Here at Parkgate we are currently showing a complete Knolly Podium , size large, in a sweet coat of blue paint courtesy of Chris Dekerf or Dekerf cycles fame (you really need to see the paint job in person to appreciate the level of perfection).
The build includes a Fox RC-4 shock, RockShox Boxxer Team fork, Avid Elixir CR brakes, Hope hubs, Chromag Director stem and OSX bar, Thomson post, RaceFace Atlas FR cranks, a SRAM X-0 derailleur mated to a SRAM X-9 shifter, an MRP G2 chainguide, and Minion 3C tires; all lovingly assembled by our head mechanic Craig Sabourin.
Early reviews of the first Podiums we have sold include statements like "the best pedalling DH bike I have ever ridden" and "I knew it would be a great DH bike but it is unbelievable how well it hangles Cypress." Couple that with Knolly's undisputed attention to detail and industry dominating bearing life and we believe that Podium is a contender against any DH rig on the market this year.
Questions? Comments? Fire me an e-mail, or stop by the shop and throw a leg over this race-bred-sled.
P.S. We are also purveyors of the legendary Intense Racing bikes (951!) and the new Rocky Mountain Flatline Worldcup, so if the Knolly isn't your thing we also offer the best in VPP and Single Pivot DH frames.
