Mike Aitken, Trista, Baby Owen and Rob-O stopped by Odyssey today to say what’s up. We all tremendously enjoyed seeing Mike, and it’s great to see him up and about. We chatted for a bit before they had to take care of other stuff, and it was all good.

Sometimes life works in mysterious ways….
A while back when 50/50 was accepting donations to benefit Mike Aitken, we had offered up our 2008 Interbike show bike (Gold Zinc S&M L.T.F. w/ Odyssey Purple Rain parts kit) as an added bonus for people to donate. Donate 10 bucks, you might win a bike that’s worth over a $1,000.00. Simple.
As time went on, people graciously donated and names were accumulated. 50/50 then gave us a list of all those names for us to pick a winner…
From there, we entered all the names into the random number generator once for every $10 that was donated. So, if you donated 30 bucks, your name was entered 3 times, and so on…
So, low and behold, John “Superfly” Skvarla ended up being the winner. I couldn’t believe it. This is crazy because I basically grew up riding with Supes, and this would totally look shady. However, it is not, and Supes won the bike fair and square, as shown in the picture above.
Congrats to Supes, and everyone who donated so generously to Mike. Over $50,000.00 was raised for Aitken.
I hit up the annual Frostbike show at QBP this weekend, which I love going to.
It seemed like a quick trip, but as always, a bunch of cool riders and shop people from all over the states came by to show some love and talk BMX. It was good to hear everyone’s feedback on a bunch of different stuff, as well as overdose on energy bar samples. So, THANKS to everyone who came through.
I shot a handful of pics throughout the weekend with the iPhone, and uploaded them to our Flickr page as I went. You can check those out HERE.
Until next year….
The Rollcage rims are now back in stock, and we also have brand new 48H available for those that have been requesting them.
Both 36 & 48 Hole Rollcage rims are available in Chrome or Hard Anodize Black.
Contact your local shop for more info.
People have been asking what colors each of the Glow PC colors actually glow, so I made the above image so you can see what’s what. It’s a combination of the non-glowing pedals, and the glowing version.
You can click on the picture to see it bigger.
Available now.
So… I was browsing the Strictly Fitteds website like I do a few times a months, and I came across our “Driver” hat that we are doing with Estate LA. This caught me off guard (in a good way).
The photo in the post was one that I took with my iPhone and had uploaded to Defgrip via the Defgrip Flickr page, so this is not really an official release photo, but its still all good.
More info on the new hats and better pics soon.
Spotted this bike with the new Tanwall tires over on bikeguide. Looking good!!!
Standard and Foldable Tanwalls are available now.
Matt Beringer has a rad feature on Ride BMX where he gives you the story behind some photos.
Matt’s got a great part in the new S&M video, and that clip in the 50/50 video where over shoots his shed makes me laugh.
Matt rules!!
Ever since we posted the “Custom” Chase Hawk wheels the other day, I have been getting calls/emails from people trying to order them as a stock option, which does not exist. Jim Bauer custom built them for Chase.
We know they look rad, but if you wish to run the “Chase Hawk” wheels, you will need to purchase the Hard Anodize Red Hazard lite rims, Red Vandero 2 hub and Red Odyssey after market spokes and have that hotness built up. All of which is available now.
Once you do, you will be stylin!!!!
