Factory Friday: New Frame / Old Frame
Спорт
Today on Factory Friday, the bossman unveils the newest model in the fleet - the Booze Cruise! Learn more about this USA-made beverage-mobile and then join Moeller for a stroll down dusty frame lane.
Sadly, former Factory Friday helmsman James Eason has left "The Building" (thanks for a killer 15 years James!) so this series might morph a bit in coming months - leave a comment if you have anything specific you'd love to see Behind the Scenes on. We also think its time for a new theme song - so any ideas on tracks or even an original (how cool would that be) are welcome!
Luckily, Steven Leonard - who has been with us for almost 15 years too - was down to jump into Shipping Manager mode, so your boy got a promotion! That meant we needed some new blood - so lets give Gabe, or Gabriel when his mom's mad at him, a warm Factory Friday welcome!
See you next week!

I would buy a 26" dirt jumper frame too as long as it was built for a suspension fork with about 100mm of travel, 160mm rotor, holes for a gyro, and different sizes for short people like me. You could put the bottle opener in the brake brace that runs between the rotor side seat stay and chain stay. I still ride my 90's Dirtbike once in a while and can't wait to give it to my son some day.
That rusty frame rack is full of goodies!
Still waiting on the 26 inch DJ frame....😊

I'd be stoked on a track frame.. maybe... But if S&M gave into the DJ crowd.... Then they wouldn't be a core company any more. That would be like fucko skateboards making longboards or maybe Lotek making rollerblades.

@@NWDestroy I don't know. DJ bikes and riders are pretty hardcore and it's a business. It's better to make smart business decisions rather than cater to a few people who think everything has to remain the same for them to believe in a brand. Those people don't make for a successful and growing business.
we need more 20in trail frames with disc options

They have hinted toward the Mad Dog frame having disc brakes but im not sure when it will be released
I bet Gabe doesn’t stay so shy after a month of being at the factory😊☺️

Think they made one years ago
The wheelie guys love Hookworms. It looks like those Speedballs barely fit, but could have been the camera angle. I would make sure you can fit 2.5" Hookworms for that frame, and tons of wheelie guys will probably buy them. Cheers!

Thats been my only complaint about my ATF 29. If this fit a hookworm i would scoop up a frame in a heartbeat
that T1 is an SFA. Had one made by the Mad Dog crew. Loved it.
Dylan ambrose was my rep. Shoutout.
Love factory Friday! thanks!
Any plans for a production disc brake Steel Panther?
This was a very fun episode! I’m loving the factory fridays 👊
I remember seeing a WTF sitting in my local for a couple of years. It had a short headtube. Strange frame and fork that came with it. Awesome frames hanging up there though. Having Chris do these videos has me amped to order an S&M frame now!🍻
Ended my years of many 20" set-ups with an S&M next gen dirtbike/pitch fork set-up. Still have it. Been riding 29"MB ever since. Looking foray to seeing what you guys end up doing with this new frame design/ direction
Damn would love to get hands on some of those old frames and add to my collection 😁
I hope Someday s&m could make a very responsive street machine frame
Would love to see these blasted and restored!
I can’t wait to get one of these booze crooze 29 er 135 rear end also makes the rear wheel a lot stronger. The hub flanges are spread further apart and make a much stronger wheel. The tire clearance will be awesome as well. Can’t wait.
Thank you.
National treasure frames thanks Cris
Gabe needs to study his bmx History..butchering Nastazio’s name like that 😂

to be fair, that kid probably wasnt alive when nasty was in his prime days of riding and well known, lol
Let's see a BS-20 Neon from the GO magazine days
Me and micky both rode the wtf for the slat lake shake dvd. Im pretty sure both of our parts are filmed on the prototype wtfs.
Missing a trick there Moeller! Tiki style bottle opener in head tube, & beer bottle cage mounts on seat post!
If priced right id deff get a frame & fork 😍😍👍👍👍
Shoot, just had a BOSS built and I would have absolutely bought that new frame!!! What a gem and after riding hyd brakes...
This is a dream I’d love to work or build bikes I have a blueprint kinda with most dimensions and all I’m trying get built in try my self as not pro but also have enough skill in my self to weld my own frames i wish I could work with someone and us create a brand of custom bikes. Love seeing this brings out my kid side again when I was 16 riding at Woodward on my old s&m w.t.f and l.t.f miss them.
I remember I always wanted one of the wtf frame fork combos .. and always loved the engraved head tube on the Cam Wood v2 ... engraved shield head tubes should make a comeback 🛡
I'd buy one of those wtfs right now
What about a gusset behind the headtube? For the bottle opener to be within the gusset. Just an idea. That way you can ride, see the road ahead, and crack a cold one.

Will you be doing a 26 booze cruise?
Not sure if this would be a controversial comment but are s&m looking to maybe in the near future going to add the built in chain tensioners to the s&m credence ccr Reynolds frame?
Can the 120 rotor fit the frame would I be enough stoping power ?
Edwin longest running sig frame in any company! Yooo! Fit your S&M.
Still have the cw v1 needing to replace the dropouts

Me too i really want it
Gave dont even know how wicked of a job he has
How much to obtain that Edwin frame with the oval tubing?? 🧐
6:50 What about the S&M PBR frame ?
I wonder what Chris thinks when he redesign the ATF 29er to make it better but you have to think I’ve already made the best 29er in the Covid cruiser
Would it be possible to set this up as a 10 speed.
is this going to be for sale?
When is the release date for the new ATF 29?
Jase Knack also rode a WTF.
Would be in for a WTF reissue maybe with more modern street geometry
S&m made black market?!!!🤯 bring back the killswitch!
Randy Brow V2 re-issue since you already have the grips
LTF best frame ever!!!!!!
Send a black bike frame???? I miss that bike custom made..
PLEASE MAKE A S&M MTB HARD TAIL 27.5 OR 29
fuck this is cool
Could i send in my cracked LTF for some fixing?
People don’t know about black market mtbs! They were the coolest back in the day, can’t beat s&m!
That t1 looks like Garrett’s frame
Amigos mim presentear com um quadro desse agradeço muito de coração mesmo❤❤❤
Can I get a rambler with a disc brake mount 😂! ? I’ve been looking at that wtp chaos but my faith lies with S&M frames ⚡️🙌🏽⚡️

If I known that type of job was hireing I'd applied and own that shit. Gabe was lookn like he was lost. Pulling a boxed frame. Lol he was caught. Should ve asked him you working hard? Or hardly working? Wouldve climbed the ropes and learned more then just my job. Working at S&M isn't wrk that's fun
Please make a disc brake bmx frame
