First Look - Lynskey Silver Series Frames

America’s premier titanium bike maker, Lynskey Performance Designs announces the Silver Series – five new affordable American-made titanium frames - representing the family-owned company’s 25 years of design, innovation and manufacturing expertise.

These frames are about to shake the titanium bike world to its core with Lynskey’s incomparable made-in-America workmanship, riding experience, durability and industry-leading customer service. The two road frames, a touring/commuter, and two hardtail mountain bikes are meticulously handcrafted to Lynskey’s exacting standards using certified aerospace grade seamless 3Al-2.5V titanium in the company’s new state-of-the-art Chattanooga factory.

All of the frames will retail for £999.99

Before the launch of the Silver Series you could get Asian-made titanium frames at these prices, but never before have you been able to get the world’s top titanium bike maker’s all American-made quality at such affordable price points.

The Silver Series offers dealers a couple of unique opportunities – First, satisfying a broader customer base that’s looking for world-class U.S. handmade quality. Second, appealing to existing enthusiasts that may be weary of the “me too” glut of carbon on the showroom floor.

“Our mission for the Silver Series was to distill our 25 years of engineering experience with titanium into a family of bikes that takes our ‘cut no corners’ philosophy and delivers world class performance and quality at an unheard of value,” stated Mark Lynskey, co-founder of Lynskey Performance Designs.

Silver Series framesets and complete bicycles will begin shipping from Lynskey’s Chattanooga factory by mid-April 2013.

Meet the Silver Series

Peloton
If your road riding takes you to far-flung destinations or lots and lots of miles are on your agenda, the Peloton is the “go long, go comfortable” option.

Breakaway
Itching to stomp on it and go? The Breakaway’s more aggressive geometry will surely satisfy your desire for “rip it up” road performance with stiffness and that extra bit of design-specific road compliance that only a Lynskey delivers.

Viale
Perfect for commuting to work, daily riding, and light touring, the Vialé boasts clearance for up to 700x30c tires for gobbling up rougher roads, carrying groceries or tackling that multi-day excursion.

MT650
Enjoy the balanced bliss of 27.5-inch wheels aboard the MT650. The 650b wheels offer the quick acceleration found in a 26-inch platform along with the superior rolling, extra stability, and enhanced traction of a 29er.

MT29
Optimized for speed, endurance AND comfort over a long day’s off-road adventure, the disc-ready MT29 is a hardtail 29er that will get you there and back with smoothness and style for a long time to come.

Based in Chattanooga, Tennessee Lynskey Performance designs, engineers, manufactures and delivers high performance titanium bicycles and accessories. For 25 years the Lynskey family and its talented team have pioneered and refined titanium’s promise as the ultimate cycling material and developed unique technologies that exploit its inherent strength, durability and comfort.

The Silver Series frames will have their UK debut at Fat Birds Bikes next Friday 26th April during a visit to the UK by none other than Mark Lynskey himself.
