Here’s a look at Fiend‘s new Embryo frame that will be out early July. They haven’t released any specific specs or information on the frame yet, but it looks like it has a gusset on the down tube, integrated seat post clamp, removable mounts and an extra wide chain stay for some big tires. Expect more info soon!
Shadow Conspiracy dropped this video from the printing press putting together their new 2012 catalog. They’ve got 15,000 of these about to hit shops all over the world. I’m especially stoked since The Union has a two page feature in the catalog for you to read. Get your hands on one when you see it
Here’s a sneak peek look at Mutiny‘s updated Lucky Strike frame. This version features S-Bend chainstays and the new Azure Blue colorway. Looks real good. This should be out soon along with a bunch of other new Mutiny products.
Subrosa dropped this sneak peek of the second version of Hoang Tran’s signature Villicus grip.
“Here’s a shot of Lahsaan from the other weekend rocking the Villicus V2 grips. We’re testing these out now, and the team is fighting over the samples! They came out amazing, and by far is my favorite Subrosa grip to date. They have a great soft grippy feel the second you put them on your bike! My bike got stolen the other week, and I’m most bummed about the grips being gone. These will be arriving in stores in July. They will be your new favorite grip.“
Mutiny are just finishing up final production sample testing of their updated Wand forks. This version features a new 420 baked heat-treated 4130 chromoly tubing to make for a stronger all around fork. You can also find features like a butted steerer tube with a built in race, tapered legs, Investment cast hollow drop outs and more tire clearance for those monster truck tires. The Wand V2 fork has a 33mm offset and a weight of 34 oz. As you can see they will be available in an assortment of colors as well. Expect these to be out soon. Check out a better photo here.
Subrosa dropped this sneak peek of Simone Barraco’s signature “Noster” frame that is in the works. It’s only in prototype stages at the moment, so details won’t be available for quite a while. I’m sure this will be one of their Interbike premiers this year. Here’s a few words from Subrosa…
“Simone is in the office today hangin out, and working up some ideas for the graphics on his pro model Subrosa frame! Yes, we are currently working on a frame for Simone and he is testing out a sample frame now. We can’t realease any details on the bike now other than that it will be called the “Noster” and it means “our”. Simone wants to do a frame for eveyone, so that’s the direction we’re going with it. Look for more details soon, and if you happen to run into Simone on during his travels you can get a sneak peek at the prototype!”
