Mutant Bikes' videos
We did this video to show how the mutantbikes SSC system works to tighten the seatpost. Simple, light and functional, mutantbikes will offer the seatpost with adjust holes on the first series frames. Anyway we made a video to show how you can use the old seatpost doing a simple hole.

*SSC = Smile Seat Clamp

    That thing is going to crack. What makes you think that a seat tube is such a worthless piece of material that you can go and cut a huge slot in it? Have fun dealing with all the warranty complaints from kids that can't drill a straight hole.

    Ive seen it done before but its good thats its being done proffesionally as standard on aftermarket frames. It looks really clean and smooth. Good job. Also, what is the name of the song?

    Isn't it time for someone to just remove the seat completely? If you could even call one of them pointy, unpadded things a seat. It'll be cool in time and people won't hate trials bikes. Sigh.

    Seat height adjustability? What's that? Although I suppose the kids (I say kids because no one past the age of 18 would even consider something this poorly thought out) who would consider this frame are the ones who think the lower your seat is the easier BMX gets. Come on, how about trying to improve the weak points of a bike rather than solve a problem that doesn't exist? Nah, you'll probably just keep lowering standover heights and making bigger bars.

    kind of agree with you on this, bmx has become very trendy in terms of bike riding and setups, i for one ride my seat slamed cuz it's easier for me to pull some tricks that if were done with a raised seat, would totaly crush my balls or get stuck on my leg, and i ride an 8' bar and chaniging to an 8.25 because they actually make a more stable ride and spin

    SSC= Super Shitty Clamp
  •  
  • GetBusyBrand 2 years ago
    i can understand the idea but i personally cant see this going very far. that just my opinion.

    Really a useless thing. Not all the people got a Black&Decker or simillar to make a hole, make a hole for put your seatpost is a shitty thing... Or for example, if one day you want to put it upper, you have to do another hole, annoying thing, yeah.... I like so much the Eastern system which consists in a clamp on that tube thightened just with a allen key of 6 mm. With that, you can also have your seat low without a regular clamp. This can't go so far... Time will say it.
  • Vladimir Okara 2 years ago
    i agree with you about the eastern system!
    i ride an eastern frame! because of their clamp system!

    acho inovador, mas deviam fazer mais protótipos e desenvolver o sistema para ficar mais reforçado.
    gosto bastante da ideia. cumps

    já fizemos vários testes e estamos a fazer mais até agora nenhum dos testes falhou, quanto à resistência está ok.

    Seattube Height ?
  •  
  • Dylan Coltman 1 year ago
    waste of time because if you riding at the park street or trails and want to quickly adjust your seat height for a certain trick or for something different but with this you cant its a complete pointless design and a waste of money. sorry
