Just kidding, Ryan Fudger got loose in the GTI and took out our Fire Hydrant. You can see the hydrant on the lower right.

Various friends and team riders are on them now.

Available in December/January.

Bar ends should be simple and light. They need to protect your bars from crashes, but they also need to protect you from your bars. With this in mind we have designed our new Par Ends. A super tough, virtually solid, park friendly, plastic bar end. They’re less than an ounce per pair (0.8oz/23g) and will be offered at a very affordable price.

Formed as a single part, Par Ends fit both inside and outside your bars for a solid location. They simply expand outwards to lock into the inside of your bars without leaving any sharp edges exposed.

Par Ends are scheduled to be in shops by early 2007.

DBZ sent us this in the mail the other day.

The contents consisted of T-shirts, a VHS tape from 1995 and a few other items that were all highly appreciated by everyone here.

THANKS!
