Garrett Reeves new Third Wave!

02.18.10

Garrett Reeves came by the office to build up a new Black Magic Third Wave frame. If you don’t know Garrett, you will definitely know him soon enough. Some interesting things on his bike are the super tall bars and the fact that he runs a 14 inch rear end to prevent looping out. His bike is super tough, while only weighing in at a mere 23lbs. Look for new Sunday frames including the Third Wave, Watermelon Funday and a mystery frame available around the first week of April.

Lee Dennis’ Third Wave!

01.14.10

Lee Dennis is making a brief escape from the Niagara Falls, Canada winter this week by coming down to Austin to hang out at the new office. While he was out working on an Austin web video, we took the time to shoot some bike check photos. He’s currently riding a 20.75″ Third Wave prototype which has the Wave top tube to help increase the front end strength. If you remember Lee’s past web video then expect some good things from this one. Lee is also waiting on the release of FU3 which is set to come out in the next month! I’ve been lucky to see it and you won’t be disappointed!

Wave Toptube Update!

10.16.09

Eric Lichtenberger had a bike check of his Third Wave prototype a few days ago, but we didn’t get to show you close ups of the Wave on the toptube. The photos aren’t the best, but you will notice a bunch of scratches and dings, but no major dents. The idea behind the Wave toptube is the same as the one for the downtube. Each small Wave is stronger and stiffer than a non-waved tube, it’s easier to dent a larger tube then a smaller one. We’ve been doing the Wave downtube since 2007 and it’s been proven countless times. If you dent either one then you significantly decrease the strength of the front end. The Wave toptube will only be offered on next spring’s Third Wave frame. Look for more photos of the Wave downtube including the cable channel on the underside next week! read more!

Gary Young Bike Check!

10.09.09

Here is Gary Young’s built up Third Wave prototype! We just announced he that he got on Sunday yesterday, but he’s been riding this bike since just after Interbike. His quote was “This feels so good! The geometry makes simple stuff like manuals and bunnyhops so much easier” Hopefully we’ll have a web video of Gary in action on the bike. Check below for his parts list!
