2005 | OG Gypo2 Frame feature integrated headset, spanish bb plus angled seattube trimming. The frame weighs only 2.27kg/5lbs, but as you probably know, this means less (2.12kg/4.67lbs) when put together since the integrated headset is much lighter than the normal plus the spanish bb set is lighter than the Euro. The frame features 18.75 inch TT, 74.5 degrees HT angle, 69 degrees ST angle, 13.1 inch CS, 5mm thick heat-treated lasercut CrMo dropouts slotted for 10mm/3/8 inch axles. The Gypo2 frame will only be available without U/brake mounts and cable stoppers. All tubes are 100% Japanese Sanko 4130 CrMo. The frame will be available in the beginning of October, for Euro 270. OG Caramel Bar: delicious name, delicious design! Designed by OG Marton Szilagyi, using Japanese SANKO heat treated fluted tubes incorporating 2.5 upsweep and backsweep, and available in 2 rises: 187mm/ 7.36 inch (870g) and 165mm/ 6.5 inch (830g) width of both bars 622mm/ 24.49 inch available in classic white or black OG Vajda Fork: another OG Marton design, featuring laser cut heat treated SANKO tubes with 6mm thick dropouts in either 10mm or 14mm, available with or without U-brake mounts and incorporating a Wethepeople top bolt that accepts dual brake cables, just 930g without brake mounts.
