Knolly Podium: Get prepared to go fast.....REALLY fast!

Coming back from Interbike this year I was greeted with a shiny new Knolly Podium frame. I knew that this frame was coming for a while and had assembled all of the parts for the build, but was elated to see that the day had finally come to build up this amazing downhill machine! Thanks a lot Noel and Kevin from Knolly!

2013 Knolly Podium at Wrench Science

Reminiscing on the "Grave Digger" monster truck I decided to go with a black and green theme. I knew that the bike was going to build up pretty light for a DH rig, but I wasn't expecting 36.8 lbs. with pedals on a large frame! Oh yea, did I mention that it looks great as well! Noel Buckley's attention to detail shines on this frame. From the titanium frame hardware to the unique shock mounting hardware that integrates into the frame to the one piece chain stay that makes a U-shape which dramatically increase rear end stiffness. This frame is packed with well thought out details that make this one of the finest downhill frames I have ever seen.

The Wrench Science Flow Team tears up Northstar over the labor day weekend!

A number of the members of the Wrench Science Flow Team rallied to Northstar at Tahoe for an action packed weekend of racing and representing.

The weather was perfect and the team had great results (see recap below).  There are only two races left in the Northstar Free Radicals Summer DH Race Series, the last of which is the famous Tara Llanes Classic Fundraiser.  A 12+ minute Mega DH Race that many of the Flow Team racers will be competing in.  http://www.northstarattahoe.com/info/calendar/calendarevent.race4tara.item.asp  We encourage you to come on up to race and ride and support a great cause.

hi Calvin,

Have been using my bike every weekend day and love it!  Still commute on the Lemond just because it would feel bad....

The Colnago is so solid, and it amazing how much easier it is to climb, especially standing.  I also really like the electronic shifting.   You did a great job on the fit, no stress anywhere.  Have not taken it beyond 40 miles per ride, but that will be soon!

Many thanks again,

Onno
