2013 Morewood Kalula

The Kalula...so nice, I did it twice!  Seriously, check out the photos below of my previous Kalula builds.  My house is situated near three bike parks in Colorado.  Yes, I am blessed but you don't need to live near a resort to enjoy the Kalula's 7" of low-leverage, freeride travel.  Go big anywhere!  Run it at your favorite freeride spot, local DH track, in the park, or wherever.  Kalula means "easily" in Zulu as in how easily you will be able to attack freeride terrain.  This bike is easily my favorite Morewood model because you get on it, ride it, and never wipe the smile off your face.

The Kalula is one of three 7" models in the 2013 Morewood line-up which also includes the enduro focused Jabula and the budget minded Zama. 


Beautiful Bos build.

Name another handmade, adjustable geometry, championship winning DH bike that costs as much as an Izimu...you can't.  This is the privateer frame of choice.  2008 US National Pro Men's Championship?  2013 Australian Women's Championship?  Other Championships around the globe? Check, check, and check. 

You East Coasters need to get a hold of Ben at Bunny Hop Bikes, who has become the Morewood Izimu King.  Check out some of his past Izimu builds here.
