Absolutely epic. Can't wait to see these out in the wild! Great job Neko!
Holy smokes! This is an amazing treasure trove of info! This video will sell more bikes than any paid advertisement by any of the big brands. 😂
Love you Neko! Can’t wait to see you on the track next! 🤘🏻
Congrats on what you've accomplished so far,Neko!
Well done, Neko and team, this is impeccable
I love it, the lines, 148mm hub spacing, geo 👌🏿and kinematics.
Rig looks quick😊
Straight seat tube + 31.6…that bad boy is just asking for a dropper. Awesome job!
Front triangle with hopefully be used for the trail bike! 🤞
I'm sure I speak for a lot of the frameworks followers. We love geeking out on bikes. You should consider a frameworks podcast. There's definitely a space for long form content regarding bike development/team stuff. Maybe Patreon only? I'd pay! Thanks for all you do for the mtb community 🙏
I'm holding out for the enduro version of this frame. Very, eagerly waiting.
Just run it with a full cassette and whatever fork you want. It's Enduro.
Great project. Love all the work you guys have put into this AND done all the development out in the public and been transparent about everything along the way. Very cool setup and love what this has turned into 👏🏼
That's some hard work behind that frame. Wish you good luck in the future. Cheers.
Incredible! Love your work, team!
Absolutely sick!
Congratulations on an incredible journey. Stoked for y’all!
Congrats. I love hearing how much development and testing went into this.
Love this series. Congrats, on reaching the production level frames!
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching the development of this frame, wishing you all the best! 🤘🏽
Love the way this project has been done. Congrats to all involved for getting to this point!
All killer no filler! Refreshing approach. Congrats Neko on making this happen!
This is awesome! Hoping this is the 1st chapter of many to come. Congratulations and best of luck with the process. Cheers.
Stoked to see you get this far! Good luck with the furst batch and Godspeed to Frank. What a legend.
Great video and by far the best communication in the industry towards potential customers
I love all the details you've gone into on this video Neko, you've put so much R&D into this you deserve it to be a success! I'm super excited for you, and keen to hear when you start to take pre-orders for the trail bike!
Good luck with the business. I love the choices you've made with maintenance and spares. That is so welcome making your bikes so practical.
Really cool, I love the external cabel routing
Congrats on hitting production. Looks killer!
Great work Neko & Logan. Such great value!
just love your work. it's impresive 🚀
next step enduro frame.
This is so sick!
looks fantastic!
such nice geometry! very well done!
Love it dude. Everything about it.
Ya built it for yourself, like a good musician makes music for themselves
This is awesome man
That looks amazing great job nico
Thanks for the video Neko 👍
Good luck! 🍀
Love your bike and company ethos.
Congratulationes, this is amazing what you’re doing. So honest, open, transparent and the frame is sick. I hope you peak your capacity and have a sucssesfull business.
great Job. I hope your business does well. For the folks squaking about costs, The rate for manufacturing has gone crazy just like everything else. Low count builds are super expensive nowdays and he even said that they are keeping the number low on this build to accommodate the racers that it was designed for (very cool effort there, hope you get 'em all built in time). My M9 frame was 3500 10 years ago and it was a higher production frame. I really want one of these but I don't use my DH bike much, hopefully he/they will produce an enduro rig, i'm game for that one.
Good luck, you have definitely did your homework and it's great to see a FTW frame out there.
Well Done Sir!😎
Nice. Hope it's successful!
Cnc parts are mint 👌
Sweet! I just wished it came in the steel frame you showcased earlier this year!
Whooo!
May you sell out quickly! 🎉
I so want to snag one of these!
Sick!
🤘
This is so awesome to hear!❤ I saw the emails in my inbox! I cannot swing that kinda money right now. plus VAT and import taxes here in Chile, but I hope they sellout quick for you guys! Hopefully one day I will purchase one and and my wife won't kill me for it😂😂😂😂 Best of luck To you and all involved!
PS if you restock the shirts, I can afford that😂😂😊
i really hope this project goes well
With the DH frame looking prime, im super pumped to order the enduro bike if it gets to that point. It ticks every box for me!
This is gonna be like the modern day Intense M1! Want one so bad....but don't ride DH at all. Really want one of those steel frame trail bikes!
sick man
I love this!!!! It’s not for me but I love the idea of a ride owned company that is only focused performance!!!!
How it should be done! 👊
Have been following from the beginning. Congrats on launching the product. I hope the first batch sells out today. I would pre-order today, if you had a small size. Youth categories are growing rapidly. There aren’t many options for small, light riders. Parents will spend the money. My son has 3 bikes, about ~$25k spent, and he’s asking for a Commencal or V10.8 for Christmas. I’d rather buy Frameworks.
Rain rain, go away, I want to ride my bike all day! 🤘
I need an Enduro mtb of this brand. A real bike for real riders. ✨
...🔥🔥
I vote Neko to be in charge of bike industry standards.
What is the stack height?
Any options for paint? I know FTW has vendors he uses...
Can you run a CK headset?
When is your trail frame coming ?
When will the enduro bike reach production?
Can you get an aluminum swing arm?
Do you sign each one?
Do you have a hardtail version??
Nice. I would buy it, but im too tall for it
Only minor adjust would be double butted tube insteed of straight jauge
This project is so cool
This looks promising but it needs a splash of color or anodizing! I can appreciate the whole process from manufacturing, hardware and assembly being done in the USA!
You ever go into Lowes or Home Depot and see the spray cans? Those add paint to anything you want
Would be awesome to snag one of these. Considering that the price of the frame is similar to a v10 cc frame, its a tough asking price though. It's nice to see an American made front triangle though. Is the rear also local manufacturing?

Frame size is not for shorter riders 😢
I guess it's one of those times that i hate not living in the States :-(
😢😢
Enduro bike ? So sic as a former navy F 18 mechanic impressive everything u did probably will be copied so smart hope too get one next year
Not sure. There are some investors sayong that a economic crises os forecast to come, impacring the real state market
It’s a cool story and everything, but weren’t your frames having problems there for a while?
He says in the video this frame is the 8th version. I think the 4th or 5th versions had frame cracking issues.
That is pretty much the purpose of a prototype. They fail and you make improvements as you go and learn new things, up to the final version. Neko has always explained the reason for the failure and how they addressed the issue. Imho a pretty solid approach in an industry which to this day is severely lacking in this area and often times just has industrial designers throw something together on their computer and then heads straight to production.
used to ride with Neko but for 4k that's bonkers.
Yeah you're right. He should pretty much give these away at a lower price. Never mind the time it takes to hand make them. Never mind paying Frank and his shop a reasonable salary to make them. Never mind the fact that Neko has spent thousands and thousands of dollars to get to a point of production.
Did anyone catch what the rear travel is??

@@francys1234567 Don't need another DH bike. You want me to buy you one?
bargain
Neko, it's been great so see your journey as you've designed, built, tested and refined this bike, really has, however, $3900 USD for an aluminium frame with no shock is just so far off the mark compared to any other brand it's not funny (highest I could find, with shock DHX2 was $3k). Yes I know you're a small company and it's made in the USA, but still, that is custom pricing for a stock frame - paying for "made in the USA", that's cool and all for those from there, but doesn't matter so much for the rest of us once the quality is good, doesn't matter where it's made (of course once it's not slave labour doing it). Just my $0.02
I think you failed to understand the drastic difference in just about every aspect of this brand vs the brands you are comparing to. You may want to read into economies of scale. You're not just paying for the "made in the USA" badge... You'd be surprised at the corners cut and details overlooked by brands who are creating products that yield the biggest margins they can. It's no secret Neko is doing the exact opposite of this and that means a much higher cost associated (not to mention the very small production run in comparison to a big brand). I can assure you, that if Neko and Logan wanted to make the most money they could, they wouldn't be undertaking a highly specialized and extremely time-consuming project that is directed towards one of the smallest markets in the cycling industry. Passion > profit. It sounds like you'll have no issue finding a frame from any of the big brands with lower price tags as you mentioned. Just my $0.02!
Guess you didn't look very hard since Commencal Supreme frames are $3200 with no shock. They're also making 100 of these. It may be "stock" geometry but these basically are custom bikes.
