A few years ago NS Bikes decided to launch a new brand of frames and components that were designed to be strong, functional and affordable. The aim was to offer components that were not as sophisticated as NS Bikes and would allow riders to build nice bikes without having to spend a fortune.
This season Octane One is stepping up one notch and the whole line has been seriously revamped and pumped up with some high end features, colours and designs. The prices however stayed on the same level which is a very good news for everyone looking for some fresh and yet affordable components.
Brand new Octane One Spark frames during 2011 photoshoot
This small revolution began in the frames department. From this year there is a new frame dedicated for street and park appropriately named the Spark.
Octane One Spark – street and park dedicated frame designed for 24″ wheels.
This is great news for all 24” wheels enthusiast as the Spark’s frame geometry is designed for 24″ wheels only. It’s a perfect choice for low travel suspension forks (60-100mm) or rigid forks.

Along with Pawel “Turbo” Turno and Filip Soczynski from Poland they will be representing the brand during top events across the Europe in the upcoming season.
