RYD Masher Pro and Conflict Prototype Release

Masher Pro

Conflict



 Red Your Dead recently released their prototypes of the Masher Pro and Conflict models and they look sick! I love the classier thick/sleek track bike aspects of the new Masher, which is a big change from the old model that was skinnier and simpler so you can trick/fool around on it without worrying too much about any damage.
At first I didn't like the Conflict model but it has grown on me. Although it is very much a track-bmx hybrid the track geometry is still there enough that it seems like it would still feel like a normal fixed gear. One of the coolest features in my opinion is the fact that you can effectively fit pegs on to it without destroying your hubs and possibly getting seriously injured. Also, like on the Havok, the wheels are nice and fat so you can land huge gaps comfortably.
Overall, the new models are awesome and RYD is definitely taking leaps and bounds into the fixed gear scene in LA/SoCal and soon around the country, my hat goes off to you guys - Congrats!
