Hudski, a new bike brand based in Northern California, announced the launch of its Hudski Doggler, a lightweight rigid frame and fork design with three build options – City, Gravel, Mountain.

Co-founders Will Hudson and Brian Syzkowny used their industrial design degrees and Syzkowny’s experience at Specialized to develop the frame, fork and handlebars to meet specific performance needs they felt were missing from bike brands.

The lightweight aluminum frame and carbon fork platform are built with mountain bike components for easy maintenance. The generous tire clearance creates an all-condition platform while the dropper post provides convenience and comfort to the city rider while giving a performance advantage to the gravel and mountain rider.

“The emergence of the gravel and adventure segments really made it possible to design around a single platform because the bike world now has large volume 700c gravel tires, a wide range of 27.5 tires and dropper seat posts have been accepted as standard OE equipment,” said Syzkowny. “These are all the right ingredients to design an extremely versatile bike that you couldn’t before.”
