Kriss Kyle Bike Check

On the spring drop we've brought out some new frame colours including Kriss Kyle's signature Freedom frame in this crabshack blue. Kriss just built one up with his signature Freedom bars in flat raw, matching them with the new carbon grey Donnastreet tires and he's also trying our new XLT rim on this setup. Read on for a closer look at Kriss' new build...

The new Crabshack Blue Freedom frame is available from BSD dealers worldwide now.

A FEW WORDS FROM KRISS ABOUT HIS SETUP:

" I’m so stoked to bring back the crabshack blue! It was one of my favourite colours we've ever done. The colour itself means a lot to me as it was what my room was painted at Unit 23 skatepark when I lived there and if it wasn’t for that place I wouldn’t be able to do the amazing things I get to do now. I also think it stands out and I’ve never seen anyone else with the same colour. I thought I’d put on the raw bars and forks which match perfectly! I’m also running the new XLT rims which feel noticeably lighter than my last ones and equally as strong. Over all I couldn’t be any happier on how this build turned out! Thanks BSD! "
