Pake C'Mute in and on Bicycle Times!



The cover of the latest issue of Bicycle Times (artist: Evette Gabriel): Check out the bike bringing in winter, its a Pake C'Mute! We just got this issue today and were pretty psyched to see this, we had no idea! What we did know is that a C'Mute frame and fork is up for grabs in their sweepstakes. Just in time to be built up and outfitted for Father Winter...

Help Us Name Our Frames

Your chance for a little fame and fortune. When we only had one fixed gear frame model, things were easy. It was our only baby. Having the only nameless frame around was OK. Now we have two models and things aren't as easy. And next year we might have three models, who knows?

We were thinking about names since we knew we were producing our Alloy Track Frame, but never got around to doing anything. To help out with a name, you must go to our FaceBook fan page. Read the guidelines under "Discussions". Submit your ideas there, too. We know you guys are creative. Let's see just how much. Best 5 entries, get Pake schwag. (Yes you have to be signed into Facebook to participate.) Thanks for helping us out!

"Dion Rides Bikes" Review of the C'Mute Frame



Dion reviews our C'Mute frame on his blog. For the short attention span afflicted his conclusion is below. Full review here.

The Pake C'Mute is a wonderful idea. Part road, part commuter, part cyclocross bike, part mountain bike - you can truly make it into whatever you want. I feel this frame will be a dependable life-long friend. Its ageless design will never let you down, no matter how advance frame design becomes.

I foresee the C'Mute evolving into many forms and wearing many hats throughout its life with me. While parts and old technology are replaced, the platform will live on forever.

New stem inspired by the vintage Nitto MT-16 BMX stem. We have the normal shorty lengths, plus a 100mm if someone has an unusual need for that.
