Main Frame
Arlo’s downhill bike frame is a perfect mix of strength and performance, built using a tough alloy main frame paired with a lightweight carbon swing arm. He chose alloy for the front triangle because it can handle heavy impacts and rough terrain, making it reliable for aggressive riding. The carbon swing arm, on the other hand, helps reduce weight while still providing stiffness and responsiveness at the rear of the bike. By combining these two materials, Arlo creates a frame that feels solid and durable but also fast and agile on the trails. Every part is still carefully crafted by hand in his garage, showing his attention to detail and his drive to build bikes that perform at the highest level.
