Product: Profile Racing – Limited Edition Matte Desert Camo Colorway

November 10, 2014

We don’t see a ton of changes with the product line from Profile Racing because they’re pretty consistent on sticking with what works! But, every few months, we do get to see a new limited edition colorway from them that is always ends up real good. This time around, they have released a very limited run of these Zach Rogers inspired matte Desert Camo Mini and Elite hubs, Push stems and Spline Drive and Galaxy sprockets that are are available now! We figured with only 50 sets of hubs total and 10 of each of the stems and sprockets available, these are going to go quick so we should take a look before they’re all gone, right? Let’s check this out!

Eclat – Shane Weston Blind Hub Promo

November 10, 2014

Éclat ‘Blind Hub’ Promo Feat. Shane Weston from WeMakeThings on Vimeo.

The long awaited, highly anticipated, almost eliminated Shane Weston signature Blind hub from Eclat is finally here… This hub, almost a holy grail of sorts, has been in the works for a number of years now and has seen a lot of ups and downs, countless design changes and hours on top of hours of testing to ensure it was done right, is finally available. This hub is capable of converting from left and right side drive along with from a freecoaster to a cassette, essentially making it 4 hubs in one. Check out Shane Weston putting it through its paces, stacking some incredible clips along the way. You can find out more about the hub right here.

“To travel backwards on a BMX without pedaling is nothing new, it’s something that was active very early on in the boom of BMX street riding. The potential of riding with a free coaster though has evolved drastically with time and now we’re at a pretty exciting point where going backwards seems almost like going forwards.
Shane Weston was always influenced by riders before him that forged the way for free coasting and has been on the free coaster game for some time now, mixing complex hop variations with jump box tricks to create this original and mind blowing style, a true pleasure to watch. After a long time in testing and development we are happy to announce the Shane Weston Signature Free Coaster hub from Éclat ‘The Blind’. Unlike other free coasters out there this one is designed for the modern street rider that can be flipped from RSD to LSD and even switched back to a coaster. It’s pretty much the only hub you’ll ever need.”
