FBM just finished up a new frame that is so fresh it doesn’t even have a name yet. Here’s all the info straight from FBM…

Another new frame from the dudes out back, shop bros are calling it the PowerCoque (pronounced PowerCock) and the SNL (Slow N’ Low), Mike calls it the Brigantine, and I’ve been calling it the Razor, Sling Blade or Keel Haul. Whatever the heck it’s named, it came out super duper radabonzical.
