Rumor: New X-Metal

[dave m]

I just now read some stuff about these expected frames and i cannot stop laughing with their names given.What the hell were they thinking...Plus they are ungly especially the Madman.It reminded of the optician guide glasses Well done Oakley!!!

That is exactly what I thought when I saw them, the names and jaunty angles of the I presume) screws etc looks a bit like they are trying too hard to make it edgy.

Wonder if they're sticking with T6 or using something different.

I'm betting on something different.

You can still get to the pewter/tungsten one via the link on the previous page too. But there was one with daily prizm, one with sapphire polar...

There are also rendering photos of each in a Ferrari collection theme posted elsewhere on the intrawebz.

So, I was having a chat with a guy I know who works for Oakley.. He told me they're x-metal frames and the Badmen are supposedly bigger than an X-Squared in size.

Hopefully he's right on both counts..
