Pake Alloy Frame Sets are Here




They took a little longer than we expected, but they are finally here.
Shops can order from our distributor Merry Sales starting in a couple of days if you ain't still stuck at Interbike. To our awesome customers who have been waiting: Please give your shops some time to get these.

We love the simple efficient round oversized tubes. It's just classic.
The hourglass headtube takes a 1-1/8" internal headset (Cane Creek IS type)
Track ends have replaceable steel plates. Includes a light but durable alloy crown carbon fork.

This thing is about speed, plain and simple. Plan on getting one soon.

Pake C'Mute "The Touring Bike"




Many thanks to Muuqi up in Seattle for sending us a great write-up he did about his C'Mute in the Life(Cycles) blog he writes. He built it up as pretty nice touring bike..that C'Mute is one versatile machine!! With its horizontal dropouts, the second rack eyelet sit pretty far back and give you better pannier-heel clearance than almost every cyclocross-styled do-all frame out there. (probably close to 450mm from the BB)
