SIGNATURE SPECS
COREY MARTINEZ SIGNATURE ‘BEACON’ BARS Corey’s new signature bars feature the same proven geometry as the Trinity, but with added height. Now at 8.6” rise, you can get that front end higher without adding to many ugly stack washers
COREY MARTINEZ SIGNATURE ‘BEACON’ FRAME This ain’t no re-named Trinity series, with a full overhaul from top to bottom, it only felt right to move in a new direction with Corey’s signature parts, what with the evolution and constant progression of his riding, parts that he puts his name to have to do the same. The Beacon frame moves on with a whole new tube set designed to provide the best strength to weight ratio we have found, a higher stand over height, built in pivotal with engraved “cut lines” to enable the post to be removed should a customer want to run their seat at a different height. Elevated stays that help with grind clearance (especially Luc-E grinds) and tiny dropouts that still work with pegs, and a united hubguard when run slammed. Cosmetic touches such as engraved lines in headtube & bb, name stamped gussets finish the frame off.

NATHAN WILLIAMS SIGNATURE ‘MOTHERSHIP’ FRAME Nathan Williams signature frame. When working on this frame strength and durability were always at the top of our list, with the way Nathan rides constantly trying to lighten up a frame just didn’t make sense. What we have ended up with here is the strongest frame we have produced by thickening up key stress areas, adding custom ovalized downtubes & chain stays for dent resistance, an all new gusset area combined with a longer headtube to provide a stronger junction, and then by trimming down areas that can be done so safely, have come up with a what we feel is a perfect strength - weight ratio. * DENT RESISTANT OVAL DOWNTUBE * NEW RE-DESIGNED GUSSET WITH STAMPED LOGOS * IMPROVED SHAPE & LONGER HEADTUBE FOR BETTER WELD JUNCTION * TAPERED TOP TUBE & SEAT STAYS * DENT RESISTANT OFFSET THICKNESS CHAIN STAYS * TUBESET DESIGNED TO BE THICKER IN KEY STRESS AREAS * NEW CHAIN STAY SHAPE WITH CLEARANCE FOR UP TO 2.3” TYRES * ULTRA COMPACT 5MM DROPOUTS WITH CNC MACHINED CUT OUTS * REMOVABLE BRAKE MOUNTS & GUIDES * HEAT TREATED HEADTUBE, BB & DROPOUTS * TOP TUBE SIZES: 20.5”, 20.8”, 21” & 21.25” * CS LENGTH: 13.75” TO CENTRE (13.6” SLAMMED) * HT ANGLE: 75° * ST ANGLE: 71° * B/B HEIGHT: 11.8” * STANDOVER HEIGHT (CENTRE BB TO CENTRE TT): 8.7” * LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY * FLAT BLACK & HIGH GLOSS RED * WEIGHT: 4.8 LBS / 2.17 KGS (21” FRAME)
NATHAN WILLIAMS SIGNATURE GRIP Nathan had a few requests on his signature grip ‘it has to feel good’ being the most important, so it needed to be soft yet durable. He also changes his mind like the wind, flanges one day, flangeless the next, and length is important (to catch barspins!) We took a simple ribbed design, and tackled problems by getting tech and using a slightly wider rib, with staggered heights and recessed cut outs that provide durability, but combined with the soft density compound make the grip soft and ‘squashy’ to the feel. Smaller grooves that lock into your fingers help prevent the grip from slipping out of your hands, and being able to cut down the grips in 3 different ways to your preferred length means this is a grip to suit almost everyone. * ULTRA SOFT COMPOUND * STAGGERED DIAMETER RIBS AND SLICES TO HELP GRIP FEEL * 155MM LONG * CAN BE TRIMMED TO 140MM (WITH OR WITHOUT FLANGE) OR 130MM * FLANGELESS (LEVER SIDE) & END TRIM MARKS * BLACK, WHITE, DEEP RED & BLUE
NATHAN WILLIAMS SIGNATURE ‘GRANDE’ BARS * RISE: 8.25”
KYE & LEO FORTE SIGNATURE ‘K40, L40 & KL40’ FRAME After over 2 years the 40 frame has had a full makeover. We took the frame back to Kye & Leo’s roots and wanted to produce something that was more at home on the trails than anywhere else. Integrated gussets, full tapered tubeset, round ended stays and a new built in chain tensioner are just a few of the things we switched up on here. The older built in seat clamp was an area they were not happy with, so we worked on a new brazed version that provides not only a better look but a stronger junction, re shaped the bb & headtube, and raised up the standover, no one likes a guitar when hitting a 30ft set. Not one area of this frame was left un touched, just one simple, clean frame, (but with 3 names) * TAPERED TOP TUBE, DOWN TUBE, SEAT TUBE & STAYS * INTEGRATED DOWNTUBE GUSSET * SCREW THROUGH CHAIN TENSIONER BUILT INTO COMPACT DROPOUTS * STRAIGHT GAUGE TAPERED STAYS WITH ROUND TIPPED ENDS * SINGLE BUTTED & STRAIGHT GAUGE TUBESET * ALL NEW BRAZED ON CROMO BUILT IN SEAT CLAMP * NEW STYLE SINGLE BOLT REMOVABLE BRAKE MOUNTS * NEW SEAT STAY PLATE & CURVED CHAIN STAY TUBE * EXTRA TYRE CLEARANCE FOR 2.25” - 2.3“ TYRES * NEW SHAPED 117MM HEADTUBE & NEW SHAPE BB * HEAT TREATED HEADTUBE, BB & DROPOUTS * TOP TUBE SIZES: 20.75”, 21” & 21.3” * HEADTUBE ANGLE: 74.5° * SEATTUBE ANGLE: 71° * BB HEIGHT: 11.8” * CS LENGTH: (CENTRE TO CENTRE) 13.75” * STANDOVER: 8.95” (CENTRE BB TO CENTRE TT) * WEIGHT: 4.9 LBS - 2.2 KGS (21”) * K40 ROYAL BLUE * L40 CREAM * KL40 MATT BLACK (K40 & L40 GRAPHIC KITS SUPPLIED) KYE & LEO FORTE SIGNATURE ‘K40, L40, KL40’ BARS Kye & Leo Forte signature bars start with dimensions based on the old squad bar, but the new slimmed down and raised crossbar have tweaked the shape into something ready to get up in the air.
