59 build



I just finished my own build with our V3 59 (yeah-yeah, I'm 6'2") Cutter. Fu Manchu forks, Demolition Medial cranks, 35C tires and Volume Krull sprocket makes this thing ride like a dream.
p.s. we need straps!

Christmas in June








All new Fu Manchu forks, Krull spider and 27.2 Pivotal posts are now in stock! We're really happy with the new green on the forks. It's the same Green that will be available with on V3 Cutters. We know it took awhile to get these in stock. Thanks for your patience guys.

No g-news is good g-news unless its gary gnu's


Above is the third generation Cutter frame. Changes: Longer, sleeker dropouts. Pinched CS, so a 28+ tire will fit. New HT logo protruding. New stickers by Dave Banks! We are also getting a limited run of 59's for you tall guys. They are ordered and are expecting to be dropped in 3 months from now. We had some inquires on the 27.2 mm pivotal posts, so we ordered some in black, polished and white. They'll also be in with the new frames.



New Fork name (nobody liked the first name, Bundchen Legs) called Fu Manchu fork. As you can see, the steerer is going to come in 1" as well as the 1 1/8". They are ordered and are expecting to be dropped in 3 months from now. Price: We still don't have a set price but we can tell you that they'll be under $175.
