Old Guys Who Ride just posted a little interview with me on their site. Some of the revelations that can be found are my middle name and the fact that the 24″ can go pretty high on a tight tranny wall. Enjoy!

Wave-C review!
Check out a review of the Sunday Wave-C on www.oldguyswhoride.com! The improvements like shortened rear end and longer toptube option, haven’t gone unnoticed. Not only do you get these changes, but there are more features on the frame like Wave toptube and downtube, removable mounts and hollow dropouts with built in chaintensioners. It’s offered in two color choices: Black Magic and the new Vapor Blue color which is shown in the photo above. Available now for shops through Full Factory and at your local bike shop and mail order.

That’s right! After a longer than expcted wait, the Morning 24.1 forks with brake mounts are NOW in stock and ready to ship. These are the same trusted Morning 24.1 forks with 41 Thermal heat-treating, but now they are available with brake mounts. Have your local shop or mail order call Full Factory today!
Vapor Blue Wave-C are available!
Here’s a sneak shot of the new Vapor Blue Wave C frames that just arrived in the warehouse. This color is amazing! I’m not sure whether to switch from the Black Magic I ride to the Vapor Blue. Either way both 21.25″ and 22″ frames are available this week.

Jon has been riding Sunday 24″ bikes since late 2009, check out this interview we did with him about his Model C experience. He’s got some big plans coming up this year so definitely look for more from him. Check out his web site, www.oldguyswhoride.com and realize that you’ll be able to ride well into your 40’s and 50’s. Maybe even longer? His parts list is below. Thanks Jon, you’re bike looks great!
Black Sunday!
Guess what? Sunday frames come in black! Actually we’ve had black frames for a long time now, but they are often overshadowed by the bright colors we also do. From left to right, Forecaster, Funday (yes even a black Funday), Third Wave, Conductor and Wave-C all come in black and are available right now!
Sunday Spy Shot!
Thought we could show you this spy shot of some of the new 24umph XL bars that we are riding. We’ve added a half inch to the original 24umph bar height. The dimensions will be 7.75″ rise and 28″ wide with 12 degrees backsweep and 4 degrees upsweep. I put them on my Wave-C for a test run the other day, I could bunnyhop easier and pop into nosewheelies much better. Not sure if it made doubles runs easier, but TJ Henderson and I filmed this clip that day. The testing is going well so far. Arrival dates should be later this spring and yes 990 mount 24.1 forks will be here in March. More updates to come!
Wave C frames now available!
Yes, the highly anticipated 24″ Wave C frame is now available! We’ve made some updates to the original Model-C frame that make it even stronger and more agile. The chainstay length was shortened from 15″ to 14.6″ which will allow the front end to come up easier and make it easier for spinning tricks. All of our aftermarket frame features like Wave toptube and downtube, hollow dropouts with built in chain tensioner, removable brake mounts, cable channel, post-weld machining of the bb and headtube and 41 Thermal heat-treating can all be found on this frame. Plus we’ve added more room to the frame by offering it in a larger 22″ size, so you’ll be able to get it in either 21.25″ or 22″. This is one tough frame! Check after the break for the frame specs and features.

Sunday Friends:
Colby Mockler
It’s been awhile since we’ve done a Sunday Friends, but this is Colby Mockler’s brand new Wave-C freshly purchased from Empire BMX. This bike couldn’t look much more tough! Colby might actually be one of the first people to own a Wave-C since it just arrived in shops last week. Can’t wait to see more Wave-C photos!
Wave C Bike Check on ESPN
Here’s a quick shot of my Sunday Wave C in action at the R.A.S.P. Skatepark in Rochester, NY. ESPN just posted more photos of this bike along with some amazing wallpaper in a bike check over the weekend. In the post, there’s a little interview talking about the pros and cons of the Sunday 24″ geometry. Wave C’s should be in stores very soon! Photo: Casey Haley
