Cielencki ad

Be sure to check out the new Ride Magazine (with corey martinez on the cover)for the Jim Cielencki pedal ad. We took an unusual approach at making the ad, and hopefully you are as excited with it as we are. Thanks to Jim bauer's ingenuity, rich hirsch, mouser and jim c. for helping out. Also to Scott Papiro for doing a great job on such short notice.

Where is Odyssey?

We have been filming for the Odyssey "untitled" video project.
Tell me where this is and get a prize.
More coming...

Trade Show

Jim and myself just returned from the Trade Show at the east coast terminal skatepark in binghamton New York. It was good seeing old friends and hanging out with everyone. To bad the rain wrecked our trails session.
Thanks to Crandall and Jeff Harrington for putting this show on, and inviting us to attend. Hopefully next time every BMX bike shop will send a rep to check out the BMX Specific trade show.

12/13 tooth drivers

Today we received some samples for our 12/13 tooth one piece drivers. why would anyone want a 12 or 13 tooth driver you ask?? simple. Many frames are still being made with brakes mounted on the chainstays, therefore the smallest you can (usually) go gear wise is 36/13. Considering you cant go any lower, and you probably wont be going up, why not have a solid one piece driver to make your hub a little better (without adding on any weight). One piece is better than 4.
The 10t driver is on the way, so we figured we might as well have one piece drivers all the way up to 13. the 12t is on my bike now and it feels awesome.

PLEASE NOTE: the 12/13t drivers are not available yet. These are just samples for us to test before production.

Lightweight

After much cutting, trimming, and a custom prototype of the new "flame" frame from KINK, Jim C has gotten his bike weight down to 12 pounds.
hang loose bro.

Samurai Pictures

These are some photos that I had from the Samurai Trip that Rooftop invited me on. Despite a little rain, everybody had an amazing trip. 1.) Nor Cal sunset before we eat at Applebee’s 2.)I forget where this is but we drove on this road forever. 3.) Camping and then waking up to swim in hot springs is the best, Southern Oregon. The Samurai Video will be out for Christmas, watchout!
