Courage Adams Signature

Overview

The Courage Adams signature Savanna frame sticks with its original geometry but utilizes new tubing specs that help reduce the overall weight of the frame without sacrificing any of the strength. The frame features internal and external gussets, multi-butted and tapered tubing, an Investment Cast seat post clamp with the Horizontal Cut System, and Investment Cast Dropouts with integrated chain tensioners. It is brakeless, so there are no mounts or guides.

My parents bought me my first BMX bike in 2011 and it changed my life. This bike has taken me all over the world and introduced me to cool places and cooler people. My goal is to help get 1,000,000 people into BMX so they can experience the joy and freedom that comes from a progression based sport.
