the first, the last: solid BMX makes a FGFS frame

Photobucket

you have to understand that i'm a pretty big fan of Sacramento's own solid BMX. they have a history of being one of those companies that you respect in terms of what they are doing locally. hell, they make Cult, FBM, and Fiend frames. they're also supply headtubes, bottom bracket shells, tubing, and bars for yowelli, squarebuilt (the overseer of the grime), zorg, nemesis project, and my fam at destroy. this one belongs to alex rodriguez of sacto who sent me all the details. check out the rest of the frame after the jump!

 100% original geometry 100% USA made in my hometown before my eyes by the homies in Sacramento, CA. Custom drawn Supertherm heat treated tubing and all stainless rod welded. Just enough clearance for double pegs and crooks. No unecessary gaps, bends or pieces. This is the first and last Solid BMX branded frame for FGFS. Solid is working with another company building prototypes to be ridden but only time (or Interbike) will tell you who."

this setup is damn close to mine in terms of components and it looks like it's being ridden. this is one that i have no idea who the company this proto is for, but i'm really really interested in who it is....

Looks super solid, I like the chainstay bridge looks super burly.

haha "they make FBM frames" only a fixed gear bike rider could say something stupid like this.
