Get ‘em while they’re ripe and juicy.

G-Sport also has the matching Safety Orange hubs and rims!
And, if you want to go all out, Sunday Bikes has a matching Aaron Ross Funday frame!

One other thing that’s new in this bike check is Aaron Ross’ signature tire! It keeps the keyboard theme of all his other signature parts and the thread pattern are inverted keys which spell out some fun messages from Aaron Ross and a handful from the contest we held last year (we’ll be announcing the winners soon). Click around the flipbook above for more photos and a complete parts list!

Click around the flipbook above for the full parts list. Available now in Mint Green are Vandero 2 hubs, Hazard Lite rims, Evo II brakes, Monolever and the Aaron Ross Veteran Saddle in Herringbone!

Vital BMX just put up a video bike check with Adam Banton!

To match Aaron’s new Funday frame, we now have our Director and Spacebar forks available in Watermelon Green. It makes for a refreshing summer treat that’s healthy and fun for the entire family. Contact your local shops and mail orders now!

Sunday posted some pics of Aaron’s Watermelon bike the other day and if you’re interested in what parts he’s running, here’s the list. Also, in case you guys are wondering, matching Watermelon Spacebars and Director Forks are scheduled to come sometime in May!

FRAME: Sunday, Funday
FORKS: Director
BARS: Aaron Ross Spacebars
STEM: Elementary
GRIPS: Aaron Ross Grips
CRANKS: Twombolt
SPROCKET: Vermont, 30t
PEDALS: JCPC
RIMS: G-Sport Rollcages
HUB (F): Vandero
HUB (R): G-Sport Ratchet w/Hub Guard
TIRE (F): Aitken, P-Lyte, 2.125″
TIRE (R): Path, P-Lyte, 2.1″
POST: Intac
SEAT: Aaron Ross Veteran
LEVER: Monolever, Small

1.) Do you do any custom modifications to your bike? A little bit. I cut a pinkies width off my bars. Took a grind wheel to the JC/PC’s to trim the pins down and took half out on one of my left sides. I replaced the stock axle in the Rachet Hub with the aluminum 3/8″ [kit]. That’s it. Small stuff, everything comes so dialed stock. I don’t touch the frame. It’s perfect.

2.) As far as the setup goes, what are some key things you’re particular about? You guys have told me I’m pretty particular, I never realized it. The flagpole seat post of mine has about a fist full of post. BARS: I run them even with my head tube (74.5), maybe a tad forward of that. BRAKES: They have to work good. If they don’t, what’s the point of having them? So I uasually have those dialed; absolute minimal tension on the springs, with Tri-flow marinated housing. Chain has got to be tight for whips. Tire pressure around 95psi.

3.) With the front brake missing in action, what type of tricks have you found yourself doing more of lately? Turndowns and trying to learn nothings. I’m playing around with some footjam stuff too. Barspins are more fun without the lever there to smash your fingers.

4.) We have you listed as a nomad in the catalog. Where are you at these days? Ah man, that was funny when I saw that! I guess it’s true, everywhere is the answer. What I do own has been in storage in SLC for the last 6 months. Since then, I did some shows in Cleveland, went to Signapore for a week, went back to Clevo & recorded a new song for my part in Eastern’s “Death of Fun,” spent more than a week in NC, VA, DE, OH, went on Mega Tour through the midwest, then finally was driving back to UT with intensions of a 1 week stop in Clevo. Well, it was too fun for one week, so it ended up being 3 weeks. I’m here now going to Ray’s MT bike park grand opening this weekend and THEN packing up and driving to UT. I’ve honestly been enjoying floating around, def been keeping busy. Really looking forward to Utah though.

5.) With fall coming to a close and winter around the corner, what’s your plan for the months to follow?
Move out of my storage unit. Haha. Move into the my friends house, Kenny Sanders, first and foremost. Snowboarding, can not wait for that. Going on Eastern’s “Inside Out” trips. For a year I’ve had an open invite to record with my buddy Jelly in San Diego and having Ray Barbee sit in on some of my new material and dance on the fret board (lead guitar). Haha. So I wanna take Ray and Jelly up on that offer soon. I plan on taking an AZ & Vegas trip for some VitalBMX stuff too, maybe even film a web vid.

We just received a bunch of new Fluorescent Yellow parts again. Aaron Ross Spacebars, Classic Race Forks, Classic Dirt Forks and Director Forks can now be purchased in the world’s most popular highlighter color.

A couple bits of Aaron related news. There’s a bike check up over at DigBMX.com and as always, you can count on it being one of the most colorful bikes in BMX. Ocean Blue and Fluorescent Pink in full effect.

His signature grip is also available in white now. If you want to treat your palms to some luxurious softness, these grips are the way to go.

I was trying to find a photo of a lumberjack’s axe and came across the one you see above. Available now in fluorescent orange are Lumberjack Bars, Aaron Ross Spacebars and Classic Race Forks. Hit up suspenders.com to keep your pants up and contact your bike shops and mail-orders to get some Aaron Ross inspired colors on your bicycle!

Speaking of Ross the Boss, you can read about Aaron’s top 5 favorite moments on The Office over at ESPN. More photos of fluorange can be found after the link.

Oh yeah and Sunday has a matching Funday to go with it!!!

Matt Beringer: Wallpaper at RideBMX.com ( Widescreen | Standard )

Wallpaper madness! Here are three new ones for you to pick from. If you happen to be sitting in a computer lab (or have a printer handy), open up this PDF version of the Aaron Ross ad and print it out. Tape it up somewhere and shoot a photo of it. Then, e-mail the photo to aaron-ross-is-awesome(at)odysseybmx[dot]com or add it to the Odyssey Flickr Group.

Aaron Ross, notorious chocolate almond eater and occasional provider of autographs for iPhones, talks about his Spacebar. It’s much more fun than the computer equivalent version and it comes in blue.

Jim Bauer, product description orator, provides you with a detailed tour of what to expect from Odyssey within the following months.
