Shand Bahookie: Scottish Death Project

Shand Bahookie

SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT...

I ride around town on my OTSO Waheela C or SOMA Wolverine to the tune of 40 miles every Sunday.  And all 40 miles I wish I had a comfortable suspension/hardtail!  Those steps, that curb, that drop...so many cool things around town to jump over or play around on...but my mountain bikes are just that "MOUNTAIN BIKES".  (Everything is very  'purpose built'.)  They are amazing to ride for hours in the woods, but put them on a road and...no way!  


So I was thinking the past few weeks about what to do...and I did some digging.  And finally, after looking at nearly EVERYTHING out there, found Shand, again!  


I thought about them in the past, but never pulled the trigger.  I looked at one bike in particular, the BAHOOKIE, and tossed it onto 'Bike Insights' to compare it to my OTSO and SOMA...and...


PERFECT!  Just enough swag to be fun to ride, yet upright enough for a long day in the saddle!  But that's not all!  Aside from my 'TDP' custom carbon wheels and some very cool bits, this bike is going to be wicked different!  


Yellow!  Manitou R7 Pro, the usual, bulletproof TR12 drivetrain, carbon bits everywhere to keep it light and fast!  Some WIDE Mezcal rubber.


Stay tuned....

As always!  Yeah, they might be pricey, but what that's good these days isn't!?  Super sticky and super comfortable!  Especially for LONG rides.  EVERY bike thas these, aside from my hardcore MTB's, they run these or DMR Death grips only.
