S - 7.79lb / M - 7.87lb / L - 8.04lb / X - 8.18lb. That is with SuperDeluxe shock, headset cups, and all frame hardware. Worth noting that weight will vary from one frame to the next, although these are actual weights that were just taken in the warehouse.

Thanks! Love to hear you've owned a few of our rides - hope they've been good to you. New Insurgent - couldn't say. We all take a blood oath to secrecy the day we sign on. Punishable by death (just kidding). We're always working on some exciting stuff, but what & when - only time will tell. Colors - we like to mix it up so you can always expect something fresh. Black will of course always be somewhere in the lineup. Calling - man, that bike kicked ass. Despite amassing somewhat of a cult following, the sales numbers just...

Going to be a bit. We're a small team and the industry is not doing so hot. Development is slow these days.

Yes, but you might need a new crankset to achieve that 55mm chainline.

I think everyone here agrees that we would absolutely love to see the Undead rise again. I mean, it is in the name after all... That said, for a small company like us, a DH bike is a passion project much more than it would be a smart business decision. Perhaps someday, although it's going to take the market recovering, and us sitting comfortably before that's going to happen.

I suppose we can't be everyone's cup of tea - our goal is to make the best bikes we possibly can & yes, that price is competitive. Thanks!

Yeah, a Trail Pistol frame came in kinda portly, but I will forever be disappointed they were not able to further refine their Revved carbon frames and extend it to rims, handlebars, etc...I have over 4K on my 2019 Smash and it's still being abused on the regular. I firmly believe a well executed thermoplastic frame (like GG) is a superior design to a traditional thermoset frame in terms of manufacturing efficiency and overall durability. Unfortunately, it sounds like more brands will join GG in mtb brand graveyard.

I was wearing my GG shirt the other day.. I can't help if part of their going away was putting all of their eggs into 1 thermoplastic basket.. Also, while the shared front triangle was good in concept, checking a former co-workers bike, I can't help but feel it was a bit flawed in execution.. It made for a very heavy at the time short travel bike..

3 reasons, bike brands got greedy and started creating new bike standards which built in forced obsolescence on components and frames, so a new bike only lasts a few years before it's no longer compatible with new available components, vs one that was good for ten years or more back in the early noughties, or literally for decades in the 90s. Brands chased the money making 10k bikes that no one can afford as times got harder, they chased profit per unit rather than vfm and that detached new bike purchasing from the really loyal die hard fans. Basically they...
