Tanto's Underway




Most of the guys down south have their new tanto's running now. These bikes are light, I mean crazy LIGHT, fast, strong, and can manual like butter! today was the first day to take mine out to one of our fun kickers we like to play on, and i got 360's down within minutes! if you want a bike that can be an awesome dirtjumper, and rail the 4x courses super fast, than you want the tanto 4x.




we will be at Nathrop, Colorado this weekend racing and showing off our new bikes. feel free to stop by the pits and have a nice cold one with the One Ghost crew!

Coming along nicely



We are projecting a retail cost of our Tanto hard tail frame and rear dropout kit only for $579.99 matte anodized black with laser etched graphics. The frames will be available retail direct through any One Ghost Industries team member or direct from the factory by calling or e-mailing us!
go to oneghost.com for contact information.

We are finalizing the Longbow and Genken frames now as well as the Wakazashi frame so we can bring them to you by mid summer.
The Longbow is our Super D/Trail frame with the Genken being our Mini-DH/FR frame. Basically an overbuilt Longbow with 150mm x 12mm rear/ 83mm BB, slacker geometry and more gussets.
There is information on both bikes on the web site now.
Both bikes will look real similar but have very different geometry and graphics packages and sizing. The Longbow is closer to an XC bike with the Genken closer to a DH frame.

One Ghost Industries aquired by Yeti Cycles in hostile takeover

March 31/2009 Two of Yeti Cycles Executives walked into the One Ghost Industries/Lunchbox Labs office in Portland Oregon at the same time as one walked into the Lunchbox Labs that OG owns in east Boulder, CO (operated by Moto G.P.) where they each proceeded to "aquire" every aspect of design, creation, and prototyping done by One Ghost Industries, LLC.
Yeti was also sighted leaving the scene holding one of the new Tanto hard tail frames and was quoted as saying "Bad Ass" or "baarrrreeee aarrsssee" or some other noise as it grabbed the new hard tail frame and stuck it between it's legs and pretended to ride it away.
The guys at OG are still in absolute AWE as they never thought theat a Yeti could actually RIDE a bike let alone felt threatened enough to come and take all of their bikes and ability to produce more.
In light of this whole situation, One Ghost Industries will be forced to pull the plug on Lunchbox Labs and on any possible production of their bikes. The guys are all taking this really hard and were quoted as saying "it'll be much harder to rebuild the company, especially without our keg-data aquizition equipment, our kegerator and tap, our wall mounted bottle opener/time clock, Ghost's dog bones..." as as GP and Tank chimed in here.."and OUR BIKES! Those hairy ba$%ARds took our bikes! We can't even ride to the pub now!"
All in all, the guys are looking up in the face of losing everything..
"Good news is we have proof that Yeti's are real and they DO like bikes so that's cool" Maybe I can sell the photo back to Yeti and make some money. After all, I could use a job now!"
