We just got in some great 1″ Carbon Forks for our Superb Sprint frames. You are able to run a brake with this fork and it uses a threadless steerer so you can use standard threadless stems. Fork is 1lb 4oz with an uncut steer tube bringing the Sprint frame and fork weight to 4lbs 9oz. Now that is LIGHT! Price is $199 for the fork or you can get the sprint frame and carbon fork together for $725.
If you remember from our last batch of Superb Sprint frames we did a special edition frameset in Kawasaki Green with a sparkle clear coat. Antonio from NYC snatched up the frame and has been carefully curating a build kit over the past few months and finally finished it up. Hands down this is one of the most beautiful builds done to date, and it gets me so stoked to see people building these up so cleanly and really enjoying them! Antonio built his up as a single speed and used some amazing NOS Dura Ace parts that really shine!
Here is what Antonio has to say about it along with the parts spec from his Flickr Site. Check out his flickr for more photos and super High Res!

There was a meeting of the Sprints at the shop. Cool to see them all in use and built up in different ways! We still have a decent stock of matte black and silver sprints in stock so give us a call or email if you are interested in one!
Jill is a Road, Cyclocross, and Track racer with Pedal Power Solutions and just built up a Superb Sprint to race this season at the New England Velodrome. All of her bikes are black and she continued the theme with her Sprint going with all black parts on the Matte Black Frameset.

We just finished a great custom build for a local customer on a new Matte Black Superb Sprint. Brian went with an all black theme with some antifreeze Velocity b43 rims that really set this one off! If you live in Boston you’ll probably see this one around town.
