It’s Showtime for Josh Boothby

Riding the production model of SE Bikes' newest addition to the fixed gear family, Josh Boothby took first place at this year's Ride + Style on the 26" specific Showtime. "It's aggressive angles and super short back end gave me that edge I needed to win" said Boothby. Team rider DJ Mull designed the Showtime so that it's steep angles aid in nose manuals, while it's short back end allows for easier spins. Available now at SE dealers, this frame is fully heat treated featuring a mid BB, integreted headset, and 14mm drop outs.
