Some things to buy with hard earned......

Here is Ian Schwartz new Sunday! A work of art, especially when compared to the new hip Shaun Jinks is botching together at IMG. Note the new rust proof black finish, build in pivotal seat post, integrated chain tensioners, and suave new graphics.

The V3 Elementary stem is now available in gold. Bling bling!!!


Love 'em or hate 'em, the Director forks from Odyssey are mighty popular. These are the first batch (until now) of CS2's available in the UK. A built in bearing race for even less weight, the unique offset legs, rust proof finish, sealed steerer tube, CNCed compression bolt. It's black or white - you either like them or not.


Luke Marchant's Campillo


Luke Marchant came by the other day (see above) sporting a pretty amazing custom Campillo with all the new Fly Bikes parts. Click here for Bart and FF's feature on that bad boy. You might want to also hit this thread on Bikeguide to check another sweet Campillo with Director forks.

Odyssey Flatland Forks

We've had a few requests to take a look at Odyssey's new flatland forks and another request to use proper English. So, in order to kill two birds with one stone, peruse these exquisite bicycle stunt forks.
Odyssey has an extensive array of bicycle forks. Each one of these forks features this exquisitely machined upper cap. Spiffing.

With exception of Chad Johnson, exponents of BMX flatland have a propensity towards utilizing their stunt axle extenders. This cutaway facilitates the use of axle extenders whilst maintaining a steep offset.

One feels that removable brake mounts represent the pinnacle of versatility whereas the alternative may be seen as a monsterous carbuncle. Splendid. What what!

Odyssey's plethora of forks will employ the utilization of this integrated washer more and more. A weight saving device that also simplifies the fork. This will shortly be standard issue on Race forks, Freestyle forks, and these aforementioned Flatland forks.
Anyone for tea and stickies? Tally ho!

Kurt Rasmussen bike check


Jim send us these photos of Kurt Rasmussen's Sunday! a while back but we thought we'd wait until the new frames are nearly here to run it.


'Team Shralp' yeah!!!

Odyssey Classic stems are sweet looking either way up


Gland III hub guard from G-Sport. Spokes never had it so good.


Trial mix pedals, Odyssey mid bb, Wombolt cranks, Vermont sprocket, and Path tyre. Innit.

Proper...at last!!!

This is the tried and trusted Magnalite 2 cassette hub. We gone back to anodized colours on this order and we're psyched how they came out.

This is the new polished colourway that is limited to this shipment. The team sprocket has been on Mike Miller, Max Woods, Gav Shortall, Carlo Griggs and Jamie Cameron's bikes for the best part of a year and despite being much lighter than nearly (if not) all other sprockets they've help up perfect...and boy is it pretty!!!

What? Mike Miller's TTL frame now comes in translucent colourways (purple, brown, and black) and features new removable brake mounts and cable guides + art form Aversion's Louis Mikolay and a revised weight saving head tube.

This is how the polished rims came out....hot! Notice the new logos.

These are the revised alloy bar end. They come in all the usual colourways and they are quite a bit smaller than the previous ones - so they wont punish your hands when your grips wear down a little.

Oh......here's the Team sprocket in brown.

These seat clamps have been like hen's teeth in the UK. There is none lighter .

Some product you may have missed

Say hello to the CS2 race fork in Limited Edition white. These have an integrated bearing race and all the race fork features you know and love (or not).

This is Simple's entry into the fork market. Dubbed the Monarchy fork and available in black, white, grey, and silver. We only have a few of these left.

This is the Vandero II wheel - Hazard Light rims, Vandero II hubs and Odyssey's tried and trusted spokes. We have these in chrome and this classic black.



This is Odyssey's V3 cassette wheel with a chrome Hazard Light rim, black V3 cassette hub (with either a 10t driver or cogs), Odyssey spokes, and free rim tape.



Holla at these Odyssey Trail Mix pedals in Limited Edition......failing that just buy some. Alloy looseball only and not here for long.

This Simple sprocket is named the Copenhagen. It comes in white, black, grey, and silver and a bunch of different sizes. Make Neils exceptionaly wealthy and buy 71 of these.

This is Odyssey's Million Dollar Sprocket. It doesn't cost a million dollars but if you kept it for an awful long time it might save you quite a bit in chains.

Wombolts and Fly cranks both come with a 22mm bottom bracket (and Primo come to that) so this mid bb wont be a surprise. Get one of these for you new Ian Schwartz Sunday! frame and you'll be set.

According to the kids on Bikeguide this is the Don Juan of front hubs. We have them in stock with the new 17mm bolts. 36h black only!!

This is the new Fly bikes sprocket with integrated 22m washer. Black, white, and dark red only.


Fly headsets now come in two stack heights (regular -see left and low - see right). The low one means you can run some sweet bars without having them too high. Kind of similar to the idea behind F-it's DLD stem but cheaper.

These Fly grips are in a colour called Dirty Green......them Spanish fellas have a funny idea of colour 'cos these are more like brown.....arguably a nicer brown than the actual brown grips. Whatever they're in two lengths and sold individually and keep your paws on the bars.

This is the Mike Aitken signature Odyssey seat. Ideal for anyone who thinks Pivotals bend too easy, or kids upgrading the massive seat from their new complete, or anyone that wants a lightweight and stylish seat in general. It's black, it's white, it's W and B. Hooo yheea!
