Golden Saddle Rides: Haunted Hollows Stinner Off-Roadie

Golden Saddle Rides: Haunted Hollows Stinner Off-Roadie
Photos and words by Kyle Kelley

I guess this bike would be a little more Halloweeny if it was black and orange, but what the HELL, it’s not!

Stinner Frameworks provided the skeleton, and we installed the costume.

Matt, the owner of this bike knew exactly what he wanted. A no nonsense road bike that could take large enough tires to really get dirty. The Velo Orange Grand Cru brakes are what made his decision to go standard caliber, over a cantilever or Mini-Moto style brake. Besides the Chris King bits, the bike is outfitted with a full Ultegra kit. The ENVE bar and seatpost are keeping Matt comfy on long dirty rides. Be it road or dirt the bike is always outfitted with some skin walls, duh.

Matt is in the camera business, meaning he makes all his bicycle money by using those wonderful instruments. Matt is a traveling man too and that meant he needed a traveling bike and now he has one. Because of the S&S Couplers, the bike can packed down into a hard case and disguised as camera gear. Matt’s basically living the dream!

You can see some of his bicycle work at Team Dream, Tracko and here at the Radavist.
