Thinking about a new BMX frame? Get a look at the brand new 2016 Stefan Lantschner signature Montaña frame from Fly Bikes! Based off the info, it sounds like they’ve bumped up the seat tube height, shortened the chain stays, switched to a MID bottom bracket and Dylan style brake mounts. Get the full details below!

The frame features an offset thickness head tube with internal integrated gussets, tapered top and down tubes with a bigger diameter at the head tube to increase strength even more, a double-butted seat tube, MID bottom bracket, Investment Cast 4130 chromoly seat post clamp with the Horizontal Cut System for improved clamping, Dylan style removable brake mounts and Investment Cast drop outs with a Removable Chain Tensioner.

Product: Fly Bikes – 2016 Devon Smillie Signature Fuego Frame

December 25, 2015

Fly Bikes have released full details on the 2016 Devon Smillie signature Fuego frame! It looks like they have made a number of changes to the frame for this year versus last year to make it stronger, which is never a bad thing.

“For 2016, Devon Smillie wanted to make a few changes to his signature Fuego frame. First off, you will notice that there are now tapered external gussets on the top and down tubes. These are over the existing internal integrated gussets that were previously found on his frame last year, making for double the gussets and a super strong front end! Devon also wanted to raise his seat tube height a quart of an inch and shorten the back end up. All in all, it’s a super strong frame that’s built to take some heavy abuse. Add in a couple fresh coats of paint and an additional top tube length and we have the 2016 Fuego frame!

Tubing: Seamless 4130 Sanko chromoly
Head tube angle: 75.5
Seat tube angle: 71
Standover height: 9.25″
Bottom bracket height: 11.75″
Chain stay length: 13.35″
Top tube lengths: 20.5″ and 21″
Colors: Semi-Translucent Brown, Translucent Black and Flat Grey
Weight: 5.57 lb.

Our full range of 2016 complete bikes, frames and parts are available worldwide through Flybikes dealers now!”
