MODS: I cut my bars 1/2 inch per side

I watched Anthem 2 last night and was blown away with Aitken’s part (and the whole video for that matter). It’s unreal how much style and power than man has. Literally not a minute or two after, a text from him comes in completing the parts list for the bike check you see above.

Anyway, he’s been making some progress in his road to recovery and though he’s not back to 100% yet, he was firing out some style over the dubs in Beringer’s yard when we hung out with him last month! He even clocked some clips for an edit we have in the works.

He likes his bikes long and low with a little harder gearing (28/9) right off the bat. Here’s his most current bike, which happens to match our latest semi-matte teal color kit.

Follow him on Twitter.com/nightwolfSLC.

The first bike up on the list is Aaron Ross’ Orange! Safety Orange is the new colorway we have lined up. The only part we have available right now for sale is the Aaron Ross Grip but you can expect everything else to come trickling in later this year.

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 (credit karen here)). Click around the flipbook above for more photos and a complete parts list!
