New McNeil stuff



Just got these crank samples in from the factory. It’s always kills me to see something that was in my head for so long as an actual part and it turns out exactly they way I wanted it too. There is no better feeling. Pulled ‘em out of the box and I was surprised by the how light they are. They’re just first samples and if they don’t hold up to the guys testing them they might have a few changes so who knows what the production weight will be....They have been getting a solid review from Wade so far, but as I said time will tell. Anyway, they’re made with the same Japanese chromoly material that we make our frames from and then they’re heat treated to max out the strength. We’ll keep you guys up to date on the testing.

"we just got a bunch of samples in of our second grip, The Clutch. These grips are a bit thicker than our Houndstooth grips and come in a bunch of new colors. They were designed with mushroom style comfort that wears in, (instead of wearing out) and have offset horizontal arching points that gives your hands a little more to hold on after they get sweaty. A few of the Team guys are rocking them right now"

The cranks look super ugly. The sprocket is cool looking.
