Oscar over at Simple sent me some pics of a new frame he turned out in the last week or so. I was floored, and I think ya'll will be too.

Specs:
4.25 lbs
22.25 tt
70 ht

dropouts are done with investment casting

well here she is

This last one is kinda blurry but is of the disc mounts tucked in the rear triangle

enjoy!

 

[Bicyclist]

Very cool! I really like the dropouts on that thing a lot.

Looks to me to be too short in the front end, and too long in the chainstays. (for my tastes) The drops and brake mount are very cool though.

 

[DirtBag]

Wow an old school 22mm brake mount. Good looking frame.

looks nice other than the pinched chain stay.

It is refreshing to see a seat clamp.

word. i don't like the look of crimped tubes. other than that its cool.

 

[boostindoubles]

Chain stays range from 15.75 to 16.25 on this one. I think this is a bike he built for himself to replace a 1st generation 509 btw.

What driver is that on the atomlab hub. I need a new driver but the alab ones suck.

 

[TheMidge]

this bike is badass. i was there when oscar was building this bike and it looks amazing in person.

what brake is that? looks like a mega-retro 22mm mount Hayes caliper. I still have one around the garage somewhere from 1999.

I like the ht angle but it's crazy light and the tapered stays scare me. The dropouts are pimpin tho, still it's a really nice and unique build.

 

[Tyler.]

looks dope!
the brake mounting is definantly different to most out there

I don't know what driver Oscar runs, but you should email him and ask. I'm sure he'd be happy to tell you.

And I agree Serve'em the frame is wicked light and the stays look minimal. He is not a small man by any means though and this is his personal frame. We'll know if it's strong enough this time next year.

22mm hayes mount = old school. But it fits dope and looks cool. These aren't being turned out constantly and is probably the only frame he's built with the 22mm mounts.

I've got some old DX v-brakes from my bmx days I was thinking about running again. I'd have to find some more red parts for my bike and get Oscar to build a frame with v mounts. Maybe I could put disc tabs on it for backup when I get tired of rim brakes.

 

[allsk8sno]

no doubt after the first true job you would be back running discs!

 

[boostindoubles]

I'll find some 26" mags

 

[Cru Jones]

Sweet. Nice to see some new stuff from him. That's crazy light.
