Frame Geometry
A: Top Tube Length: 20″ & 20.5″ – Learn what size is right for you here.
These are short top tubes
B: Chain Stay Length: 13.2” – 13.5″ – Learn About Chain Stays Here
This is a longer chain stay, it will give you more balance when doing manuals and pulling up for higher bunny hops.
C: Head Tube Angle: 75° – Learn About Head Tube Angles Here
Steep head tube angles make the bike “snappy” meaning more responsive to fast turns.
A less steep head tube gives you more control.
D: Seat Tube Angle: 71°
E: Bottom Bracket Height: 11.5″
F: Stand over height: 8.75″
This is a medium/tall standover.
A medium stand over provides a good balance between responsiveness and control.
While a tall stand over allows you to pinch more of the seat for bars and t-bogs.
2021 Sunday Blueprint Price
So I actually think that for the quality that you are getting, the Blueprint is actually a little bit overpriced. They say “you get what you pay for” and that is true but it is still a little overpriced.
2021 Sunday Blueprint Quality
This is definitely a lower-quality bike. With hi-tensile steel, frame, forks, and bars, the blueprint will not last as you progress to mid-level riding. With that being said, it does have the geometry to feel like a higher level bike. Just not the quality.
Highlights
Really Affordable
The 2021 Blueprint is affordable for most people during non-pandemic times. It shouldn’t take very long to save up $320.
Lowlights
Low Quality
With the lower prices, comes the lower quality. This can be a big problem for people who want to buy one bike and want it to last them for years!
Buy if you are learning:
- 180
- 360 taps
- Manuals
- pull up Barspin
- no-handers
- footjam
Don’t buy if you are learning:
- Freecoaster tricks

2021 Sunday Blueprint Conclusion
This bike is designed for brand new riders. If you are a brand new rider and you don’t mind paying a little extra for the Sunday ‘name’, it will be a good choice. If you want a bike to last until you are riding at a high-level, go for a mid-level bike instead.
