Skip checking the bending accuracy on our three-dimensional dropped chainstay design. All of the bends are in multiple planes. Complex to machine, but the performance benefits are many: Stiffer, shorter, and more tire clearance.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Skip machining FlowState chainstays. A new design for a special project. Those hands have built frames for more than 30 years. He’s a master framebuilder times ten.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
