Ribcage

On your marks. Get set. GO!

The other ribcages have finally landed.
Chrome 48s have now been joined by the hard anodised black and natural options in 48 AND 36 hole drilling, and to complete the range the chrome 36’s are hiding in there too. So whatever your ribcage desires, they can now be fullfilled!

Shipping out to distributors and the more discerning shops in the next week or so.

The “Natural” option is kind of a greenish grey hard anodising but is a strictly limited edition, just as hard and long lasting as the black, but a different colour!
When they are gone they are gone so don’t come crying to me if you leave it too late. Order them now to avoid disappointment.

But dont neglect the black and chrome either, they have feelings too you know! Best buy two of each to be safe….

ELEMENTARY V2 (Part 1)

The Elementary Stem has been out for well over a year now, and with thousands more people running it we thought it was worth checking to see if there was room to make it even better. The few warrantied stems we have had back have shown that the only thing that could really cause a problem was if the stem was being run with the bolt a little too loose. Through analysis testing we’ve found that running the stem this way can impede the wedge’s ability to transmit torsional loads properly. This in turn has resulted in a very small number of stems where the U-frame has been damaged or twisted slightly, and a replacement has been needed (and happily provided, obviously). Because this situation is so rare, we probably could have let this slide or maybe just updated the instructions to encourage people to be more aware of the bolt’s tightness; however, we instead realized that there was a simple way to eliminate this problem and improve the torsional strength of the stem without adding any weight…Groovy wedges!

So the new Elementaries that will begin shipping within the next two weeks will have these little grooves in the center wedges that interlock with corresponding ribs on the front and back wedges. We found this increases the torsional strength enormously, even when slightly loose. This improvement also helps to keep the wedges aligned more evenly during installation, which can help to provide for a better overall assembly.

Note: The first shipment of V2 stems will be black without tabs, with the other versions to follow soon.

SWEET RIDE.

Luke Wallis was so psyched on his new DIGITAL CAMO kit, that he sent photos of his ride. Check it.

LIMITED EDITION NATURAL RIMS

A little while ago we received samples for a HARD ANODIZE NATURAL colored rim, which turned out to be pretty nice and everyone around here was psyched.

So, needless to say, we will be doing a limited run of these bad boys on Odyssey Hazard Lite rims. This NATURAL finish will be the equivalent of the durable HARD ANODIZE BLACK that we offer on all of our rims. Colored rims will be the new craze, so this is a good way to get in on it.

We should be receiving these HARD ANODIZE NATURAL rims early next month.

Ask your favorite shop or mailorder.

Pretty Colours !!!

What happens if you take the world’s cutest front hub and anodise it a pretty colour? This….

These Marmosets should be available as a limited edition run sometime around the middle of next month. We call the colours “catamenia-berry” and “steelium-bolloxide”….. Actually no. We just call them Red and Grey, and we suggest you do too….

Go to France!

M7 Wheel in Shops

I am pretty excited because after 12 years the first wheel incorporating a G-Sport hub is finally in shops.

The M7 wheel is a stock front wheel, built to the highest possible standards. Based around the legendary Marmoset 36 hole front hub, into a proven Odyssey 7ka rim with Odyssey’s new top quality spokes.

Now you can get the same wheel that most of the Odyssey team use and love from any bike shop without the wait for a custom wheel build. You can also be sure that thanks to the custom box it will arrive safe and sound and will have used less of the world’s resources to get there.

Sunny California

Matt came out to California to escape the last of Utah winter, and caught the last of our “winter”. 75 degrees in the parking lot. Sun burned as hell. weird.

He is clearing that boulder, by the way.

If he could get that rear ski to stop flipping back, he would have pulled this first try, every try. To the pedals whip. Back to the drawing board.

This would be sweet.

Rams. There were like 20, but the camera died after this pic, and then I almost fell in the river. That would have sucked if I fell in, and Matt had no batteries.
