Black and gold baby! This Steeze frame colourway looks too good. Foley has set up his signature frame with the ALVX bars in chrome alongside matching polished Guard sprocket in the new 27 tooth option we just dropped. And the new Grime 'Skull Repeat' seat in brown sets off the look perfectly.
Read on to hear from Foley about his newly released signature BSD Steeze frame and why the geometry is perfect for his style of street riding...

A FEW WORDS FROM FOLEY ABOUT HIS SIGNATURE STEEZE FRAME:
"To start off just want to say how thankful I am for having this opportunity to 'ave a signature frame from BSD never mind a signature frame all together! One of the sickest companies out there. Grant, Rach, Dave, Fraz and all the crew, to have this opportunity is unreal.
I’m a tall guy who likes the feel of modern street frame designs but never had that perfect in-between geometry to suit my height if that makes sense?
Shout out to Reed, Denim and Paley for having great feeling frames, having the chance to ride those frames over the last few years gave me ideas for all the elements I like in a frame and has allowed me to find the dimensions that I believe is my steeze. Haha.
Me going in at 21.3" top tube with a 12.8-13.2" rear end may sound wild to a lot of riders but being inspired by the technical street manoeuvres from the likes of Alex D, this is the frame that feels right to me fro my street riding. Short on the back for the technical stuff, long on the front for leg clearance and so I dont look like I'm riding a circus bike! haha. I also had a little bit of fun with changing the seat angle a degree forward so barspins feel more comfortable when nipping my seat. I love the look of the extended headtube so I can run everything flush with no stackers and 75.2° headtube angle is steep enough but not too steep giving the perfect feel for the riding I like to do.
As for the colourway on my signature BSD Steeze frame (words I still can’t believe I’m writing) it comes in two of the steeziest colours out there. We have silver steeze and black with some beautiful gold decals. Being involved in creating the graphics for my frame has also been a dream. Having BSD include my creative ideas that have come from the heart via a pen and paper and to now see them on my frame has been a team effort I'm super grateful to have been a part of.
Finally I'd just like to say that everyone who I have encountered from the start of my riding journey to now, remember that you are all a part of this and you are all my inspiration. Shoutout to Back Street, Mum, Bro, Sis, Grant, Rach, the Glasgow crew, Cheaplife/Cllub, Jack Stafford, Hull, IRE and Lewis Dobson RIP".
