When we do something, we like to do it right. So when we began to design our new 26" mountain and hybrid frames, we contacted Joe Murray, a legend in the mountain bike world. Joe's many accomplishments include being a charter member of the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame, a 2 time mountain bike National Champion, and winning 12 straight NORBA races (unmatched since). Joe is also a designer extraordinaire, currently working with Shimano Skunkworks and as head of design for Voodoo. Joe's XC hardtail frame designs are legendary for their tight and balanced handling. With Joe's help, our mountain bike frames ride as well as some of the best frames in the world. All of our Joe Murray designed bikes also incorporate many of Joe's signature design details, such as tapered oval to round chain stays, taller head tubes, efficient top routed cables, and forward slotted seat tubes.
