“Our Socket Drive interface system has been in use on our FLATWARE CRANKS since their inception, and it was only a matter of time before the system was adapted into our THUNDERBOLT cranks. The time has come.
In a nutshell, the Socket Drive™ system is a 9 sided interface which eliminates the need for a sprocket bolt. The sprocket itself is machined so there is no need for a sprocket insert of any kind. The two work great together. The interface is solid and reliable, so we are now offer the KILLINGTON sprocket to match.

Through The Lens: How To Shoot a Bike Check Featuring Andrew Jackson
For this week I had a few things in mind that I wanted to work on but when I was out shooting the other day Andrew Jackson showed up with a freshly built set up and he wanted to try and get it shot before he really started riding it. Since we were going to be doing a bike check anyways I figured it would be cool to break down the process of shooting a bike check and how I typically go about it. Bike checks are a perfect way to show everyone out there what you are riding and it’s a great way for pros to shout out their signature parts and help promote the companies that support them. Plus, it’s a great marketing tool for companies to have their products promoted by their team riders so it’s a win-win for everyone really. Although a bike check seems really simple there are actually a few important things to know when putting one together. Read on to get a little insight into what it takes to get one done properly and practice on your own bike or your friend’s bike today.

Odyssey – Flying and Fishing with KC Badger
Odyssey recently caught up with KC Badger for some fishing, camping and BMX riding. Check out KC doing all three things that he does best in this video right here. Always good to see some new riding footage from KC.
“KC’s a fan of fly fishing so we decided to mix things up a bit for this new video. We grabbed SOME GEAR and tagged along with him on a little fishing adventure. As a bonus, we even hit up a skatepark and some fun trails along the way.
Filmed by Sam Buros.”
