Knolly Bikes grew out of a dream – a dream from one rider who wanted something better – something that was currently not offered in the mountain bike market place. This dream was to build a free ride frame that simply worked reliably day in and day out, with out any annoyances like interrupted seat tubes, tires hitting the seat or seat tube, shocks tucked away in difficult to access locations, fasteners that constantly loosen, pre-mature bearing wear, etc... This frame design had to work well, be reliable, be serviceable, and most importantly be free from frivolous marketing features while still offering both useful tuning options and superlative performance in even the most complicated and severe riding situations. This was and still is Noel Buckley's dream and from those humble beginnings back in early 2002, the Knolly Bikes lineup has become the embodiment of everything that Noel stands for: ultra-high end manufacturing, only the highest quality fasteners and bearings, and designs that make the best use of existing technology while innovating and breaking the status quo when the current technology is simply not sufficient.
The Delirium T shares the V-tach's lineage but puts it to use in a lighter weight and very flexible package. Versatility is the hallmark of the Delirium T All Mountain Frame: a frame perfectly suited to epic big mountain climbs leading to unknown descents while still at home on technical trails and forays into lift serviced riding.
The ENDORPHIN™ trail bike is new for 2007 and while wholeheartedly Knolly in quality, design and application, the Endorphin features a substantially lightened frame from our previous offerings.
Based on five years of development, the V-tach frame continues to grow its underground reputation as one of the world's premier free ride frames –a frame designed by a rider owned company that inherently understands what riders need and what is superfluous. Our uncompromising dedication to a truly advanced and reliable frame platform and an unwavering commitment to employing the highest quality hardware available and North American manufacturing are the foundation upon which the V-tach is designed and built.
