Colony No Longer Making Flatland Products
It looks like Colony has decided to discontinue its flatland program. Here’s some words about it from Clint Millar about the decision.
“Way back in 1988 when I started riding, I primarily rode flatland. I was however one of the few riders that rode flatland & also did ramp, street & dirt back then. Given my links to flatland back in the day, it was natural that I wanted to do a flatland range within Colony as a company. Especially when good friends of mine Shane Badman & Simon O’Brien were without support at the time it made perfect sense to help them out.
Over the years we have supported flatland as much as we can. It’s no secret that the flatland market is a small one indeed. Through our strong position within BMX as a whole we have been able to support this for some time but at some point we needed the flatland program to support itself. Unfortunately this has not been the case & after much deliberation & sadness we have had to pull the plug on our flatland program.
We will still support Shane, Simon & Shintaro as much as possible with our products but we will no longer be making any new flatland products moving forward.
The guys at Flatland Fuel still have some stocks while they last so if there is something you want before it’s all gone, I would at fast.
I would like to take this time to thank everyone for their support throughout the years, we’ve had some of the best riders on the planet ride some of our products & that is amazing to think about. So thanks for the good times & may the they continue into the future. You never know… we may bring out some very, very limited edition flatland products from time to time.” – Colony
Mick Bayzand Video Bike Check

This is the 20th edition of Products:. Crazy to think that it has been going on for 20 weeks already. This week we’re going to take a closer look at the Diamondback Forum complete bike, The Shadow Conspiracy‘s Ravager pedals, Zac Miner’s 2013 Miner frame from Colony, Tree Bicycle Co.‘s 4130 HT spline drive sprocket and the Madera Unity front load stem. Let’s get into this!
Reminder: Colony in the U.K
Don’t forget that the Colony team will be invading the U.K starting tomorrow and will start hitting shops all over the place starting on Friday. Above is a list of all the shops they will be visiting. If you are in the area, I highly suggest you get to at least one of these stops.
