Chris Hilbrich has been riding the Model-D for a few weeks now. He says if feels really good on trails which is exactly what we intended this frame for. The Model-D is designed for the trails with its longer rear end, higher bottom bracket and mellower headtube. We didn’t attach the trail name so we could disguise a light weight frame. We designed the frame around specific users. This is for trails where a Second Wave would be for street. Simple!
Aaron Ross is a big fan of Chris, enough so that he wanted Sunday to start hooking him up. So here is a little interview, a bike check and a whole bunch of photos.
