Cam Zink YT prototype slopestyle bike

Apparently Cam Zink was so excited to show off his new Birzman Tiny Tanker and Maha Apogee III that he forgot his prototype YT Industries Slopestyle bike as in the background. Ok, not really – he even mentions it on his Instagram feed. Rumored to be soon coming to the U.S., the carbon prototype looks to have a BB concentric pivot due to the ability to run singlespeed.

P.Slope anyone? Other than the way the shock is mounted to the front triangle, it looks almost identical.

Well, my comment was deleted. I sincerely apologize if the tone was harsh, but I stand by my words: the bike was shown at the Red Bull District Ride in Germany con June.

@ JF: You mean a Dobermann, right? The design the specialized copied and made in aluminum rather than steel?

asymmetric shock-yoke with a BB centric pivot… Interesting. Demo-esque?
