Wethepeople and Suelo make flatland forks. Here are four of them. The pink one is the Suelo, the others are from wethepeople. How hard is it for a shop to stock these things? Some flatland riders ride brakeless so they don't need brake lugs on their forks. Who wants pink forks? Who wants brown? Zero rake is in demand but 18 mm offset is steep enough for some. 
This pedal took 2 years of developing. If you read the full description on the FlyBikes website, you get an idea of what goes into a goddamn pedal. Everything needs to work before it hits mass production and if you put your name on it (in this case Ruben Alcantara), you want it to be perfect. The pedal is strong (6061 aluminium) comes with 3.5 mm pins and griptape in the middle for extra traction. The box comes with extra tape and a set of 2.5 mm pins that you can mount with a 3mm allen key. If you do snap an axle, you can get the remaining part out from the inside with a 6 mm allen key. At 440 grams the pedals are pretty damn light and that's what matters these days. Help [url=http://www.paulsboutique.nl]Paul's Boutique[/url] get rid of some.BdJ
Unless you're a beach bum living in a warm place all year long you will need socks. What's better than a fresh pair? Vans have got three types to choose from. The DogTown skaters can go for the tube socks (far right). These socks that go up till your knee also work in your snowboard boots. For sunny conditions the classic Kick socks will do the job. You can get sunburn on your ankles this way too. The crew socks (grey in the photo) will work for any condition. 
Didn't we laugh at Jay Miron's green spokes at that contest at Moreno Valley 10 years ago? Well, I did. It has taken a while but the trend is finally here. Primo jumped on it and came out with coloured spokes. You can choose from Red, Blue, White and Yellow. Spokes are not really a part that you can just bolt on. It takes some patience and skills to lace up a wheel. Why not give it a try now that it's cold and wet outside. This is the time to do it, spin that spokewrench! Once you get the hang of it, it's actually a good challenge and you will be able to get that kink out of your wheel next time you have a nasty hang-up.

dR’s luggage made it in time this weekend so he was suited up and ready to go for Pro practice Friday evening. There were a lot of crashes this weekend in the Pro ranks taking out Jason Richardson, Bubba Harris, Mike Moeller and Danny Caluag to name a few. BUT, for the first weekend in a while, dR wasn’t one of them and stayed on his bike, and when that happens, you know Donny will definitely be found on the podium.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
