BLACKOUT.


For the last 6 months or so, Khalen Young and I have been testing new prototype race frames. If you're familiar with our current Race LT frame, this is the next level. The new frame will be called the Blackout, and will be available in next years (2013) OEM line as well as sold aftermarket coming this Spring. The new frame features an air formed top tube, a 10mm lower standover than our Race LT frame, and flat welds for a sleeker high end look. If you're looking for a new frame this summer, be on the lookout for the Blackout.

Photo above is my personal bike, and the graphic kit will be a bit different than what you see here. Frame weighs 3lbs 6oz for the Pro XL (21" model). My bike complete is 18.9lbs. Sizes will be Pro, Pro XL, Pro XL Plus, PRO XXL and LONG which is Nic Long's geometry - 21.75" top tube / 17" rear center. The Blackout is here to party! - DB44
