Mankind
Code, Mike S signature frame
Part time Aussie Mike Steingraeber
has a new signature frame with mankind bikes. The Code will
be availble here in a couple of months.
Here is what Mike has to say about it: I
have been friends with Mankind owner Christoph Huber for well over 20
years, and while a good personal relationship helps, that wasnīt the
reason I wanted to ride for Mankind. What I find so appealing about
Mankind is the quality of their products, their attention to detail and
their nice graphic designs. Christoph let me design my signature frame,
the Code the way I wanted it to be, without any limitations. I knew
what I wanted from the start, so it was just a matter of bringing my ideas
to paper, getting a prototype made, which unfotunately took a long time,
and now testing the prototype and showing it around.
There are several key
elements I wanted in my frame:
First of all: strength. My frames have
to take a lot of abuse, and I want them to take it. Thatīs why I wanted a
without unnecessary bent tubes, and nothing crossed either.
Secondly, I didnīt
want to build a tank, so I opted for butted tubes and tapered chain- and
seatstays. To be able to use thin tubes, I wanted the frame to be fully
heat treated. That means it gets welded first, then the whole thing gets
heat treated, resulting in a very strong structure, including the welds!
Third, the frame had
to be functional! Thatīs why the down tube is slightly elevated, with
enough attatchment to the bottom bracket shell, so thatīs not going to
fall off. The dropouts are on the outside of the seat- and chainstays, so
bike varials will be easier without getting caught up with your feet. The
head angle is 74°, so your bars wonīt touch the ground as easyly when
doing hitchhikers and backpackers.
And last but not least
I wanted a lot of atention to detail. I opted for machined bottom bracket
shell and head tube with integrated logo, a logo etching in the dropouts,
the nice Mankind bridge between the seatstays and the curved tube/bridge
between the chainstays for added strength. The seattube is outside
machined to save a bit of weight and has an integrated seatclamp. The
stickers are placed where they donīt get scratched instantly when you
ride your bike. I chose not to have brake mounts on the frame, because I
donīt use brakes and it looks like most other riders donīt use rear
brakes, and the frame just looks much cleaner that way.
