Ragley and Nuke Proof Components


So... what have we here?

I picked this up to test it out, it's REALLY light... check out the small print! :)

Seat clamps - and the package includes a spare washer, if the time comes when all that opening and closing wears it out. Great quality!

The soon-to-be cult classic - Carnegie's Bar!

Sample colors and details for the grip. Compound is just the right amount of firm, unless you want the supersoft black compound.

Nuke Proof Warhead Stem - available in multiple lengths, but I stock the 50 and 70mm - preferred length for all Ragley frames!

70mm pictured below

I'm not seeing enough yellow, though...

The yellow may look a little weird, because we used two different

Nuke Proof Generator Front - 20 mm through axle with included 9mm QR adaptors!

Nuke Proof Generator Rear.

Note: the color looks a little strange in some shots because we used 2 camphones (cause we're ghetto like that) and the light kept changing (cause the weather is just like that). I just wanted to provide some detailed pictures anyway. The two most accurate shots (at least based on my monitor) are the two right above.

And before I get questions about how the it sounds when it coasts, it purrs like a little kitten after a full meal and a tummy rub. It makes less noise than a standard shimano hub even if it has 6 pawls and a 30 tooth ratchet! So if you're looking for that "tunog mayaman" sound, so sorry, this may not be the hub for you ;)

This officially serves as a retraction - when I spun the hub on the demo blue pig the first few times, it WAS really quiet... but after a few more spins, the sound came alive. I guess it just took awhile for the lubrication to spread out. It's definitely much louder now!

Working on attaching a video sample - please stay tuned for further announcements!



Even Magic likes em!
