MASTER FRAME SALE

VERY RARE. If you haven’t noticed, Master product never goes on sale. So what is this? Is the financial ruin of the country upon us? Luckily not (for now), but Master is moving headquarters from Seattle to LA and Kareem doesn’t wanna lug all the frames here. So frames, forks, and bars are all 20% off. Take advantage while you can!

RUFF BIKE CO FRAME TEASER

AT LAST! The new Ruff Bike Co. frames have officially been teased and announced to drop this month! I have no public information to share about the frames so far, so keep up with the Ruff IG for the latest updates on the drop. Looks like the frames will come in black, raw, and a pale green. Exciting stuff!

New Resist Parts Available Now

Resist has been dropping some serious goodies on us the last couple weeks! I’ve already posted about the 2 forks they just released, but now there are also new cranks and a new Latte colored Icon saddle available now! Here’s what Resist had to say about the cranks:

Specs:

  • 19mm 48 Spline Heat treated Spindle
  • 165mm Crank arm size
  • 4140 Heat Treated Chromoly
  • Weight: 21.2oz (Arms Only)

“Our Resist cranks have heat-treated tubular chromoly arms that include a forged spindle boss. Made with a 48 spline, 19 mm hollow chromoly spindle and flush mount spindle bolts that is flush with the arm to reduce ankle scarring.”

Includes a manufacturer’s Lifetime Warranty against cracks & breaks. 

Both of these good looking items available here!

RESIST JBALL SIGNATURE “JAB” FORK OUT NOW!

Cats out of the bag! My Resist JAB 700c fork is out now. These utensils have been in the works for months now and I’m really happy with the way they turned out. I love colliding worlds, so my man Gus Molina helped out with the sweet boxing Cleto Reyes inspired decals. Chrome polish of course because chrome is king. Resist brake hole is the cherry on top. At 420 A2C and a long steer tube, these are perfect for either 700c FGFS bikes or to throw on your existing track bike to do some sweet barspins.

These are now available at the Resist webstore and bike shops that distribute Volume and Resist goods for $189. Here are the dirty details on the specs:

  • 420mm A2C
  • Steer Tube Length – 300mm
  • One-piece 1-1/8″ Steer-tube
  • Fits 45c + Tires
  • Full 100% 4130 Heat-Treated
  • Full CNC CRMO 5mm thick dropout
  • Dropout Offset/rake: 20mm
  • Weight: 2 lbs 8 oz

Another piece of news Resist announced to my surprise was a 26″ fork! This one featured a threaded top cap, short A2C at 391mm, and a butted steerer tube. BEEFY. Here are the specs:

  • One-piece 1-1/8″ Steer-tube
  • Full 100% 4130 Heat-Treated
  • Full CNC CRMO 5mm thick dropout
  • Dropout Offset/rake: 20mm
