened Supertherm 4130 chromoly tubing with a 75-degree head tube angle, 71-degree seat tube angle, 11.8″ bottom bracket height, 8.25″ standover height and a 13.65″ – 13.90″ chainstay length. The frame features an engraved logo on the head tube, a downtube gusset, tear drop shaped downtube, integrated seat post clamp, Mid bottom bracket, tapered seat stays, micro 14mm dropouts and removable brake mounts.

The Aitken 3.5 frame is made here in the U.S.A, comes in Burgundy and Tan colors with 20.75″, 21″ and 21.25″ top tube lengths. Do note that some of these sizes are sold out or very close, so if you’re trying to get one, get on it now. Available for $409.95 through Fit Bike Co. dealers or direct from the Fit Bike Co. webstore now.

A post shared by fitbikeco. (@fitbikeco) on Nov 20, 2019 at 8:57pm PST

After a little under two years on the Fit Bike Co. Pro team, it looks like Yumi Tsukuda has been let go from the team. We’re not quite sure what lead to the change, but based on the wording of Fit’s post and a comment or two, it probably wasn’t a clean break by any means. Yumi kind of came out of nowhere last year and was quickly added to Fit’s team and pretty much instantly on the Pro team which seemed a little crazy since we don’t see that all too often. Either way, things didn’t work out and the deal is done. It does seem like there’s some speculation we could see Yumi riding for Stranger with his ties to Primo and everything, but there’s nothing out there to confirm that. Oddly enough it seems like if a rider is let go from a team people tend to lean toward Stranger right away. Either way, Yumi’s signature frame and complete bike are on sale now, so that’s a perk if you’re looking for a deal on a new BMX frame.
