seat stay detail with built in clamp and replaceable nut… threadsters. Has anybody called you a threadster?
Mid BB and you can count on the bridges being shrunk down and moved in at least .75″ for all you threadsters… I know it’s close. Prototype…
this is disc only but I;m looking into V brake mounts… it already has gyro tab holes.
I don’t think I would want to be a threadster…
Mini me…
The Contraband
I’m pretty stoked right now. For years people have been asking if they could run 24’s on Black Market frames and for years I’ve been saying yes… but it’s gonna look weird in my opinion because of the massive spaces left where a 26″ wheel should have been. And for years I’ve wanted to design a 24″ specific frame.
Let me introduce you to the 24″ specific Contraband prototype (remember that when you read this and start your threads…). Today was the first time since I raced BMX that I’ve had the chance to ride a 24″ specific frame… I said specific. I’ve ridden my Mob with 24’s for a bit in the beginning so I could give an accurate answer to your questions.
My first impression on the look was pretty good, I will be lowering the top tube about .75″ and the rear end an as of yet undetermined amount.
The ride… um… Holy shit!!! I had so much fun! It pops like mad, flickable and stable. I remember my cruiser and it was never this fun. Now I can see why so many people dig these things! It was stable enough to feel immediately comfortable on the big line and small enough to stand my turndowns straight & down. Enough of my bullshit… here’s the pics.
