BREAK BRAKE 17 KARMA
Our friend Yang from BreakBrake17 sent over a beautiful shot of their Karma frame. We have seen a few of these around and to be honest they are beautiful. With so many cheaply built frames hitting the market daily using shit tubing it is a breath of fresh air knowing that breakbrake is taking pride in their product.
“The BB17 Karma track frame geometry was inspired from the modern track racing bike, Features like short wheelbase, responsive but also stable and comfortable. The frame is an ideal bike for urban track riders.
7005-T6 Triple Butted tubes makes the frame lighter and stiff to give you control to transferring all your power to the road. ROUND-AERO down tube sharp and unique tapered seat stays to dissipate road shock for a smooth ride.”
