If you are living in the USA Our complete bike range is now available. Dans Comp have them now with other stores landing them very soon.
We’ve been working on a new rim for a minute and these week it felt like Christmas with the samples coming in. These are 40mm wide which is 4mm wider then a regular rim to combat wider tyres and make them even more durable for everything you throw at them. Chris Whyte is lacing a set up as you read this so once we’ve put them through the ringer we will get them in motion for real.
So back in 2010 when we Started DVSN we actually made a prototype frame which although held up with no problems never came out. I think we made 4 of them and I know a couple of them are still in use today. So a year or so ago when we decided it was time to step into making frames we already had the frame design basically done, we just updated a few things and then we had a bunch of the crew thrash the samples and we had no issues with them.
So today I am stoked to be typing the news that the frames are now available here in Australia with the rest of the world in the next couple of weeks.
You can get the entire run down on the frames here but a few standout features for me would be…
The built in chain tensioners which have been working great and the bolt isn’t super long so it doesn’t stand out like a sore thumb.
The hour glass head tube is something I am a massive fan of and with the engraving it really pops and defines the frame.
9″ stand over is so damn good!
Super short back end at 13.1″ has been feeling great for me especially for the ledge combo’s being able to whip it around comfortably.
And of course the no brake mounts really gives it a super clean look.
Since we gave 3 of the sample complete bikes a going over whilst filming for the promo video we figured instead of them sitting around the warehouse we should give them away to 3 lucky people. LUX BMX, Strictly BMX and Backbone BMX all have a bike each to give away and it’s super easy to go into the draw. Basically jump onto our Instagram or the shops Instagrams, re-post the flyer of the bike you would like to win with the corresponding hashtags and follow both the shop and us and that’s it! We will pick a winner on October 6th. You can enter as many times as you like for any of the bikes.
I am beyond stoked to release the online catalogue for our complete bike range. The bikes land in Australia next week with the rest of the world right after. Take a look below for all the info you need. If you want to see more images of each bike click here.
