Long in the works, San Francisco\u2019s Slug Bikes has finally launched its titanium hardtail, the Slug Gasser. Available in two mechanical build kits or as a frameset, this alluring hardtail features some interesting 3D-printed tech. For more, check out all the details below\u2026<\/p>\n

Though you\u2019ll have seen the Slug Gasser<\/a> featured before, the brand hasn\u2019t actually held stock of the bike since launching in February of 2025. Originally starting with a titanium gravel bike called the Earthling, the brand\u2019s second official model is a 120mm suspension-corrected titanium hardtail with UDH compatibility and clearance for 29 x 2.6\u2033 tires. <\/p>\n

Hitting their site today, the Gasser uses heat-treated and custom butted 3Al-2.5V titanium tubing and has three water bottle positions, rear rack mounts, internal dropper routing, and a T47 bottom bracket standard. The brand has also underlined its use of a 3D-printed titanium yoke. Designed by co-founder Byron Lee, the Lucky Yoke is said to offer variable wall thickness and natural flex. It\u2019s made of grade 5 titanium and allows the bike to maintain clearance for 2.6\u2033 tires and a 36T chainring.<\/p>\n

The Gasser is available as a frame-only for $3,000, or in two complete mechanical build kits\u2014the All Gas and the All Day. Both retail for $5,900 but differ in their drivetrain, fork, and tire options.
