Thick As Thieves

October 14, 2017

Here’s a rad one we spotted over on Focalpoint that features Bryce Ruksenas and James Gilbert getting it done down in Australia. These two spent the past six months going to work on street spots and skateparks around Perth, stacking over 6 minutes worth of real solid footage! Get on that play button and take a look at what they cooked up!

“Myself (Bryce Ruksenas) and James Gilbert have been filming this project full time for the last 6 months (besides a few clips from the previous year). The idea behind this project was to film a video showcasing how two people can interpret spots differently and also show off some of the amazing spots Perth, Western Australia has to offer. We hope you enjoy this video as much as we did filming it!

Shout out to anyone who helped us with filming and production!
You all know who you are.

GSport – High Pressure Rim Strips

October 13, 2017

You probably don’t put much thought into your rim strips, but GSport have some new ones for you…

Over the years we have seen a lot of interesting things used for rim strips from old tubes to duct tape and even cardboard. Generally when you think of a rim strip, you think of a thin piece of rubber with a hole for your spoke or some heavier duty tape. That works and that’s fine, but if you’re looking for something a little nicer, GSport have released their new High Pressure Rim Strips that was made as a high quality option for your wheels. You can pick up a set of two for $4.99 through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry GSport worldwide now.

“When you can’t even see a part, you might forget about it, but it doesn’t mean it’s not important.

Flat tires are probably the most common bicycle failures. Many times, flats are caused by the rims, specifically the lack of protection from the rims sharp edges. Good rim strips didn’t exist for BMX rims.

Our new high pressure rim strips work well and improve the function of any 20 inch rim. If you forget about them, that means they are doing their job.

Hit up your local bike shop, favorite mail order, or our online store to get a pair.” – GSport
