This project has been a long time in the works and a hell of a lot of people are going to be stoked that the new S&M Credence Frames and Bars are almost out. Designed, ridden and some even welded by Clint Reynolds himself, the new Credence range from S&M Bikes is built and ready to shred!
The line will feature two Frames, at the moment the CCR (Clint’s personal ride) is the first to be available and features Clint’s chosen trail geometry listed bellow. The Credence MOD Frame is to follow, and if I remember correctly features a steeper headtube and slightly shorter chainstays. Expect more news on that one to follow shortly. Head over to the S&M site for more photos of this beauty of a Frame.

To accompany the Frame are the Credence Bars. As with the Frames, these are all hand welded in California and are made to the Credence team’s exact specs. These bars feature larger radius bends at the top, just like the Fit Mac Bars, which makes them much stronger and less prone to bending. I think there is a taller nine Inch version in the works, but as for now only the 8.7′s are available first.
