Volume Thrasher Completes!

Volume bikes will now offer their FGFS frame, The Thrasher, built up as a complete as of March. I think complete FGFS completes are a great idea and I would really like to see more affordable completes so that more people can get involved with this sport. Although I don't know the pricing, Volume states that they are going to make it affordable. I think this will give the Specialized P-Fixed Complete some stiff competition even though the Specialized's price tag is a steal. Volume also states that they still want it to be high end and I think they really achieved this. It's built up with really solid parts, many made from their sister company, Resist. I also love how they made H+Son EEROs their stock wheelset instead of some cheap weak rim. Also, in my opinion, those new decals make the bike look a lot cleaner. In conclusion, I'm excited for these to drop because it will allow people on a budget to get into this quickly progressing sport.

Colors will come in Black and Gold as well as White and Red
