Yo… Liam Fahy-Hampton & Zac Miner are in town for the weekend to get some riding in, clock some clips & have a good time. Cooper Brownlee from Focalpoint is also in town to document the action for his next issue of the magazine.
Liam hurt his already wrecked ankles but could be good for the rest of the trip, only time will tell. Zac did some cool shit today, as always. Tomorrow we plan to hit a few more spots & Richo should be around too before his delayed knee operation due this coming Wednesday. Expect a brief web edit from the action this weekend soon.
Thanks to Cooper for the pics today.

I have been riding with Alex a fair bit lately & I thought it would be a cool thing to show you what he is riding at the moment.
We made him a custom Bloody Oath a while back & now it will soon be offered as a standard line for all those younger kids out there who want a high performance frame. The frame is a special Bloody Oath with a 19.8″ top tube & 13.5″ rear end. These frames will be available in selected countries in September.

Our latest web video is with our 12 year old ripper, Alex Hiam from Brisbane, Australia. Alex is on our flow team through Crossley Cycles & we filmed this section over the past 4 weekends.
I really like his riding because he has such a great mix of tech but check the video & make up your own mind. The best thing about Alex is his attitude towards riding. He is all about just having fun & is always smiling on & off his bike. Alex has the skills no doubt & I am looking forward to the years that lay ahead for this kid.

Unleaded in France hooked us up with Bruno Faucon to be on our flow team. Bruno kills it over there & has just built up a fresh new ride. Check out his bike check on databmx.com by clicking here now.
Thanks for the awesome support from the guys at Unleaded, databmx & Bruno himself… perhaps one day we have to organise a Colony tour in France?

Peta Shepherd just put together a 2008 MVP frame in 20.75. She wanted something a little longer than her Sect 20.5 which was actually one of the original prototypes that we ever had made.
Soon this frame along with all our 2008 frames will be available worldwide.
Thanks for everyones support out there & waiting patiently, we appreciate it.
Yo yo !!
