Race Inc describe their Neo Retro frame as “Future technology, retro styling”. The Neo Retro borrows heavily from the 80’s line up of alloy Race Inc Frames when it comes to style, right down to the loop tail rear end and the gussets. That’s where the retro stops though, and it’s no surprise since Toby Henderson is the driving force. And Toby is the undisputed king of oversized technology, so you will notice features like the tapered 1 1/8″ – 1.5″ steerer, and the oversized dropouts to stiffen up the bike to generate greater power output. The Race Inc is the frame Toby’s using to push new technologies, which you can see with the B52 bottom bracket which should lead to a stiffer and faster race bike.

The Race Inc Neo Retro comes in seven sizes; 20″ Expert XL, Pro, Pro XL, Pro XXL, Pro XXXL, 24″ Pro Cruiser, 24″ Pro Cruiser XXL.

Available in Black or Anodised Gold.

The Neo Retro is pre-order at the moment, but due for a March release.
