Fat bikes have changed a lot in the last few years, to reflect the evolution of our trails and riding styles. Our fat Mayor has come along for the ride since its introduction in 2013. The new Mayor fat bike Version 4 we just launched is again on the leading edge of design and compatibility within the industry.
What used to be a one season pony, can now be enjoyed year round. Thanks to its trail bike geometry, it’s the perfect fat bike for all occasions, without compromising its already proven winter performance.
For many years, the only mountain bikes were hardtail mountain bikes. And we loved them. What you could call an “aggressive hardtail” was usually a bike with steep angles that were optimized for XC racing, and the best hardtails were oriented to that discipline. There is undeniably a purist element that favours a hardtail over a more forgiving full-suspension bike, but the simplicity and fun has been fully realized in the form of the modern, aggressive hardtail mountain bike, the best of which are finely crafted steeds, often made from the highest-quality steel and titanium tubing.
Wildcat. It’s the name of our street (for real), and we always wanted to name a bike for it, but it never made sense until this beast was born. Like its namesake, the Wildcat is most comfortable scrambling up and down janky terrain deep in the woods, and it’s got big paws that deliver impossible grip.
The new Version 3 has been refined, taking everything we’ve learned from the V2, including feedback from our customers, to make it an unbelievable performer no matter what the trail throws at it.
MiddleChild V2 Cr-Mo
Some of our bikes are great at getting the job done – real authorities. The 29/27.5+ MiddleChild gets it done, but the only thing on the agenda is playtime. Every detail on this premium-quality handmade steel frame screams “skip work and let’s party!”
RS-291 Cr-Mo
The RS-291 is our most aggressive hardtail yet, and if your rides are rarely chill and you’re always looking to push it a little further or faster, then you should think hard about joining this rogue squad, and grab yer helmet.
Fabrication
Each of our frames is designed from the ground up, going from paper sketches to AutoCAD, and then prototyping. If you want to build the best mountain bikes, you can not use an “open mold” as it’s known in the industry, which is basically someone else’s design, with your stickers on it.
Despite the revisions that come from the evolution of a model over time, we’re proud of each frame we make because we’ve taken them all through this rigorous process. As a result, we’re always looking for new and better ways to build the highest quality mountain bikes that we can, because pride is on the line and there’s no feeling like realizing your success out on the trail, in the dirt.
