Final Colony Wed Vid

Image
Click here for the final Colony BMX Bikes web video featuring Liam Fahy-Hampton, Mick Bayzand, Matt King & Kenny Raggett. Pretty sure some of Liam and Mick's clips are from Clocked In , but with bangers like that I don't mind watching them again. -Mitch

Trails video

My boys Mitch and Dean Brown along with some others have been digging these trails for a while now and have put so much hard work into them. I'd been to check them out a few times but this was the first time I'd been there that they've been ridden. This is the first of hopefully many videos to come out of that place and I know they've got big plans for them in the near future. -Mitch

You decide.

Image
Ok. This seems to be a topic that is polarizing alot of people. Would you rather see more videos on Diversity (like how it is at the moment) or would you rather me filter them a bit more so only top notch videos make it on? I already filter the videos I put on as it is but would it be better if I was a bit stricter with what gets posted? Let me know what you think in the comments and in the poll. -Mitch

Jeffrey Bahr sent in this cool vid of himself riding street and park. Some pretty dialled maneuvers in this one. -Mitch

Tempered news.

Image
Just got some good news from Matt about Tempered: "Temperedbikes just picked up its first distributor outside of Australia! Martin from RideIt in Latvia contacted me a few months ago about acting as our Europe distro, After a few hard months of swapping emails and sorting out a lot of shit that I never thought would come in the way! Their first shipment of frames will be arriving mid to late April. RideIt breaches out all over Europe including the United Kingdom, Germany and Czech Republic. I'm glad to know that Tempered is in good hands in Europe!" Great news. Tempered's blowin up! Tempered Treason frames. More info HERE. -Mitch

Parting Ways

Image
After working together for the last year or so Matty and I have decided to part ways and branch out into different directions. I've recently made the hard decision to leave Tempered and focus on Diversity and Matty will now be putting all his energy into Tempered. The Tempered brand has grown so much over the last few years and I would like to believe that I was a part of that, just as Matty has been an integral part in the success of Diversity. I wish Matty and Tempered all the best in the future and I'll still continue to support Tempered 100%. Support the Aussie bmx scene! -Mitch

Spotted these over on the Colony site. Some gnarly looking plastic pedals that are going to incorporate metal pedal pins. Expected to be available in August this year. I ran some Odyssey plastics for 2 days and they ended up looking like bars of soap, can't wait to try these bad boys out. -Mitch

Zac Graham sent me through this video of Dylan White riding Redcliffe skatepark. Some nice riding in there. Also, apologies for the lack of posts over the last few days, work/uni has been a bit hectic so I haven't had a chance.
