Fly have been well known for producing frames that are easy on the eyes but stacked with cutting edge technology, and these four for 2017 continue that theme. We got together this year's signature Fly frames from Devon Smillie, Sergio Layos, Stefan Lantschner, along with the Geo frame in Courage Adams / Larry Edgar colorways for a closer look. Check out these beauties...
"Not too much has changed, but always progressing, Devon aimed for perfection on his signature frame in 2017, and with all the back wheel magic he does, Devon shortened the rear-end to an even 13”. Devon’s personal 'Fuego' frame color choices are: flat black and flat trans dark blue." - FLYBIKES Fuego

"For 2017, we’ve made minimal revisions to the classic 'Trueno' frame, the most notable being the addition of a down-tube gusset, although not necessarily needed as the frame holds up amazingly, its something that people have been requesting, so Sergio wanted to oblige. Sergio’s personal color choices on the 'Trueno' are flat black, and flat dark grey." - FLYBIKES Trueno
