Now, they have a website that will be up and running next month, and modified, limited-edition variants of the Armageddon and Disco Volante will be released, and then, new frame designs for 2008!
Karpiel is probably going to open back up, just like the site says. Hopefully they'll do better this time around. Its unfortunate there is such a stigma attached to their name, but they are great bikes.
I think that's unrelated. I met a few of those guys when they came out to AZ to ride.
Pretty sure Jan is behind this, although I have no idea in what fashion.
I think its cool, I'm curious to see what they've done to update the Army!
I'm glad Karpiel is back, they are great bikes. As for the one I recomend is the disco volante, all the others are overkill unless your name is Josh Bender.

my freind down the street bought a disco, he had no idea about riding, bought it just for the hell of it, i ride it more than he does honestly. but back to the bike, the disco pedals pretty dam good, pretty light and he has a monster t on it, i personally love the frame i would love a new one
Their Shock killer (leverage ratio) frames are outdated this days when brands like intense are testing the use of longer shocks for the same travel in order to get down the leverage.
Said that i would love to ride a karpiel bike just beacuse I like all the creepy background story of the company hahahha. This Jan is a Myth to me.
thats the apocalypse. they designed it specifically for drops 50ft and up. theres a computer chip in one of the shocks that counts how much air time you have. and if you go any less than 50ft. the shocks lock up and you land on a 60lb hardtail. sooo sick sonnn
