The 2014 Prody 20th Anniversary frame by Colony is essentially a tribute to the original Brisbane made Prody frame from 1993 designed by Clint Millar (founder of Colony BMX) and Michael Canfield. This limited edition of 100 sees the return of the iconic top tube platform while benefiting from modern geometry and contemporary features (ie. integrated headset, mid BB and integrated seat post clamp — scroll down more tech info and frame specs).

LOVE THE PRODY! <3

These frames look amazing (the perfect balance of old school nostalgia with contemporary innovation) but it was the moment I rode one of the Anniversary Prody prototypes (belonging to RossDLav from www.unscenehistory.com) that I completely fell head over heels for Prody goodness. So smooth, responsive, light and thoughtfully designed. The 19" model felt intuitive to ride and perfect for flatland. Tricks I'd battled with for hours on my old Healing Freestyler felt achievable within minutes on the Prody. Yeah, I really didn't want to give it back!

I feel so honoured to have one of these frames. AND, as a long time fan of the spy classic Get Smart and Barbara Feldon's iconic portrayal of Agent 99, I'm super stoked to have scored frame #99/100! Those familiar with my M.O. will know that when I'm as excited as this about a frame it'll never be a wall mounted trophy piece gathering dust in the name of posterity — I'll build the shizzle out of it then ride the b'jeezus out of it. Life's too short to not ride rad bikes!
