fork travel?

Somehow

if you wanna hit something really big....sure a big wheelbase, long travel DH bike would be your best choice, but what happens if Big Bucks is all you'd got? there's a simple way to do the trick: run a longer travel fork, basically Big Bucks was designed to hold up to a 5.5" travel fork with 510mm crown to axle length, if you put it on Big Bucks you'll have a true 68 degree head angle, which will help increase wheelbase and make it way much stable.

wanna go big? try this and you'll feel the difference.

How to slam my Big Bucks?

Basically... it's nearly impossible to actually slam your wheel on most of the frames, even if so it'll be painful to remove/replace your rear wheel, so there will always be a gap between slamming and actual setup, so the problem is how can i get to the shortest position?


Here are some examples that will work on Big Bucks frame

with 46mm chainline:
25T sprocket+ 12T driver with half linked chain=14.6"(371mm)
25T sprocket+10T driver with normal chain=14.59"(370mm)

with 50mm chainline:
all of the above are capable, plus
27T spricket+12T driver with normal chain=14.59"(370mm)
30T sprocket+ 13T driver with normal chain=14.58"(369mm)

Nitrous grips

Well... there are a lot of arguments between lock on grips and normal grips, i do think both kind of grips are good, but still they have their own characteristics; so i came up with an idea... why don't just blend them and mix them together?

So here comes BTL Nitrous grips

Lock on grips that feel like normal grips, with our unique POS( Pull Out Secure ) structure so only one lockring is needed per grip, and we hide them by flanges, this protects your hands from sharp lockring bolts. Also our soft and thick compound makes Nitrous Grips absorb vibrations just like normal grips without having twisting or loosing problem.


Length: 145mm including lockring.

Weight: 123g (4.34 oz) per pair, including lockrings, bolts and heavy duty bar end blugs.

Compound hardness: 30A

FAQ section: FTW bar

1: what does FTW stands for?
A: for the win!!

2: what's winning?
A: size. FTW bar is one of the biggest MTB bar ever made, 31.5" wide, 3.25" rise, you can't beat it with a normal bar.

3: why is it so big? i mean, most jumpers dont use wide bars
A: you can simply cut a long bar down to fit your taste, you can cut it down to 25" without having any problem fitting grips and brake levers. But if you want to go big, i do think 31.5" is big enough for most ppl, but you cannot make short bars longer.

4: is there anything unique about this bar?
A: yes, the geometry, this bar has a 5 degree up sweep and 12 degree back sweep, one of the biggest backsweep MTB bars, which makes it feels so much like a BMX bar and this means it's easier to do tricks compare to normal MTB riser bars

5: how about the weight? big bars can't be light
A: our custom designed butted 7075 aluminum with T6 treatment makes it light, weighted at 12.7oz(360g)

6: is there any color available?
A: currently we have black and grey available, both with logos on them
