PYGA ONEFORTY650 PASCOE


SOUTH AFRICA’S PYGA Industries are a brand on the up, with a series of frames designed for having fun at their core.

Combining clever geometry with a floating shock suspension design said to offer efficient pedalling and remain active under braking, the Oneforty650 Pascoe is their trail-slaying 140mm (5.5in) travel offering. Designed around the 650b wheel size and a 150-160mm (5.9-6.3in) fork, the Pascoe has a tapered head tube, 12mm rear axle and internal cable routing. The frame is available in three sizes and comes with a RockShox Monarch RT3 shock. You certainly won’t miss this taxi-yellow machine on the scene this year.

PRICE 2600$ (frame and shock)
