Destroy 2012 Prototype Track Frame

Looks like Destroy Bikes is dabbling into the track frame sector. I’ve always been fan of triple triangle frames and this one looks pretty nice… but will look even better by slimming down the girth of that bisect tube.

SE Bikes: It's Showtime
Jan/02/2012 02:34 PM | Archived in: Jan 2012
"The SE fixed team has been testing the 26" Showtime fixed gear frame for a solid four months now. The riders have hammered out all the kinks & put it through some heavy abuse. The Showtime is fully heat treated post weld and has been able to withstand any sort of punishment DJ Mull, Josh Boothby, and Gus Molina have put it through since they first received their prototypes. Josh and DJ's bikes fully built up have weighed in at 23lbs & 24lbs, while for tire clearance in the rear Gus has been running a 2.25 comfortably. With chain stays at only 14.55" slammed, complimented by 14mm drop outs, the frame stays compact while accepting 14mm hubs.
The more aggressive geometry has really shined through, allowing for the bike to feel more responsive and allow the team to push their riding even further as seen with Josh Boothby pulling backflips on command at Woodward West. Check out the SE @ Woodward West clip for proof: (http://vimeo.com/33888373)
Available in black in one size, you can look for the frame to be available in late February 2012."
