Hi, thought you'd like to take a look at Superstar Le Treets Frame on the RIDE website. Superstar have been around for a while now, and in case anyone needs a quick refresher course, here’s the deal: it’s a French company, it’s run by ex-riders who are now engineers, they have a good Euro team, and the stuff they make always has that certain extra flair. New for 2006 include a range of revamped frames, including this, the Le Treets model. This is their street frame (they also have lighter, simpler trails models) – it is made from 100 per cent 4130 cromoly, and has more subtle details than you can shake a stick at: the headtube is for internal headsets, the BB is Spanish sized, there’s a stubby seatstay wishbone to add strength there, the seattube is drilled so you can run your brake cable through it (if you have a cut-down seatpost), the chainstays are uniquely D-shaped to give more room for 2 inch tyres with a slammed and very short back end of just 13.25 inches. Got pop? There’s a small downtube gusset, and the dropouts are small and drilled to shave a couple of ounces. It’s tight, light, and can take a good beating and come back for more. MATERIAL: 4130 CHROMOLY WHEELBASE: 36 TO 36.5 INCHES TOPTUBE: 20.6, INCHES REAR TRIANGLE: 13.25 TO 13.75 INCHES TOPTUBE OD: 1.5 INCH DOWNTUBE OD: 1.6 INCH STAYS OD: 0.9 INCH DROPOUTS: MACHINED 5MM, 14MM SLOTS WEIGHT: 2.74KG OR 6LB EXTRAS: MACHINED HIDDENSET HEADTUBE, U-BRAKE LUGS ON SEATSTAYS, SPANISH BB MADE IN: TAIWAN PRICE: £TBC DISTRIBUTOR: PADDED CELL 0208 586 9943 THEPADDEDCELL.CO.UK Click below to see what all the fuss is about. http://rideukbmx.com/products/superstar-le-treets-frame/
