Simple but with form & function, a Rick Hunter-like track frame
It's been a long time since we have seen a stock frame from HUNTER CYCLES, and it has been long awaited by fans.
Rick was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2021 and was forced to battle the disease, but fortunately the treatment was successful and he is on the mend, and we are so happy to hear that he is now enjoying the dud life with his beloved daughter Flannery. Now that his health has returned to normal, Rick has been able to work with his hands, albeit a little at a time, and continues to create creative products that are uniquely his own.
He has been out of the HUNTER CYCLES custom order business for a long time, but now we are pleased to introduce our first HUNTER CYCLES production frame in a long time. We are now able to introduce HUNTER CYCLES production frames for the first time in a while. We are now able to introduce a HUNTER CYCLES production frame for the first time in a long time.
In the past, we have produced trail bikes, durgeon bikes, and gravel bikes, but this time we decided not to go back to our roots, but rather to offer a track frame.
Tire clearance up to 28c gracefully. Of course, we also asked for a brake outer bracket on the top tube so that front and rear brakes can be installed. The Rick Hunter-like frame with form and function in its simplicity is still there.
This is an interesting bike to build as a track bike for dashing around town, or as an urban commuter bike with freewheels.
