Sneak Peak - The 2012 ENVY
It has been 3 years since we introduced the ENVY and over the years it has proven itself as one of the leaders in BMX race Frames. It is light, stiff, strong, and is available in a ton of different color and custom anodize options.
Well we here at Supercross are always looking for ways to improve on our products, when we say we want them to be the best, we mean it, we want them to be the best at all costs. So we started asking the team riders what changes they would make to the ENVY, if there was something different that could be done, what would it be. And typically we ended up with blank faces, everyone loved the ENVY as is. So we decided to dig a little deeper. And after the last year of subtle refinement, we are proud to introduce the new Supercross ENVY for 2012.
The new ENVY for 2012 has a few small refinements to help make it the best ENVY built yet. The dropouts are now smaller for less weight.
We also changed the seatstay brace from a round tube to an ovalized tube to allow for a slightly stiffer rearend while still allowing for the compliance of the rear end to allow the second pedal to come around without a dead spot. Making the frame, stiffer and faster.
And keeping in the Stiffer and Faster Theme, we ovalized the Seatmast where it meets the BB shell to allow for faster starts with the stiffer BB shell.
Now with the frame being stiffer and faster, we needed to help improve the braking to help you slow down when need be, so the cable clip retainers were adjusted on the side of the top tube to allow for cleaner routing of the brake line as it meets the brake noodle.
We know it is a small detail, but it is the small details that help make the bike faster and make you the best rider you can be.
And the last change to the ENVY for 2012 is the new Graphics.
The ENVY's come stock with the SILVER Decal set pictured on the Black frame for some colors and the GOLD Decal set pictured above on the others.
We are also offering the new decals in a few Custom colors so that you can customize your decal colors with your frame colors. This way you are assured that you can make your ENVY look like "your" ENVY.
Stock colors for the 2012 ENVY Frame's are Gloss Black, Pearl White, Blurple, Platinum Grey, Teal and Mirror Polish. And as always you can do custom anodize and custom powdercoat colors as well.
And the Aftermarket Decal Kit colors are: The Silver, Gold, Cyan Blue, Red, Dark Green and Signature Neon Green Bubba Harris style and Courtney Tomei Signature Purple.
So with all of the custom paint, anodize and sticker options we can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.
The team has already had a few weeks on the new ENVY's and here is what they have had to say.
