Colony – Jack Kelly Weclome to the Pro Team

October 14, 2014

If you haven’t taken notice of Jack Kelly by now… You’re completely blowing it! Jack has been on fire for a while now, but this new one welcoming him to the Colony pro team is insane! Hit play!

“This video has been in the works for quite some time which we think you can tell that from the finished product. Jack absolutely killed it and we wanted to tie in the video release with the news of welcoming him to the pro team. So here it is, enjoy!

“Filmed over the past year around Australia and the USA. Alex Hiam goes in for his latest video, all came to a halt when he broke his wrist earlier this year but he had a good chunk of clips to work with and this is the end result.

Colony dropped some info on Brandon Van Dulken’s new signature Roaster bars for you guys. These fully post-weld heat-treated 4130 chromoly bars have a unique multi-butted tubing Colony designed specifically for these bars to make them extra thick at the grip bend by the cross bar to help resist bending and given the crossbar a larger diameter and higher placement for even more strength. The Roaster bars have an 8.75″ rise, 29″ width, 10.5-degrees of backsweep, 2-degrees of upsweep and will come in colors of gloss black and chrome. Weight is yet to be announced. Expect more details on their release.

Ryan Guettler Leaves Colony and Joins Hyper / Snafu

September 6, 2014

Here’s some news that left us saying “No way!” as soon as we saw it…. It turns out that after nearly 10 years on Colony, Ryan Guettler has decided to leave the team to pursue a spot on the team and be the brand manager for Hyper and Snafu that Matt Bischoff left open a little while back. This is definitely an unexpected move. Here’s some more about the news below…

“I didn’t think I would ever be writing this here but Ryan Guettler is no longer riding for Colony as of today.

He has decided to leave the team, to take a job as a brand manager / pro rider at Hyper & Snafu. I know Ryan has wanted a job within the industry for a while now & I personally wish him all the best in this new chapter in his life.

Ryan has been with Colony since our inception in 2005, he was the first rider I chose as a team rider back then. More importantly, I have known & ridden with Ryan since he was just 7 years old. It has been a fun ride the last 24 years & I am sure there will be many more sessions to come. I do thank you Ryan for your efforts with Colony over the years, it is appreciated. Let the good times roll ahead !! I wish you all the best mate!” – Clint Millar

“What ever I write will not show my appreciation and gratefulness I have for Clint Millar and the family I have over at Colony. All the road trips and good times with the team will be my memories for life. Nothing will change our friendship or the the way I think of the guys over at Colony but this next step is a must for me to take. My career is sunsetting and I’ve always wanted to learn the business side of things. I’ve been through all the ups and downs with in BMX over the past 20 years of my career, my knowledge will help Hyper and Snafu. This would not have been an option with out Clint guiding me along the way. He is a best friend and the god of front brakes, I wish Clint nothing but the best. To all the riders at Colony keep it rubber side down and I’ll miss you guys.” – Ryan Guettler
