Strato Cycles

Had an awesome time walking around the shop and seeing the process! Shout out to Ashley for letting me wander around and for letting me come up to the shop.

Definitely a goal shop and it's funny how common of tooling all us framebuilders have. Spotted some tooling from and the ubiquitous banners and tubing. headbadges and parts also were oalso present.

This was an awesome birthday trip with biking around Boulder today and capping it with the Reeb tour and beer at .

Frame #14 is ready for powdercoating. This frame is for myself and a replacement for the frame #7 enduro hardtail I made a little over a year ago. This frame is beefier, longer, slacker, and incorporates all the skills and improvements I've made over the last year as a framebuilder.

Some geo numbers - HTA: 61, STA: 78 Reach: 520mm! CS: 435mm, designed around a 170mm Lyric fork.

Shout out to , , and for the tubing, tools, and odds and ends needed to make this frame happen.

First ride reports from are that the bike rides awesomely. I love the look of sliding dropouts and the belt. Lots of small stuff going into this frame to make that belt drive work.

Shout out to for the yoke inspiration and groundwork. And to and for building it up right. The red powdercoat and tan sidewalls are a match made in heaven.

#4130 **kingspeed

Ready for powdercoating! This was a fun build for and features a custom chainstay yoke made out of 3/16" 4130 cromoly plate (inspired by ) , seat stay splitter, laser cut cable ports (thanks ), and a bunch of other goodies.

This 29er frame was designed around 2.6" tires and a belt drive system. Thanks to the yoke, the bike can fit a 2.6" tire and a 42 tooth belt drive cog! Dropouts are VGS sliders from along with most of the tubing, further bent with my Toob bender

I'll post the final pictures once it's powdercoated red and built up by
