Up from the ashes! The once slated aluminum 29″ wheeled frame promised by Airbourne that was nixed later on, has become available afterall. Now under the moniker “Flyte”, the company is offering the frame at $399,99. See it here: http://www.flyte1.com/soar/janette/store/celsius9.asp The frame is also offered as a complete bike. The frame only comes with a free integrated FSA headset. It is optimised for use with an 80mm-120mm travel fork.

To explain, the Airbourne name was used under license from the Huffy corporation, which owns the rights to that name. The license agreement period was up, and Flyte, (Now an independant company from Huffy) decided to move on under a new name. This new offering should be a shot in the arm to the big wheeled movement, as there are so many single speed choices. Many of us have been itching for a good geared alternative that didn’t break the bank. Check it out!
