Is there going to be a Flaanimal 6 steel any time soon? We’re getting that question a bunch these days with the advent of 6 Ti. The answer, as it turns out, is “not any time soon”. We don’t have any designs for 6 steel currently, nor are there any prototypes floating around. It isn’t as simple as making a 6 steel just like the 6 Ti because the methods of construction used in 6 Ti aren’t viable for steel without jacking the price way up, which we are not going to do. So, 5.0 steel is still king, and for good reason. The specs remain competitive at the front of the class, and the design and features are still being proven day in and day out by riders around the world. Bonus: 5.0 can run UDH natively, or can be upgraded to UDH easily for existing owners, so it’s compatible with all of the latest from the major drivetrain manufacturers.

Always be testing: We’ve just mounted some @paulcomponent Klampers on our LockJaw2 dropouts, and they clear these calipers just fine. This means that Flaanimal 6 Ti and TD4.2 will run them no problemo. This is also good news for other large profile flat mount calipers as well, as Klampers are among the largest we’ve mounted over the years.
 
Bonus reminder: LockJaw2 production dropouts are 160mm native, so no mounting plate is needed.

OUR VALUES

RIDE

Our bikes as hard as we can. Never lose touch with the fact that true inspiration for everything we do comes from time spent in the saddle.

EXPLORE

If we stay where things are familiar we will quickly grow stale. To stay challenged we always seek out the new. New paces to ride, new goals to attempt, and new people to collaborate with.

CREATE

When we return home from our adventures we take our experiences and turn them into things that we can share. Stories, photos, videos, and inspired products are the fruit of our labor.
