Supercross BMX dropped the big news over the weekend.
A 24″ version of the carbon ENVY BLK 2 is in production. (In fact, team riders already have them in their hands!)
It’s been a while since we’ve seen a race company take the leap and bring their 24s into the carbon fold (Was Prophecy BMX the last one? No wait, it was Speedco ).
This is a good looking ride.
Based on their 20″ version, I think we’re going to see some positive reviews when people get their hands on these.
Starting off with one size for now, the Pro XL (which sports a 22″ top tube) seems a smart move, due to the tooling costs of carbon. It will allow Supercross to gauge demand and refine it (if need be) before jumping to other sizes.
It’s a bit spendy at $1395 US for the frame but then again all carbon frames are…and if you’re looking for the ultimate in race performance, sometimes you have to pay the toll to rock n’ roll.
You can check out the specs and the rest of the details over on the Supercross BMX site.
In the mean time, I’m hoping to see one these rigs in action when one of their team riders unleashes it at an upcoming National.
