Words from Taj- ''This book is 164 pages of my cartoons and doodles. There is a bunch of bicycle comics (including a number from Sunday Comics with Taj series on Pinkbike), lots of low- brow humor, dad jokes, questionable puns, and some things that are probably only funny to me. There's a few things I'm actually serious about, but hopefully you can't tell, and even a few essays. I call it a collection of not-too-artsy-fartsy work I've done over the last few years (though, there are a few fart jokes)".
The Taj bike has always been about blending the tough and simple sensibilities of a BMX bike with a frame size that you can also comfortably sit down and pedal. The 2021 model makes the jump to 27.5” wheels which are still agile enough for playing around, and even better for cruisin’. The frame, fork, handlebars, and cranks are all reliable chromoly. The single-speed drivetrain and Odyssey brakes are as dependable and straightforward as they can possibly be. The Taj is a bike that is fun to ride, made to last and a breeze to keep rolling. ###section### Product Specs FRAME MATERIAL: 100% Track Certified Chromoly WHEEL SIZE: 27.5" TOP TUBE LENGTH: 24.25" CHAIN STAY LENGTH: 17.2" HEADTUBE ANGLE: 71° SEAT TUBE ANGLE: 71° FORKS: 100% Chromoly.
