My Current Bikes
2018 is the year when I realise that standard bike are not fit for the purpose. All bikes start as standard bikes then things ripped off and replaced. Speed and strava stats are not important to me. Comfortable and distance is what its about. Of cause the fun of having maintenance free bikes is the mission.
NS Clash - 8 Speed MTB Hardtail 2019
Learn basic MTB skills, ride to school, shred the local pumptracks, hang out with your friends on the coolest bike in the hood. The Clash is built around a strong responsive frame and fitted with proper MTB parts so you can push it hard and expect it to last. The fast rolling tires and aggressive geometry will provoke the rider to attack the trails at full gas. The 26” version is available in two frame sizes and will fit most adults The Clash JR is designed for kids around 120-140cm high and the 2019 version has revised geometry which gives it a more pedal friendly seat post angle. There is also enough space to accommodate 26” wheels, meaning this bike can grow together with your child. The smallest Clash 20” isn’t your average 20” kid's bike. Developed personally by our CEO and tested by his 6 year old son, it has our own ‘pro kids’ geometry. You will immediately see the stance that a kid takes on this bike. It inspires confidence and puts the rider in an aggressive position, ready to tackle any terrain. The light, fast rolling Kenda Small Block 8 tires are mounted on wide rims can be run at really low pressures, making the bike very comfortable and stable on bumpy terrain.
