Good Gawd‼️. 🧃lemme sip my drink…. It reminds me of the full auto SCAR but we’re talking about bikes here so this is design is thinking outside, (no box required). It’s hot,,,,,, there isn’t a whole lot to say about its visual….. it’s hot. When it comes to the details, StayStrong has a great geo configuration that has worked incredibly well , the hand laid carbon is toray and as long as it’s laid in a criss crossed pattern your good and I’m sure there are other ways to lay the layers for specific areas of a frame but that information is kept secret. It’s a fascinating science and fun to figure out the perfect amount of stiffness and flex in any material and then manipulate it just a little bit for this part of the frame and then a little on this part to get that perfect snap out of the hole. This frame set is wicked cool and the forks are a perfect match. Very nice🤙🏼

Good lord dats a lot of money. But she’s a real beaut. As a guy who’s had about a handful of stay strongs over the years I’m kinda excited for this frame. I was sure they would be popping up everywhere when I heard about them but at that price(I could be wrong without checking) I think that’s more than a marshall or prophecy?? I liked stay strong because those prices were a little better than some of the other name brands and their quality on frames was still good. Resell value is not there. Also quality on gear and bags pads, pants, bags ect just wasn’t there either. That’s why I kinda went other directions
