Sour News #009 - Starting the season now!

Frame production overview!

January 27, 2025

We updated the information about delivery and production slots!

Production Update!

Up until now it has always been a bit of the unknown talking about delivery times and production times. Starting today, all timelines you can see on our wesbite refer to the planned production of the specific frame model/size. Powder coating will add a few more extra days. We feel that gives a better update and insight about what is going on.
Sour has now taken steps to have more tubing in stock for smaller sizes so more people can ride more Sour!

Slowly but surely, we will add even more detailed availability information to every single frame on the website, just give us a second while we update the website.

To show you how good a 2025 prodcution bike can look like: here is a brand new 2025 Sour Purple Haze in size Large from the boss himself!

PS: Cowboy Cookie and Double Choc frames are back online and ready for pre-order till 21 February 2025. Come save your Spot for the third production run!

Our two long distance athletes Ariante Richter and Leanne Bentley will have a talk about their experiences in ultra cycling. Having finished multiple events such as Atlas Mountain Race, Hellenic or Road around Rwanda we are really happy about having the chance to listen to their experiences and being able to listen to their stories.

The Radavist posted a perfect Sheldon Brown style article called Shock Value.

If you want to dive deep into definitions of cycling go give it a read:

Shock Value: The Glossary

The first entry in our Shock Value education series is this extensive glossary. We hope it will serve as a way to demystify the jargon in the stories and reviews you'll read here at The Radavist. But we also think it functions as a standalone educational tool. There are a lot of systems and concepts at work in our suspension. We're not just here to explain how they affect your ride but also how they function. So, we invite you to take a leisurely scroll through. You may find it will deepen your understanding of what makes your suspension tick…

A few weeks ago SRAM showed a patent of a future/new brake mount standard to could lead to different paths.

Chris had a chat with GMBN’s tech editor Owen to talk possibilities and what he thinks it might lead to. Have a look in the crystal ball to see what SRAM might be up to.

That’s it! Thanks for reading all the way to the bottom! Any questions or comments, just reply to this email.
