Funkier than a mosquito's tweeter

We have a big shipment of Fly Bikes stuff arriving this week. Feast your beady eyes on some of this Spanish company's hottest property.

These new female hubs are pretty low, pretty wide, and pretty damn pretty.
Campillo's flew out (faster than Torres) the last time we saw them. Here's why. Flat white or flat raw on these.
These CNCed Fly brakes are now available in grey (along with all the other hardgoods.
Luna bars are the Dylan Smith signature signature. Tall (8") and not too wide (26.5") like Iniesta but less costly if you want to buy some.
Fly grips (135 and 155mm lengths) are sold individually. We also have these in the o.g. gum colour.
Fly bar ends are cheap like San Miguel. Although try to avoid ramming these down your throat on a Friday night!
What to you call a painter with brown finger's? Nevermind, here is the new grey parts range. Picasso by the way.

These are the new front rims.......they don't need to be cross laced. These are easy to do up.

These tyres are folding and thus can fit in your backpack when you go riding.......a bit like golf legend Severiano Ballesteros only Seve's head would poke out the top if you had a small bag. Fly's Fino seat.....that's seat not Seat. Try a car shop for them.
The matching post......this is taking too long. Headset cups. Spanish are good at winning cups. This low rise version is definately a winner.
High rise. Like Torremelinos.

Tierra bars and frame. In raw. Like sushi......not as good as tapas.

These are the new colourways for Fly's product range. Orange, pink, and turqoise are gone.....like evil fascist dictator General Franco.

We have 22mm mid bb's in all the new colourways including this blood red.
Fly cranks are coming in 175mm only this time. Flat raw (seen here), flat black and flat (not dirty) white.

Up above is the Luna frame and down below is the bashguard.

Jah Jah Jersey

Irie Irie. Mike Taylor sent this picture of his conscious new Sunday! We're starting to sort out the UK Odyssey team at last. So far it's Mike, Joe Cox, and Fraggle, with probably a couple more to follow.

These are the new Fly bikes stems in either 45mm or 50mm and coming in all your favourites Fly colours. This stem is super lightwieght and basically a refined version on the original Potencia.

We got a very small shipment of the new Ilegal Pivotal seat and seat posts. None of our brands has made a Pivotal seat up until now so we're psyched that this one came with a slim seat and is not following the recent path of garish colours and wacky screen prints.
In other news, Miller's bike has now been retrieived minus the Fly pedals. Thanks to everyone concerned with getting that back, not least The Boarding House in Exeter.

Miller's Bike Stolen

Mike had his bike stolen at NASS.....if anyone manages to recover said steed give us a bell and we'll hook you up with something that not every bike ride in the UK knows is hookie.

In the meantime check out this little video of Mike in action. He removed the button marked 'massive' from under his grips after his run so don't expect to see this happening in South Devon any time soon.

I'm pretty sure you know this but it's a 21" trans black Proper TTL with new-ish Fly Ruben tyres and pedals and mainly Proper parts.

New fire from Odyssey

Yep. The Aaron Ross flouresent red parts are here. Seen here are Hazard Light rims, Wombolt cranks, Trailmix pedals, Director forks, Evo II brake, and Space bars. Add Lumberjack bars, Monolevers, PC pedals, Aaron's signature grips, and Race forks to that list and you've got a whole lot of bright red. Please note that limited edition means it's a one-off run and we wont have this stuff in stock 2 months from now, let alone 2 years.
Odyssey Linear Slic cables don't break real quick, don't ram your brakes on if you chuck the bars once, and do come in these hot new colourways as well as the original black, white, red, and blue.
The long awaited clear PC pedals are coming next week. We're already sold out but there's another shipment (these and the original black) following just behind. The solid colours are limited edition and (again) will be gone after this delivery.
This is the New Wave frame from Sunday! It's basically the same deal as the Ian Schwartz frames we had a few weeks back but without the integrated pivotal post and with more conventional graphics. The forks are Morning 2.1's (with integrated bearing race).
The Kevlar bead (Klyte) tyres are 20% lighter than the regular version. This is the Path version. All of your Odyssey favourites now come with the folding kevlar option.
Mike Aitken's Nightwolf range of products (through Lotek) now expands in to the seating arena (through Odyssey). Available in the original T-shirt artwork colour of purple or a more restrained grey.
Somebody in the house say yeah! Alright then but these stems are pretty sleek looking. Likely to overtake the Classic as the popular alternative to the Elementary.
Team grips, Banton grips, and Trailmix pedals in blue marble/blue splat. I don't want to keep harping on about the Lim..............so I wont.
We got have Odyssey t-shirts in stock now. Witness the Electronical style of 'Bright lights' above and Hitchcock style of 'Billboard - day' below.

Bike checks are gay?





I don't know! Another IMG employee's bike on the internet! Witness Proper TTL 2 (with sample sticker from the new pack), prototype hub (which will be slimmed down and altered before production), custom wheels, Path in the pack and Ruben up front, sample Proper grips etc etc. Clean and simple.

New Fly Website


Check out the new Fly bikes website. A lot of the new stuff is on there including the stem and front hub. All of this stuff will be with us shortly.

Also check out the Sunday website for a sneek peek of the Second Wave frames - which will be here in a few weeks.

Hooooo yheeea!!!

These are the new colour ways for the Odyssey PC pedals. These colours are limited to the forthcoming order.

A handful of clear ones also crept in to the country this week. All of these pedals (along with the ubiquitous black ones) will be in the UK shortly. Any fans of the white PC pedals might be relieved to know that they will be back later in the year.

Anyone old enough to remember Spangles? Those were tasty right?

ODSY Beats and Pisces

Hen's teeth? Nope those are the mighty elusive G-Sport bolts. As seen on newer Marmoset hubs
Odyssey Vandero II's.

Classic stems are ideal for riders who like their bars raised up a little and distributors who are out of stock of Elementarys.

Michael Aitken's range of Odyssey seats come in white, black, and black denim. We have all three in stock so take your pick.

Anyone looking for a slightly smaller lighter seat than the Michael Aitken model might want to check out the Senior II in black and now this chic white (ooh la la).

It's all about the white. Celebrate the Summer weather and keep your front wheel rolling at the same time with this Vandero II hub.

The Monolever drought is over. All sort of colours and sizes (though right hand only). Call for details.

We've also had Factory, Billboard, and Bright Lights T-Shirts, crank bolts, brake hangers, Electronical DVD's, Junior seats, JC spindles, and all sorts of other goodies arrive today.

Proper at last!!!

We finally received a new delivery of Proper stuff. Everything came out looking really nice.
System
beat us to the product photos.

This is the new Team sprocket. Clean, simple, lightweight and strongest enough for all but the dirtiest of moshers.


Below you'll see the translucent brown (which looks like a nickel plate) TTL frame now with removable brake mounts and all new graphics. So far Mike Miller has black, Paul Jeffries has purple, and Shaun Jinks has this colourway.
