News Slic Kable

Introducing:
Linear SLS Slic Kables

Our new Linear SLS™ Slic Kable® is available now! “SLS” stands for Super Linear Slic, which is exactly what this cable is. The features are as follows:

  • Utilizes the original BMX Linear Slic Kable® housing to prevent binding when the bars are rotated.
  • Factory installed ferrule ends with the inner volcano shape to prevent housing blow out; A Linear Slic Kable® standard since 2008.
  • Specially coated inner wire for ultra low friction, a proven feature resurrected from our once famous Brakeline cables.
  • Gyro® lug included at one end of the inner wire for use with detanglers.
  • Available in Black, White and Purple. More colors coming soon.

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.

Greyboy and Truly have a bike check up on the Ride site, along with an interview about Impakt Sidehacks and an online version of their Sidehack Love article from earlier this year. Constantly carrying 315lbs plus the force of landings and grinds, these 3 wheeled cousins can take and handle a lot of abuse. Check out the bike check to see what type of parts they’re running on it!
