TGIF:
Chase Hawk:
Pool Invert

One of my favorite clips in our latest ODSY Vision (Team Retreat – Palm Springs MMXII) was Chase Hawk clicking this invert at this abandoned pool. Since it’s one of those clips you can watch over and over again without it ever getting old, it’s the perfect clip to kick off our new TGIF series.

Every Friday we’ll be dropping animated GIFs of some of our favorite clips from our videos. If you guys have any requests, let us know on in the comments or on our Twitter and Facebook pages.

Adam Banton in Brazil

Last fall Adam Banton and myself went to Brazil to hang out at the Bike Expo trade show and visit some shops. We brought our bikes but did not have much time to ride. The one town we went to that had a really fun park was Londrina and there we only had about thirty minutes until we moved on. Here is a little video of those few minutes and some scenes from Brazil. Next time we go back we are spending a day here!

AVAILABLE NOW:
Aerospace Rims

The Aerospace features an “aero”, or “V-shaped” cross-section, which creates a unique structural design. Made from 6000 series aluminum, it’s both easy to manufacture, incredibly durable and allows us to create a rim that’s strong, light and affordable. Thick inner sidewalls, and a lowered center wall section provide more room when installing or removing tires, and running brakes isn’t an issue. The Aerospace uses a traditional lacing pattern, just like the Hazard Lite, Seven K-A and Quadrant.

  • Precision welded joint
  • 6000 series aluminum
  • 34mm wide
  • 23mm tall
  • 380 ERD
  • 36-H
  • 434 grams (15.3oz)

Available now in Metallic Silver, Anodized Silver, Deep Purple and Hard Anodized Black.
