The PitchFork is gone forever


Our venerable PitchFork has outsold even our most popular frames. And now it must go the way of lambskin rubbers. Away.

Scalpel like precision tempered with just enough compliance has made the Vassago PitchFork, not only a JabberWocky favorite, but a sought after, aftermarket upgrade to cheap and shitty rigid 29er forks.

Due to it's success, we were informed that a prominent BMX company has used the name "Pitchfork" for almost a decade. Who the hell knew! We don't ride baby-ass BMX wheels. We like 'em big and goofy, with knobbies.

Anyway, out of respect for a company who has themselves told the "generic big-box" companies to go to hell, and established their place in their industry, we humbly succeed. So the Vassago PitchFork is no more...

While remaining Vassago Pitchforks are still available, the fork will be renamed and redesigned for '08. We'll post updates as they become available.

14 year old on a Vassago dominates "real men"...

Vassago Cycles supported rider, Zach Stilwell raced the JabberWocky at the Lake Rebecca Cyclocross race on October 7th, in Rockford, Minnesota.


Zach, age 14, took 1st place in C4 and 18th place overall out of 71 riders.


Congratulations Zach.





Our frames are raced and ridden on some of the toughest terrain out there and repeatedly advance riders to the top! The JabberWocky and BanderSnatch, while not designed for CX racing, are definitely showing a strong presence among this breed of racer! We are enthralled at your photos and stories! Keep 'em comin'!

Dirt Demo and Interbike ' 07


With Interbike and the Outdoor Demo behind us, its back to business at hand. In addition to demo bikes, we also brought the '08 BanderSnatch to show to the world. This frame will be available in early November. Look for details soon.

We would like to thank all of you that came out to the demo and took a turn putting the demo bikes through their paces. We never get tired of the post-test ride shit-eating grin!

Thanks also to RST for working with us to show their new and PHENOMENAL 29er fork the M-29.
