Read on below for what Tom Stretton has been up too…

Hey guys just letting you all know what I’ve been up to.

Lately I’ve been working a bunch and riding when I can. Loving it so much down here in Melbourne. Everyone is sweet and I’m having the best time.

Last weekend I went to the Eat Children Crew DIY spot, jam. It was a blast. The Adelaide crew is seriously one of the sickest scenes around and I thank them so much for their hospitality and hard work on that ghetto set up. #fuckmurraybridgecouncil

This weekend there was Sam Tormey’s jam out at Morwell. Sam is a young local down here who has been battling a rare type of Bone Cancer. It’s such a shit thing but it was great to see all the riders that came out and showed support. It was also great to see you and say g’day Sam. Hope you had a ripper day brother. f#ckcancer

Also, I just got a new frame in the mail and I’d like to thank boss man Millar as always. I continued by taking paint stripper to it immediately and then to the rest of my bike hahaha. I love it. Let me know what you guys think.

Peace

Josh Dove is one of our up and coming young rippers on flow in Australia & he kills it. He has been riding heaps of late with Chris Courtenay & making everything look way too easy on his 2015 Sweet Tooth 18″ bike. Keep an eye out for Josh, as his passion for BMX is strong. Expect to see a lot more of him in the years to come.

Looking forward to the next one already. Check out some of my pics taken a long the way. Thanks to Dave, Phil, Jonno, Mario, Bruce & Kenny for an awesome week. Good times !! – Millar.

With the huge success & popularity of our Colony Wasp Cassette Hubs we wanted to offer something to make them even better again.

We’ve had Chris Courtenay test these for over 6 months now & have stood the test of time. We’re proud to offer those who want a further weight saving the choice of a 7075T6 Alloy driver for our Wasp Hubs. Alex Hiam & others on the team all now swear by these drivers.

With half the weight of a CrMo driver & no extra cost (unlike Titanium) these alloy drivers are a great way to save some weight & dollars at the same time. They even make the hubs sound even better if that’s your thing?

Check them out now & available at selected dealers worldwide now.
