Box of Covid delivered today...

[RustyGold]

Here is the non-descript box...no markings, practically no hint to what lurks inside...

...first peek inside reveals naught...

...so I dig a little deeper, and find my first clue...

...and then, just like that, full on exposure to The Covid...

... CRUISER!

I hope I survive (the sticker shock)!

Not gonna lie.........uber jealous

It's a beast .

Sweet frame/fork setup!
Gotta go with the S&M Speedball tires on it!
26x2.4”, 110 PSI capable.

Running the gumwalls on my strandie and LOVE them! Narrow contact patch, quiet and, oh yeah 2.4, so plenty ‘chubby’

Looking forward to your build on this!

sorry about that drool running from my keyboard into the web-verse, through the internet galaxy and onto your new frame and fork.

 

[RustyGold]

It's clear coated, so it'll be okay....but, thanks for the heads up .

It'll be a while...I missed the initial release that sold out near instantaneously. Lucked into the second batch, so I have nothing to go on it...time for parts accumulation.

Those emblem cutouts in the dropouts and Fatty forks are awesome
Have you considered Bars yet? This bike would be dangerous for me $$$$ wise.

I have the S&M Husky Moto MX bars and mann are they Schweet in real life, put'em on my Atomic Strand for the time being, would probably look better on the 29" Covid Frame though (really wide).

For those following at home, the top ones are Husky motos

Too wide for me. I'll need at least a 7" rise, preferably 9-10". I have a set of Al's RT Cook bars I'll try. My go to bars are S&M Race XLTs, but if I'm going to go raw I might try Hoders instead.

Used to be able to get customs from S&M, but they haven't updated this page in awhile. Not sure if they're still doing it or not

Yep...I have two sets of SAC bars from the initial group order we did here. I'm making aluminum crossbars for them, but they are already assigned to other builds.

Most of their stock bars are listed as sold out as well, though PlanetBMX still has some in stock.

It's beyond my understanding...but, congrats all around.

 

[BentRims]

SICK! only 11G?! It'll be stolen outside of a week after building it, I'll take 2!

Awesome collectors piece though

Such a neat bike, too bad it's blown apart and sold as parts.
