Model C in Holland!

pauldegrootsmall

Check out Paul de Groot‘s Model C which I believe is the first international one built up!  He said the bike changed a bunch since this photo had been taken.  He went with the Morning 24.1 forks, but opted away from the 24umphs to try the much taller Roseanne Bars from Solid.  The reason why is that he happens to be 6’6″ tall.   He had this to say about the Model C,  “The bike is insane!! It works exactly like you predicted, agile, lightweight, comfortable…..everything! I LOVE IT!!!”   Paul owns a small BMX shop in Holland coincidentally named Paul’s which does a good job promoting the scene there.  Check out his shop’s website at HERE!

Eben Krackau’s Model C!

Check out Eben Krackau‘s new green Model C with green Plus 4 bars and forks.  It’s weird having to explain who guys are, but for those that don’t know Eben was a G Banks local out of San Antonio.  He rode for Homeless Bikes and Standard throughout the early to mid 90s and had parts in Dave Parrick‘s Homeless videos.  He said one of the best things about the Model C, “I think this frame would make it a lot easier for most of us to be able to keep riding into our 40’s.”  The Model C is intended to be a fun bike for all, but if it keeps guys riding as they get older then awesome!

Pablo Castano sent me over some photos of his olive green Model C with Plus 4 Morning 24.1 forks and 24umph bars all built up!  Wow, does this look good!  Not sure if its the photos or what, but I’m really feeling the colors on this one.  The cranks and pedals work so well and the green grips work even better.  Can’t wait to hear about this bike in the trails.

Here is the first Sunday Friends Model C bike check!  This is Tom L‘s from Chicago who built up this silver Model C frame with silver Plus 4 Morning 24.1 forks and Black Magic 24umphs!  That’s right!  Black Magic bars are now available.  Thought we’d throw that surprise in there for you.  Look for Black Magic forks later on.  This is the second one without brakes besides the one Jim Bauer rides.  Looks so good!  If anyone else gets one built up please send photos to me!  There’s another surprise coming later this week!

Plus 4 bars and forks!

Plus 4

We’ve given our 24″ parts selection a specific name, so if you start seeing Plus 4 don’t be confused.  The way these bikes ride, its just a 20″ plus 4″ more.  There’s not too much of a difference in feel.  The term “cruiser” doesn’t describe these parts very well.  Either way the Plus 4 edition of our product line will essentially be our regular products, bumped up to modern 24″ geometry. Available now are the Plus 4 editions of the Morning fork entitled Morning 24.1 and the Forumph bar called the 24umpModel C frames are currently on the water and should be available in the US sometime around mid-April.
