New MASH RACKS & Bike Check
Sup ya’ll, I’m pretty sure that most of you guys already saw the new MASH Steel frame that was released about a month ago.
The first time I saw these three posts I was like “Aight cool”. Plus, I’ve just finished up building my first road bike and I was planning to show it to the world buuuuut…I ended up buying the Bullitt Green frame.
I’ve always wanted a green frame anyway. So yeah, I’m pretty hyped on them.
I just love track bikes. I can’t help it man.
Anyway, let’s get into the details.
I decided to build this bike with parts that I never used before. And, this is the result.
My height is 179cm and I went with the size L.
I wanted to have a slick looking bars so I choose to put the *STRONG-V*, aka the Keirin Pro favorites.
For the brake levers, I chose the *VELO ORANGE* cru brake lever. I was also thinking of putting Paul levers, but again I wanted a slick look to my cockpit.
Okay, handlebars. I chose an interesting one for this bike.
DELUXE CYCLES Ti Integrated Stem/Handlebar
Arn’t they just beautiful?
This is actually my first time using a canti brake. Of course, I had to put in Paul components.
For the front I chose the neo retro canti brake
And for the rear brakes I chose the touring canti brake
Are you guys bummed that the frame set doesn’t come with headsets? I’m not, because I can install whatever the hell I want.
I choose you! WHITE INDUSTRIES!!
Man I love these headsets.
Pacenti Fortza, and Philwood large hubs.
Here’s a closer look to the hub. Do you see it? It’s got some sick ass details on the outer flange. Check out these Koi fish tho.
Loving the Phil logo.
This MASH Steel has a rare geometry for a track bike. You can fit pretty fat tires on this thing but I like shredding on concrete so I chose 28C tires. I honestly should’ve went for 23C but I’m gonna have to change tires anyways so it’s all good.
ALRIGHT!
Now, for some updates. The new colors for the MASH Front Racks are here!
First up.
MASH Front Rack Neon Orange
I mean just look at it. Look how shiny it is.
I personally wanna put this on an all black bike.
New color number two!
Matte white bike parts? I didn’t think it would look this cool.
Might become a new thing? Who knows.
Alright. Last one.
MASH Front Rack Black and White Crack
MASH seriously did a great job on this one. I’m loving the texture of the paint!
These MASH racks are great for their durability. And the combination with Wald baskets are the bomb.
All colors are now available at the online store for both Domestic and the international.
Gettem while you can folks.
Take care ya’ll
Bye.
