1985 Mountain Goat Trials bike

The Trials model was designed for more extreme obstacle riding and featured a taller bottom bracket (13"), shorter chains stays (16.5") and a steeper head tube. This bike is fully fillet brazed including the high rise stem (there is also a 3/4" headset spacer to bring the bars up higher). Many Trials bikes would have only used a single or double chain ring setup but this one has a three rings.

Bullmoose changes

Since we've had some questions on them, these are just a sample pair which is mostly to confirm the dimensions. Changes will include:
-investment cast clamp (not stamped)
-680mm wide instead of 660mm
-much better miters (especially at the bar/strut intersection)
-slightly lighter tubing
-chrome plate

There is another sample in the works so stay tuned for details.

New production bullmoose bar sample

We've been tossing around the idea of having some new bullmoose type bars produced (AKA: Goat Horns). This was our first sample set and there are some things that need changed. These are the same dimension as the titanium versions we have been selling but will be substantially cheaper (110mm reach, 660mm width, 10 degree rise, 10 degree sweep). We have ordered a second sample with some revisions and in chrome plate. Let me know whatcha think.

Mountain Goat Route 29 #33

Latest and greatest Mountain Goat Route 29. This was our first frame built by Ted Wojcik and it came out great. Powder coat is a candy blue or silver base and it really pops in the sun. A nod to the vintage crowd with the new old stock Rock Shox RS-1 decals on the new Reba. Our second Ted Goat will be arriving any day and then be heading off to Russ Pickett to get a fresh coat of "bamboo". Should be pretty cool.
