China :D

But really, I think their headquarters is in China also.... maybe Taiwan

But... they are pretty strong. I've only heard of 1 breaking and that was at the rear dropouts. This guy breaks everything including the MX bars he used on his bike (yes, dirtbike bars broken when used on a mountain bike).

They are handmade and everything

The reason you have probably never heard of them is that they don't have any US distributors even though at one point Cambria Bike and Pricepoint both had them

Haha, I'm gonna say haha after everything I say. haha
This is so amusing. haha

Yeah, I think Bombshell and Da Bomb are like the same company because the Sputnik used to be on Bombshells webpage... Who knows

im almost positive that they are the same company. it's a real nice frame. pretty good quality despite the fact that it's dirt cheap at 200 bux!
on to bulitryda's bike-it's real nice. after getting the fork set up nice than it was on your bullit, it now feels hella good. pretty good for trails, urban, or some djs

I don't care what you guys say, that actually looks nice.
Although I have heard of a Da Bomb breaking. My friend broke his DH ride (I'm forgetting the name of the model at the moment) clean off at the headtube.

Attending UCSC, College Eight. Feel free to come ride with me.

Keep it rockin' Hub TV!!
