This frame is designed to turn quick due to the steep 72 degree head angle. The relatively short wheelbase (35"-36") makes pivoting moves easier. The bottom bracket shell and head tube feature precision machined (not pressed on) collars for extra strenath. The oversize downtube meets the headtube high to allow room for both brake clearance and a heavy duty chromoly box gusset. The rear dropouts have a unique coaster brake mounting bracket placed on top of the chainstay and a strengthening ridge along the bottom to resist flexing. Twin top tubes form a platform from behind the seat forward to the head tube and all tubing is 4130 chromoly. The fork is also 100% chromoly and is predrilled for a front brake. The MASTER is available in chrome or white with bold color graphics. The ultimate in componentry. "A true top of the line freestyler" as 'Freestylin' magazine put it. The classic MASTER frameset is loaded with trick freestyle parts. Skyway Tuff I wheels, Redline Forklifter stem with detangler bolt, National Freestyle tires, Oakley B2 grips, Hatta alloy headset, Sugino CT175 threepiece chromoly cranks, MKS graphite pedals, DiaCompe MX 1000 front and rear calipers with Tech 3 levers and more. This is it.
