THE BATTLESHIP FRAME WAS OUR CHANCE TO REALLY SEE JUST HOW RESPONSIVE WE COULD MAKE A FRAME. TAKING THE ALREADY BATTLE-PROVEN HYDROFORMED TUBING FROM OUR LEGENDARY „SCORPIO FRAME“, WE PAIRED IT UP WITH A TALLER 127MM HEADTUBE AND A SUPER SHORT 12.7″ CHAINSTAY, RESULTING IN A FRAME THAT CAN SURVIVE JUST ABOUT ANYTHING YOU WANT TO PUT IT THROUGH.
TESTED BY DAN KRUK AND JORDAN GODWIN WHILST FILMING FOR OUR DVD „FOUNDATION“, THE BATTLESHIP IS ONE TOUGH BEAST DESIGNED FOR THE STREETS.
