October 4, 2011

I definitely enjoyed this one. Funny intro and some damn good style.

“We are very proud to welcome Daniel “Ralle” Juchatz, one true style cat from Berlin, on board the Mankind Bike Company team. Ralle has made his mark on the international BMX scene via video parts and contest appearances with his amazing style and humble layback attitude. He introduced himself to the BMX world with his talent at the Rebel Jam 2010, placing first place in the dirt style award. The Berlin local is happy to join the Mankind crew and to push his passion to the next level. WELCOME TO THE TEAM!!!

Product: Odyssey Race Linear Slick Kables

October 4, 2011

“Our new Race Linear Slic Kables(®) are available now in Black, Red, Blue and White.

What makes these a “Race” Linear Kable?

Well, we’ve taken our proven Linear Slic Kable(®) housing and replaced the steel linear wire with aluminum. Utilizing the aluminum wire in the housing saves you significant weight, roughly 37%. This cable also features our specially designed “volcano” ferrules that we’ve used since 2008 to prevent housing blowouts. This Kable also comes with color-coated inner wires and ball ends to differentiate between our regular Linear’s.

Race Linear Slic Kable(®)- 2 oz
Regular Linear Slic Kable(®) – 3.2 oz.

MSRP – $14.99

This cable is race ready!” – Odyssey

This is hilarious and awesome.

“It’s pretty logical to ride a skatepark with a bmx, a skateboard or rollerblades but Boulon is a special guy from Marseille In France who rides the legendary bowl of Marseille with his Vespa. everyone who got the chance to see Boulon riding the bowl is stocked and doens’t understand how to ride with a vespa.

Enjoy this video cause his riding is really original 🙂
