Colony BMX updated their Eclipse 24 with a sweet looking colorway for 2018: metal red.
Spec/geo-wise, it’s pretty much the same setup as previous iterations.
With a steeper-than-most head angle, high bottom bracket and short rear stays…this is a great 24 if you’re more street-oriented in your riding (or just prefer a quicker steering bike).
Did I mention I’m digging the metal rad colorway?
So nice.
Subrosa is no stranger to the collab game…last year’s Subrosa/Slayer collaboration cruiser being case in point.
More recently, Subrosa has dived back into the collab scene with two new collab models with Nuclear Blast: the “Blast Beast 26” complete bike and the “Blast Beast DTT” double top tube frame.
However, this is going to be an extremely limited run for both collab options.
Just 30 of the Blast Beast 26″ complete bikes and 30 of the Blast Beast DTT frames will be made available.
And not only that, the Blast Beast 26 complete will also come with:
That’s a pretty sweet package.
But I think I’m more excited about the “Blast Beast 24” double top tube frame.
I’ve always dug the short-lived Subrosa DTT TTWOFOUR frame.
This looks like it may share some of the same attributes of that frame (unfortunately, no confirmation on specs/geo from Subrosa ).
If it is an updated version of that frame…whoa, would this really be a rare gem.
Anybody got an in at Subrosa to confirm the geo?
Update:
Turns out the specs are pretty much spot on to the short-lived Subrosa DTT TTWOFOUR frame! Yowza! Check out the comments for the spec list.

Back in 2014, it was hard to imagine that FBM might build a 29″ cruiser…but they did — it was a custom build for a customer — and it looked great.
Turns out, FBM has been getting a lot of requests for 26 and 29 frame sets as of late. So they have up and decided to offer them by pre-order!
Hot damn!
Dubbed “The 26er” and “The 29er”, these high end frames & fork sets are “designed for blasting curb cuts, cruising the neighborhood, and getting rad.”
Sounds about right to me.
