Master Restock This Friday!

Kareem just announced that THIS FRIDAY (June 9th) Master will be restocking Courttek frames and forks. As revealed in the last episode of the pod, I believe it will only be Large (56cm) frames, but maybe I’m wrong, so I would recommend checking out the drop anyways. For the quickest updates on this, follow Master on IG here!

CSK GUARD SPROCKET NOW AVAILABLE

The very mysterious US made Ruff Bike Co CSK guard sprocket that I teased a couple months ago is now available for purchase! You can buy the sprocket alone as well as guard options on the website. $82 USD for the sprocket alone, extra $12 for the insert (19mm and 22mm options available), and an extra $10 if you want the guard with it. Here’s what Ruff has to say about it:

“We designed some 25 and 28 tooth sprockets that are compatible with Profile steel spline drive inserts and machined to accept select 4 bolt pattern nylon guards.

These sprocket were manufactured in the US from 7075 t6 aluminum alloy.”

MASTER COURTTEK FOR SALE NOW (KIND OF)

The new 2023 Trick Track frame of the year, the Master Courttek, officially went up for sale at 9am today. Bad news though: at the time of writing this post, the Andy Sparks blue colorway is all sold out, and the glow in the dark is sold out in Small and Large (medium still in stock though).

The good news? Since more of my signature colorway was produced as a whole, all sizes are currently still available! If you’re on the fence about snagging one, frames won’t be restocked for at least a couple years. Just something to think about.

SNAG ONE HERE

Side note, 700c forks were restocked in chrome and black as well! Upgrade your Trick Track build or finish off your Courttek the right way, grab a fork here.

MASTER COURTTEK ON SALE TOMORROW @ 9AM PST

THE DAY OF RECKONING IS UPON US. The long long awaited Master Courttek frames finally go on sale TOMORROW at 9am PST. Set your alarm cause they will go quick.

You’ can’ll be able to find them on the Master website HERE

Sneak Peak: Ruff CSK Guard Sprocket + Bike Check

Today we have an SMC EXCLUSIVE sneak peak look at the new Ruff CSK sprocket I’ve been riding for the last month. I’ve been enjoying the benefits of not breaking my chain on things while simultaneously loving the way this thing looks on my bike. While this is only a prototype and things are subject to change, the front of the sprocket is actually design-less and the CSK engraving sits subtly on the back of the drivechain. I dig it.

Figured I’d shoot some complete pics of my current build too while I was showing off the sprocket. You’ll notice this time around a higher seat than normal and a bunch of new scratches on my paint. Stay tuned for Ruff sprocket updates!

NEW RESIST CRANKS OUT NOW

Something I didn’t expect to see in 2023… a Resist resurgence?! If you don’t know, Resist was the leading FGFS parts company from 2010-2013 owned by Volume Bike Co. 10 years later, it looks like they’re making a resurgence. Maybe my email from September telling them to bring Resist back actually made them think about it 😳. Either way… this is crazy. I wonder if this is a one off tribute to their dead parts company or there are plans to bring back more, we’ll reach out for further comment. For now though, snag a pair of brand new Resist Cranks here. Here’s what Volume says about em:

“The new Limited Edition Resist Cranks: We added a new heat treatment process, thicker tubing and made them with a stiffer shape.

All for those that need the security of a stress-free crank.

Heat-treated tubular chromoly arms with a forged spindle boss that is flush with the arm to reduce ankle scarring, 48 spline, 19 mm hollow chromoly spindle and flush mount spindle bolts. RHD/LHD compatible. And, they come with a manufacturer’s Lifetime Warranty against cracks & breaks.
