I literally sent Cooper over some questions about his job at Colony a second before I saw this. This is their latest print ad in Ride U.S. What a beast. Expect to find out more about Cooper soon!
Colony – Swansea Park Edit
On the drive from Melbourne to Brisbane, Colony‘s Zac Miner, Cooper Brownlee and Liam Zingbergs had a quick session at the new Swansea park before the rain shut it down. They still produced plenty of good clips for this though!

Product: Colony LTD frames
A few months back it was announced that Colony would be doing a limited edition run of frames through FBM. 50 frames to be exact. Well, a few months went by and there wasn’t any word on if they came out until today. Here’s the word on the frames from Clint.
“A while ago we released the news that we were doing some very limited edition frames made by FBM in the USA. Well, all good things come to those who wait & finally after many delays, the frames are getting close. Below is a photo of them tacked up & ready for welding. They should be available in about another 2-3 months tops but better late than never I say.
There will only be 50 frames produced & only available in Australia with some possibly available in France through Unleaded in very small numbers. Get in quick with your local dealer if you want to secure yourself one.“

Zac Miner Interview
Maybe it’s just me getting excited about the Colony video, or because it’s currently -13 degrees out and Australia is warm, but I’ve been psyched on finding more about some of the Australian guys. Zac Miner is up to bat next and this dude is wild. Zac kills it on a bike and knows how to take some money from a casino. Hell, he even marries seriously hot girls that he just met. Zac has been busy filming for a few projects, working on a signature frame, and traveling quite a bit so I figured he was ready for some questions. Check out what he has to say and some real good photos from Cooper Brownlee, and then leave him some love in the comments!

Mick Bayzand Interview
Mick Bayzand is one of the regular names popping up around the Australian scene the past few years from the Colony team. I figured with Mick’s 2nd signature Colony Teddy X Strictly collaboration in the works, recovering from a pretty wild injury, and filming at full speed for the Colony video that it was a good time for some questions. Mick came through with some real solid answers in the process of all of this. So, check out some photos and videos, then leave him some love in the comments!

Interbike 2010: Colony
I made a fairly quick pass through Colony since I couldn’t find Clint or Cooper. They have been pretty good about showing off all their new stuff on their website anyways. Always good stuff from these guys. Check it out…

On the Horizon: Colony
I don’t know why, but whenever I hear somebody talking about Australia, I usually end up thinking Colony right away. Maybe it’s just because it’s a solid brand from there, or because I really don’t know a whole lot about the place. Regardless, I do know that I’ve been curious about the workings behind the business for a while. I got a chance to shoot Clint Millar some questions about Colony to find out a little bit about what makes the brand tick these days. Give a look at what he has to say, some photos and videos, then leave some love in the comments!
