Flybikes – Flat Raw Savanna Frame

November 21, 2020

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

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.

Here’s some news that some of you might have figured out already. Devon Smillie is no longer riding for Eclat. We’re not sure what happened or when, but Devon’s no longer riding their parts and isn’t listed on the Eclat website anymore. What we do know is Devon has decided to go all in on riding for Flybikes where he already has his signature Fuego line with a frame, bars, seat, grips and tires. Above is a look at his new setup which is 100% Flybikes from top to bottom, including the new Magneto cassette hub. This also includes a sneak peek look at his new frame colorway for 2021 that’ll be out in a few months as well!

We’re always stoked to check out some fresh Sem Kok footage! Here’s a short but sweet one from Flybikes featuring Sem getting some laps in at the Dirt E19 trails! No music, just the sweet sounds of the new Flybikes Magneto hub and Ruben tires! Needless to say, Sem brings the style and we’re really digging the film work on this one. Take a look!

“One of the best things is just being out in the woods flowing through a set of dialed trails. No scooters to cut you off midline, no security to kick you out. Just the sound of your tires and cassette, and plenty of fun. Here’s a new one featuring Sem Kok getting some time in at the Dirt E19 trails with the sound of our new Magneto hubs buzzing along. As always, Sem brings the style making for a great watch! Enjoy!

There has been a lot of hype for the Magneto hubs over the last decade, and I know there’s a ton of riders out there that wanted them, but gave up hope since they seemed like they would never actually happen. Well, they came out earlier this year and have been selling out each time. Flybikes dropped this short but sweet promo featuring Sem Kok putting the hubs to work with that sweet, sweet sound that they make. Hit play and enjoy. You can learn more about the hubs over on the Flybikes website!

“After over 10 years of development, dozens of prototypes, countless manufacturers who couldn’t get it right and thousands of hours of testing, the Magneto hubs finally arrived earlier this year. They’ve been hard to keep in stock, but Flybikes dealers worldwide have them available now! Seeing a rider like Sem Kok putting them to good use makes all the hard work worth it! Enjoy the sounds.

Flybikes – Larry Edgar 2020 Aire 2 Promo

August 7, 2020

Flybikes coming through with a fresh video featuring Larry Edgar putting his signature Aire 2 frame to work at a park out in California! This one is short, but very sweet. As always, Larry delivers with some real dialed riding with plenty of speed, style and boost! Hit play and take it all in.

“When Larry Edgar drops in, you know you’re going to see something wild. Larry’s ability to go insanely high, along with a ton of style, always makes for a good watch! When you go that big all the time, you need a frame that can hold up to the riding! The Larry Edgar signature Aire 2 frame was designed to let him blast without having to worry that his setup can handle it!

To help reduce the weight of the frame, we’ve gone with new tubing specs and a new 6mm. dropouts to help reduce the overall weight without sacrificing any of the strength. We’ve also made a few changes to give more riders options. The 2020 Aire 2 frame comes in a smaller 20.8” size that also utilizes a shorter 13” chainstay length to go along with the original 21” and 21.8” sizes that have a 13.8” chainstay length. Also, Larry requested that we change things up from the M8 style mounts to the EBS style mounts to make it easier to switch between brakes and brakeless riding.
The Aire 2 frame features internal and external gussets, multi-butted and tapered tubing, an Investment Cast seat post clamp with the Horizontal Cut System, removable EBS style brake mounts and Investment Cast Dropouts with integrated chain tensioners!

We’re not sure where Larry got the boost button installed, though.

Available through Flybikes dealers worldwide and online in Deep Blue and Gloss Black!

Flybikes – Ruben II Grips

June 29, 2020

Get a look at the new Ruben II grips from Flybikes…

Over the years we’ve seen A LOT of products come and go from brands all over the world. One line of products that have stood the test of time have been the Ruben Alcantara signature line from Flybikes. The Ruben grips and Ruben Pedals have been apart of their line up for quite some time now and they really haven’t had too many changes made behind some small tweaks or adding a plastic version of the pedals for the riders who don’t prefer metal pedals.

After 15 years of production, Ruben decided he wanted to try out something new with his signature Ruben grips and went to work with Flybikes to create a new version of the grip that kept a similar pattern and feel, but had some key improvements. The Ruben II grips have a similar look, but an even better feel. They’ve removed the taper from the end of the grips, made the ribs on the grip thinner, taken the diameter down a bit to 29mm, and added a unique 45mm diameter flange that tapers with a mushroom pattern to give it a really comfortable feel.

The Ruben 2 grips have a 160mm length with a soft 25-degree rubber durometer and come in colors of Black and Gum with a $10 price tag. For those of you worried about the weight of your grips, these weigh in at 3.95 oz. (112 grams). You can pick these BMX grips up through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Flybikes worldwide and online now, or direct from the Flybikes webstore now!
