Availability / Cost: Molly Maguire-In Stock $500 USD + shipping In V-brake model Working Class Hero - Sold Out How much does the frame weigh? The frame weighs 5.125 lbs. Seat post Size? 25.4mm
We think our frames geometry is unique compared to most mountain bikes
with a steep head-tube, short rear chain-stays and short overall wheelbase
allowing the bike to be ridden in tight jumps, tighter transitions, and other
places big wheeled bikes typically did not work as well as 20” bikes. Why
a 110 mm rear end? We wanted to use a peg and 14mm axle and while there are 135mm 14mm hubs available we didn't think there were any available at the quality level we desired. Odyssey and Profile hubs are both completely serviceable and are much less expensive than a comparable MTB hub. Why
is the head-tube so steep?
Again it is to allow the frame to be more responsive and nimble and
allows you to better weight the front end, at 71.75 degrees under full
compression the head-angle will
change to approximately 74 degrees still less than the average park/dirt BMX
bike.
I wish we could at this time but as we
try and start our business we simply can’t accept any offers at this time,
hopefully we will be able to grow and start a grass roots program.
The Spanish bottom bracket was
developed in the BMX world as an alternative to the Euro and American styles,
and is lighter than either option. Spanish Bottom Brackets uses bearings much
larger than a Euro bottom bracket for BMX style cranks and is available to fit
either 19mm or 22mm spindles. By pressing directly into the frame (which has
been carefully faced) it allows for an easy installation and the bearings are
inexpensive to replace. We designed the bike around an 80mm Sherman Fork but have ridden it with Fox and Marzocchi forks in varying lengths from 60-100 millimeters. Is
there a warranty?
