Product update – Clone Hub Guard
Our Clone Hub Guards are finalised after testing & will be available in September this year. Below is the final version that will be available. It is designed so that it replaces the non-drive side cone nut on the hub, eliminating the need to spread the rear end on your frame to fit it all in. They will fit our hubs only though. Full details will be released closer to September.

Product update – Sweet Tooth frame
Alex Hiam loves sugar. So it’s fitting that he named his own signature frame the Sweet Tooth.

It will be available from early September this year. More info will be released in the weeks ahead.
In case you missed it check Alex’s web vid from last year. We’re working on a new one right now as well. So stay tuned.

Happy Birthday Guettler !!
It’s Ryan’s 26th birthday today. It’s crazy how time goes by so fast. Seems like not that long ago that he was only 7 years old. I have known Ryan since he was that age & have so many cool memories during this time. It’s so good to see him follow his dreams & make something really special out of his riding. Don’t kill me for posting these pics here… thanks for everything mate & enjoy your day !!

Nice Saturday ride…
Had a fun day of riding yesterday, first met up with Alex & Peta & then headed down to Matt King’s new backyard ramp to have a roll with him & Toby. The session got cut short with some showers so we headed north to Beenleigh for some dry weather. It was a good chilled session & I snapped this pic of Alex with a picture perfect Beenleigh sunset in the background. Gotta love BMX.

Paddy Gross checks in…
Paddy informed me that he can’t make it to the worlds this weekend in Cologne but he will be in Mexico for some demos. Last time the worlds were in Cologne was back in 2004 & Paddy won the Mini Ramp title then. It’s a shame that he can’t be back there. I wish I was also over there this weekend but it’s not meant to be. Cologne is always such a great time.
In the meantime, Paddy sent in a pic from a session on german legend, Axel Reichertz backyard ramp & of a demo Paddy did jumping a car. Word.
