Product Description

The DNA's heritage goes back to the legendary Metalhead and takes it one step further. Built for 4X, street or trails, the DNA can handle it all. DNA is made out of 6061 aluminum and is 100% made in the USA.

Standout features include:
  • An oversized 1.125 headtube (which is compatible with deep press headsets)
  • Beefy upper and lower headtube gussets
  • Proprietary one piece ISCG (International Standard Chain Guide) bottom shell
  • Machined out chainstay and seatstay yokes
  • Modular bolt-on rear dropouts, which can be converted from a fixed vertical dropout (standard) to an optional horizontal dropout with built-in chain tensioner.

    Strengths:    Incredibly strong and stiff. Huck and drop and gap yer ass off with it. Maneuvers with a flick of the wrist. Climbs like a mountain goat, too.

    Weaknesses:    It should come with some body armor. Other than that, none.

    Bottom Line:   
    Probably one of THE best heavy-duty, HAND-MADE aluminum freeride/street/ dirtjump/ DS frames on the market. Looking for a little something extra(that doesn't weigh a ton) that can take whatever you can dish out? Whatever your style, if you can swing the cost, look no further. Certain manufacturers may make more rad-looking stuff, but they'll also want more money. THIS FRAME ROCKS. Thanks, Frank!!
