I'm not sure how many people caught this, but it's pretty cool.

"Sample "Bash Bike" frame. Never went into production, but there's samples. "

I vaguely remember that. if they offer it in a 21.5" toptube, I want it!!! sickkkk!

Out of all the frames Subrosa has made throughout the years,this one is the coolest,yet they chose not to put it into production.

It looks like a modern day Bully.

They're supposed to be doing more of the DTT frames and I'm seriously thinking about buying one this round.

They are definitely one of the few unique brands these days. Willing to make more than a straight diamond frame.

Damn. Bash guard is beyond now. Now they just need to combine these 2

Twin top tube
Bash guard
Party splatter paint
And we have something made in Taiwan I wouldn't mind owning.
Still wont buy it tho.

Hell, why stop there? Wrap the head tube like an RL20II and give it a loop tail and you've got a frame from 3 pieces of tubing

I think I'll stick to the normal DTT, but that Bully-ish frame is pretty attractive. I just don't have a use for the bash guard.

RDB · 2013-01-05 5:51pm

the Bash frame looks way too close to a Bully...

it is cool, but so is Bully...and Id rather have a Bully

OldYeller · 2013-01-05 5:53pm

Someone remind me, what does the yellow splatter look like? Was it a Haro?

I just keep thinking that frame with black forks and kneesaver type bars would look really sweet.

Don't wanna add to much weight. Shiiiiiiiiiiiit if only I could get a bash guard.

I would live one of those samples! We can only hope Vintage Bully will remake the Bashguard frame. They have been looking into it! I like the Subrosa DTT and plan to build one when the black frames come out.
Love DTT and bashguard frames!!!!

monkee363 · 2013-01-05 7:41pm

Twin top tube, bashguard, AND 22" Top Tube I'm INNNNNNNN

jjhoopz · 2013-01-06 1:23pm

I'd seriously buy one and ride it daily, love the look and feel of those bash frames

I've got a green and chrome 20.5" on the way

I think it should be here Monday.

They are on sale for $279.95 and if you want a chrome or half chrome + color it's $50 extra.

The web store is a little messed up, it tries to charge $399.95 + $50. I had to call to get the deal.

Bully is still in business? Why would they sue? It's not like they were the only company to ever offer a frame with a bashguard? That's like when Hutch was going to sue other looptail makers...

That surprised me too, I haven't heard of them until this.

The paint and graphics are pretty close though. It looks like a straight up modernization, but seriously, who cares? Is it patented or trademarked or something?
