Tom Dugan recently built up a new Terrible One barcode and loaded it up with some Odyssey parts. Click around the flipbook above to check it out and stay tuned for a video with Tom later this week!
We’ve received some questions here and there about what makes the Flatware Thumb Tack grip flatland-specific. While there certainly isn’t anything about it that would hold you back from using it in other genres of BMX, the design and thought process behind it is what lends it to be most suitable for Flatland. To help explain it further, Chase Gouin wrote up a detailed analysis of the grip:
We have a new flatland specific grip available known as the Thumb Tack. It utilizes the same olastic rubber compound as the Adam Banton 2 grip so they’re soft to the touch and still very durable. Just like most of our other grips, the Thumb Tack comes with a pair of Par Ends! Available now in Black, White and Ocean Blue.
