If you remember a while back I made a post about a new frame company called “Phoenix” (if you don’t remember here are some pictures to jog the memory If you want to see the rest go HERE)

Well the guys over at Phoenix just sent me another Email giving me updates about the company. If you like you can read the report they sent me.

Hi,

At first I would like to apologize that the first frame has not not gone on sale for technical reasons, and especially I apologize to those who have made the preorder. The first frame concept be altered and probably put on manufacture, but a little bit later.

Now I wish to show you a standard frame from the company “Phoenix”.

About some features of a frame:

1. Frame is narrowed to the center that does royal groove more precisely holding rail or a parapet, and reduces a surface of sliding on soul slides, that reduces force of friction and increases speed.

2. Frame can be used in different setups, such as flat, or with antirockers, but many people rolling without internal wheels, in this case the frame reminds freestyle setup (Because the frame has the most height on external axes, and it decreases to the center. Under one bias up to royal groove and under another on royal groove, for the best control of a trick)

3. From inside royal groove is made with expansion from top to bottom, that should to prevent, become frequent in sphere of frames, breakages on the center.

4. Axes are deeply drowned in a frame.

5. The material for frames will be made on order (now it is developed).

6. The maximal sizes of wheels: external 60 mm, internal 58 mm. Axes 8 mm.

Frames will be tested after new year, and maybe will be change a little.

So it seems like people who were waiting on the initial frames may have to wait a bit longer. However, the big news is another frame and I must say I like the concept they sent me. Below are some pictures of the frames.

I would like to personally wish the creators of Phoenix frames the best of luck with their frames, and tell them that I would love to try their product.
