We have now launched a retail online store where you can buy all our products except our complete bikes. With the age of the internet & the online store well upon us all, it was time we moved with the times & offered such a service ourselves.

We would still recommend that you buy from your local BMX shop if you have one in your area but use this retail online store (or any online store for that matter) when you do not have such a luxury of a local store near you.

This store will also serve as place where riders in countries that may not have Colony distribution can get our products easily as we will send to anywhere in the world. We will also from time to time, release special limited edition items on here that will only be available directly from us as well.

You can get to our retail online store by clicking the button to the right hand side of the site.

Our 2012 complete bikes will be out in early October around the planet. There will be the ever popular Endeavour & Descendant in fresh new colour ways. We will also have for the first time, the all new Inception, which is like a more affordable Sweet Tooth style bike for the smaller riders.

We will also Ryan Guettler’s first signature complete bike with us called, The Living. At the top of the range will be the very limited edition Teddy Pro, Sweet Tooth Pro & the all new Miner Pro. These pro bikes are in very limited numbers with less than 10 of each model made for the world. Expect all these 2012 bikes out in early October.

The guys at Strictly BMX however have a very limited run of only one bike each on the above models. With the exception of the Miner Pro, who the guys at Backbone BMX have since Zac rides for them as his shop sponno. So act fast & get in touch with the guys at Strictly or Backbone & be the first to have the 2012 bikes now.

For those in the Brisbane area, it’s pretty obvious that the Core Series Final set for today at Morayfield is cancelled due to bad weather. The weather isn’t quite as bad as the pic below from the floods here earlier this year. Then, the park was completely flooded. Keep an eye here for news on a new date if it will be rescheduled.

Ryan Guettler recently went to France for a dirt comp & he is there for a couple more weeks yet. Here is what he had so say…

Jet lagg could be one of the worst things to go through!! When every one is sleeping your wide awake looking at the clock watching the mins tick by and when every one is fresh and ready to ride your trying to hold your eyes open sucks so bad!!

Me and Jaie Toohey have been in south of france for 5 days now on our 2.5 week trip. Its been fun and we have meet up with alot of other riders, we are sharing a house with Cam white, Josh stead and Danny Jose (Hungry Monster rider) Staying in the house feels like when I had to stay at my grand mothers place no TV, no internet but we play lots of ping pong out side every night. Me and Jaie go to Mcdonalds for the wifi which is so slow, its been 30 mins so far on uploading theses pics and it may not happen i hope you guys get them.

I bought my video camera and have been filming every thing we get up to so look out for a video when i get home.

Yesterday was the Lords of Dirt comp. Very BIG jumps and huge roll in the pics do not show how big theses thing are. 9 foot lips and 15 foot landings. I came from dew tour very sore and a bad knee which needs rest but competed and just missed the finals, I had a rough time pumping the sets with a bad knee so gaining speed was so hard.

Josh stead rode well and did the run of the day ending with a double flip but it was 2 runs count so he ended up in 6th
Cam White rode solid and even flip superman seat grabbed the 2nd jump over 30 ft long and ended with 2nd place
Jaie Toohey killed the event every run was a winning run. He rode faster and higher then the rest and won the comp and placed 2nd in the best trick with a 360 triple whip!! Jaie looked at home on theses massive jumps the nitro circus really paid off.

This week we are doing Monster demos in the down town area then on the weekend is The VANS kill the line. Which is a comp in the woods with big jumps again I am really looking forward to this comp.
