BICYCLES AND DIRT!

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

If you like those two amazing things then you will love this! Deluxe BMX ( one of the raddest companies ever ) has just released its first DVD .Welcome to Deluxe is basically a video about the Deluxe team of trailboss shredders going on one amazing trail riding trip all over the UK. No concrete or plywood action here just 100% dirty goodness. The team and the spots are simply awesome. We are proud to be the first shop in Aus with copies of this masterpiece.

LOOKING GOOD IN THE HOOD

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

The Gods above (2020) bestowed an awesome new DSLR upon us. A step up from the 3.2 megapixels we had become quite fond of, Hell On Wheels will now be brought to you in HD.

This is a shot of the shop this evening, looking lonelier than usual but prettier than Luscious Lou Wade!

JOE IS FEELING FIT!

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

Oh My!

I think we have lost our minds! A Fitbikeco PRK 3 complete for $750? Joe’s feeling it! With a saving of $249 he should be!

As Tom would say, “She’s spec’d up to the wazoo”…

I believe the English translates from hessian mechanic language to “This is a lovely bicycle with many fine components”

SHADOW FIXED GEAR PARTS!

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

It was only a matter of time before good ol Ronnie B over at The Shadow Conspiracy started making parts for the fixed gear market. I cant think of any better BMX brand to do so. (more…)

THE BANDIT RAMP LIVES TO BE RIDDEN ONCE MORE!!

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

After its birth nearly 2 years ago, the 2020 BMX Bandit 25th anniversary ramp is being resurrected once more for the Vintage BMX swap meet this coming Saturday. This monster has been sitting  dormant in the our backyard since that awesome day down at Manly beach back in late 2008.

Super rad fun master flash Nigel Begg enjoying life on a bike at the beach. Nigel is the man and dont you forget it!!

The monster as it is now. She was a little rough but not too bad considering it has been out in the weather for almost 2 years. After a quick mock up and some minor repairs and a small sketchy session, shes almost good to go. With a fresh coat of paint it will look amazing come Saturday.

Be there!

EYE BURNING GOODNESS!

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

The long awaited 2010 version of the increasingly popular SE Bikes and DC shoes collaboration has arrived. This year they have released two bikes, and they are so hot that they will literally be burned into your memory forever.

The PK ripper fixed gear shares the exact same spec as the non DC version ( shown on here a week or so ago ), but in one of the most eye catching colourways ever.That is a whole lot of bike for $1150, Velocity Chukka rims, Vittoria Randonnuers,48 splined cranks and loads of other goodies to get you fixin downtown in style.

The quadangle has changed a bit for 2010. They are now a 26 inch version to better accommodate longer cruisier rides. At just $949 this tantalisingly tasteful tennis ball yellow dream is amazing as they come. Did I mention that both of these puppies do infact have lightening bolts and bottle openers on their seats…wow!

Back in the day bike tests were badass. Here is the front page of the official BMX Action test of the original SE quadangle looptail. Why the hell don’t modern magazines test important things like how well a bike fares being jumped into a pool ? This is important consumer info that we are all being denied of !!

THE COPPER PROPER!

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

Our latest custom build has to be one of the favourites of all time for us. The Copper Proper was pretty much a no brainer. “Hey we have that frame and those bars in the exact same colour, if we put all black parts on it, that would make a rad complete”, said us. A rad complete indeed.

Proper TTL frame with Proper team forks and TTXL bars, proper microlite stem, Twenty powerbite style cranks, Eclat surge PC pedals and Complex seat/ post combo, Twenty hubs on Alex rims and Odyssey Path tyres. Not a bad little package for $1299.
