fixed trials Chris Akrigg

Loving the trials mixed in, can definately see myself in this. I ride with a similar style, also coming from a trials background, but Chris Akrigg is just awesome. Been a fan when I was younger starting out in trials and now a fan of his fixed riding as well. Sick!!!

fixed gear london nike 6.0 tunnel jam with tom and tony

Whilst Tom Lamarche and Tony Fast were in the country we got to go ride the nike 6.0 tunnel. It was so sick!
The van ride down was messy as fuck, in the first 10 minute we had a red bull fight destroying a case or two. BAD idea, red bul smells light vomit after a while making me and Tom feel quite sick. Did I mention we were in the back of a transit van with no windows. When we stoped to chuck and get some fresh air Taliban Tom found a bag of food the supermarket was throwing out, also a BAD idea. This ended up in a food fight of course, so by the time we got there we all felt pretty grose but the riding definately made up fot it. We were the first guys on fixed to ride the tunnel, its so much bigger when you get there but so much fun.

The van ride.

That bottle does not contain water, but it is yelow and warm.

Identiti Persona Frame

This is the new Identiti persona frame that I helped design and will be riding soon.

Designed with a sloping top tube for more clearance, more room in the rear end will allow to fit up to 40c tyres, more room for bar spins, strong down tube box gusset and the unique taper-lock cnc dropouts that keep your chain tight without the need for tugs.
Looks sweet! Cant wait to give it a spin.

Knog Shop Melbourne

Whilst  home in Australia for a bit i went and visited the Knog shop in Chapel st Melbourne. Shannon showed us around and hooked me up with a cool new t-shirt and a wicked purple beetle light. He also gave Amy a pair of ‘fuck off’ gloves and a new light too!

Thanks Shannon and Knog!

LOVE THE BEAST

Just watched this film by Eric Bana about it love of his muscle car, soooo good, especially if you own a muscle car or an older model car that you just love. If you cant explain why you love it so much to others then this film will.
Watch it and you’ll understand.

Just got sponsored!

I’ve just been signed up by Identiti Bikes and Halo wheels through Ison Distribution.

I’ll be riding the new Identiti Persona frame (with which I’ve had design input) with Identiti FFX forks along with Halo Aerowarrior wheels
and Twin Rail tyres. Parts will come from sister brands – Gusset and Genetic as well as ODI for his grip needs.

I will be getting his new frame and forks in a few weeks but stopped by Identiti HQ today and had my current bike adorned with Halo, Gusset,
Genetic and ODI parts.

Some of the parts I chose are the Gusset Pigmy 853 Reynolds cranks for their strength and superlight weight, Gusset G-Wheel chainring (one piece chainring and bashguard), Gusset Badger chain and Gusset Pinhead plastic pedals (pictured).

My choice of wheels are the new Halo Aerowarrior rims 24mm wide, 25.5mm deep (pictured) laced up to Halo Track hubs and shod with Halo Twin Rail Courier Tyres.
