Game of BIKE – Billy Perry VS Austin Augie VS Anthony Panza

March 23, 2017

Billy Perry just dropped this new video from a Game of BIKE that he played against Austin Augie and Anthony Panza at the Mastic park out East. As you can imagine with these three, they had a real good time and ended up laying down some real good riding. Going into this, it’s hard to guess just who would be taking the win. Hit play and find out what went down and who is currently holding the title!

“Panza, Augie and myself finally decided to VS each other in this highly anticipated 3 person Game of BIKE. We were riding Mastic skatepark and It was definitely hard to ride to our full potential due to the frigid temperatures, little kids on scooters and a quickly setting sun. We are going to continue this series in different parks in the future.”

Odyssey BMX – Twisted Pro Pedals

March 23, 2017

Let’s take a closer look at the new Twisted Pro Pedals from Odyssey!

Here’s some news we’ve been waiting to see since our first look during our trip to Frostbike back in February. Odyssey have released their new Twisted Pro Pedals! The original Twisted PC Pedals haven’t really had any changes since their inception in 1997, beyond the countless color options. Not too many products have been around for this long without any major changes, which is a good indicator that they work well. With riders looking for slightly bigger pedals these days, Odyssey decided it was time to offer a modernized version of the pedals to accommodate for some of the needs of riders in 2017.

The Twisted Pro Pedals are still made from the same high strength plastic composite with the same look as the original, loose ball bearings and a chromoly spindle, but feature a larger body with a 104mm width and 98mm length. The original Twisted PC pedals have a 98mm width and 89mm length. This increase gives you more room for your feet and an increased concave for more grip, along with a slimmer profile. The Twisted Pro pedals feature 12 oversized molded pins per side versus 16 on the originals, but the increased size and concave helps reduce the need for as many pins.

The Twisted Pro pedals are available in black — Odyssey will be adding colors into the mix soon — and weigh in at 14.6 oz. These pedals are available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Odyssey worldwide starting now.

Don’t worry! The Original Twisted PC Pedals will still be available and continue to be manufactured well into the future.

The Twisted Pro pedals are slightly slimmer than the originals. Lean and clean. These are still made from the same high strength composite as well.

Here is a side by side comparison giving you a look at the differences between the original Twisted PC and the new Twisted Pro pedals when it comes to size.

Fit Bike Co. – Eddie Cleveland Grip Re-Issue

March 22, 2017

Either Fit Bike Co. stumbled across a box of old Eddie Cleveland grips that got tucked away, or they felt a little nostalgic and decided to bringing back a classic. Either way, Fit have a limited edition re-issue of Eddie Cleveland’s signature Eddie grip available now. These grips are made right here in the U.S.A by ODI with a super soft rubber compound. The grips are 135mm long and have a thinner 28mm diameter that we don’t see on too many BMX grips these days. The grips feature a knurling style grip pattern with the Fit Key Logo and come with nylon plug style bar ends.

The Eddie grips are available in black only for $9.99 each. You will want to hit up the Fit Bike Co. webstore to pick up a pair before they’re gone. Since Fit decided to do a re-issue, we’ve re-upped a few videos to remind you how much ass Eddie used to kick on a bike.
