And you though he just killed shit on bikes? Tyler’s been posting links on twitter to some flicks by Sarah Rhoads…theyre pretty damn stellar. I think its way cool to see the stuff everyone does outside the bike scene…be it collecting Japanese Kaiju or shooting fashion photos. Good stuff man.

Bear Bikes: Freewheel Fixed.

Posted by: kris on Friday, March 19th, 2010 3:07 pm

So a good portion of this edit from Bears Bikes is fixed stuff…with a bunch of flatland influenced tricks. Though, toward the end noticed what looked like coasting just before the nice backpedal shot. Ha. People have been speculating when this might happen (its just a guy doing tricks on a single speed…i get it) but having an edit of the same guy on the same bike (that’s being marketed as a fixed gear) is what got me. Just thought it a bit funny…

Dolphin and Destroyer.

Posted by: kris on Monday, March 15th, 2010 7:39 pm

Saw these over at Prolls earlier today…and was a bit intrigued (posting from a phone can get a bit annoying at times so some things must wait. ha.) The destroyer is looking pretty solid with the only thing worrying me being the drilled dropouts. A lot of people are running pegs these days on freestyle frames and it may pose a problem. Curved top tube on the Dolphin reminds me a bit of a cruiser but i could see it allowing you to slam your seat a bit lower if youre into that. Both of these are nice looking pieces overall…more on these at their home LSD Bikes.

Threw some wheels on the alley bike today to grab some lunch…I didn’t think about getting flats with a peg on and not having a long socket. Improvised. This thing is fun! Should probably run a coaster on it rather than fixed…oh well.

Master-Piece Bags Spring/Summer.

Posted by: kris on Thursday, March 18th, 2010 1:49 pm

Last month while enjoying me some Disneyland, i stopped by LA Brakelss to check it out. While out cruising the beach for a few we were approached by some gentlemen from Japan who wanted to take some shots of their bags. Weird day. Ha.

Sure enough, the photos were used in the Spring/Summer 2010 lookbook for Master-Piece bags. They have a real extensive line of stuff from bags to backpacks, keychains and fanny packs. Its all solid looking stuff made from some good materials (they have a listing at the end of the lookbook). I wouldnt mind getting my hands on a few things in there…

25c Randos at iMiNUSD.

Posted by: kris on Thursday, March 11th, 2010 10:43 pm

iMiNUSD got in some of the new 25c randos everyone is talking about. Vittoria makes some of the most solid tires out there and this offering is sure to make a lot commuters, hill smashers and long riders happy.

25c Randos at iMiNUSD.

Theyve even got some time in on them already and are felling them. Apparently these are a bit easier to get on than past Randos (ive spent too much time messing with these in the past) and are obviously quicker on the move. I guess the Gan Well is nice too.
