I’m claiming the commission on those 2! Gaad call Nathan, you need that to balance your one-bike bling stable a bit

I have a pre-order in for 2 mono’s, 1 for the wife, 1 for me. If my son was a little taller, I’d order 1 for him as well. Which is a curious point - will the 2006 26″ versions have the same color scheme? If so, I could buy one for him in 26″ - he’s only 7.

I just wanted to let you know that following on the success of our CrossSpeed (”The Ultimate New York Bike” in New York Magazine) and CityFixed (featured in Bicycling Magazine) we are introducing a new frame for 2006 tentatively called the CrossSpeed II. It’s a pretty great design (no ego here), and it has unique dropouts which will allow multi-speed (replaceable derailleur hanger) or single speed - and it has disc mounts (the mounts and hanger adjust with the axle so you can pull the axle back to achieve correct chain tension or a lengthened wheelbase and not pull your
disc rotor out from between the pads).

The frame is in the final design stages, and as soon as all is ironed out we will offer a KILLER PRE-SEASON DEAL, with frames due in March. They will come in four sizes (Small - 41cm ST ctc, 52 virtual TT; Med- 44/54, Large 47/57, and XL 50/60). The frame is Aluminim, the fork cromoly - available in 29′er or Cyclocross rigid forks (or Marzoochi 29′er suspension). The angles are 73/73 with the Cross Fork, 71.5/71.5 with the 29′er Fork - and we will sell the forks seperately as well.

A base model will run under $500. We’ll post a picture of the sample frame and the drawings as soon as we have it all tested and approved (by mid-Jan).

Again - I’m pretty excited about this one, and I hope we manage to please you guys as well.

Best Regards

Will, NYCBikes

i did check and i thought the flight came with compatible hubs, but the steel monocog didn’t.

The 20006 26″ Monocog comes with Disc Hubs, check the specs on the redline site (pdf). So I bet the same will hit the 29″. In fact, the 26″ also uses ExiWolf tires. WTB just calls it a 2.1 in 26″

please, please tell me they are spec’ing disc compatible hubs on the thing. i don’t know how many times i recommend an intro bike to people wishing the thing was upgradeable to discs. to me, selling an entry level bike (if the frame is disc compatible) without them is a slap in the face to a budding enthusiast.
