The Much Anticipated and Requested VP-Free:
"Sooner or later, we knew we had to do this. Build something long and stout, with not only the ability to be hucked down the ugliest lines and off the lippiest of lips, but also the capability to be pedaled to the high places where that kind of fun really starts. Taking advantage of the VPP research employed on the V-10 and the Blur we crafted together this Frankenstein freakshow: the VP-Free. Featuring a massive 8.5 inches of rear wheel travel, a gargantuan 150mm spaced, 12mm thru axle rear wheel with the 5th element coil shock designed to run up to an 8" travel fork yet remaining fully triple chainring capable, the VP-Free is either a stroke of genius or our most schizophrenic product ever. More downhill creed than most full-on DH rigs but (thanks to the superlative action of our VPP linkage) more able to pedal the long haul uphill than many bikes with half that travel. This is the bike for limitless horizons. Parachute not included. "
