The Williams Collection

THE WILLIAMS FRAME

The Williams frame is Nathan Williams’ first signature frame from Kink and features modern street geometry while retaining a classic look. Despite the classic look though, the frame features several subtle details that should not be overlooked. The steeper 75.5-degree headtube is responsive, and the short 12.75” chainstay length makes the frame nimble without compromising on tire clearance; fitting up to 2.5” tires. The double butted toptube and downtube with gussets on both, ensure plenty of strength in the front end while the chainstay and seatstay bridge designs allot for generous tire clearance while adding as much stiffness as possible. Nathan’s frame of course comes standard with integrated seat post clamp, integrated chain tensioners, and removeable brake mounts. Additional details like the custom seatstay bridge badge inlay, and interior dropout knurling round out both the good looks and serious functionality of the Williams frame. - MORE INFO

THE WILLIAMS BARS

As the name suggests, the Williams bars are Nathan Williams’ signature handlebars and feature all his preferred geometry. The 9.25” rise is a traditional height, without being either too tall or too short. The unique 1.5-degree upsweep is just slightly up from most traditional bars, and the 11-degree backsweep is slightly less, creating Nathan’s preferred feel. The 13-butted chromoly tubing construction, and TruTherm post weld heat treatment process ensure these bars have no problems standing up to Nathan’s insane level of riding. - MORE INFO

Contender Bars

Dan Coller’s signature Contender bars are perfect for taller riders, coming in at a comfortable 9.75” rise. The Contender bars are the first set of bars from Kink to offer pre-defined cutting grooves at 0.25” intervals. Coming with a stock 29.5” width, they can easily be cut down to 29”, 28.5”, 28” or 27.5” without breaking out the tape measure. Made from 13-butted chromoly tubing, and our TruTherm post weld heat treatment process, ensures these bars can stand up to all kinds of riding. Being ridden and trusted by Dan Coller daily, can attest to the Contender bars strength. - MORE INFO
