Iodine: all mountain

like the riders they’re designed for, the iodine product range is multi-talented. 5-7 inch travel bikes need unique components that are light enough for serious climbing, robust enough for fast, technical descents, and have the ability to last a long, long time. this is an important niche for crankbrothers; with the trails of laguna at our back door, we have our own staff to please.


THE two new Carbon T2 designs

March 16 2011 No Commented

THE’s successful range of Carbon T2 helmets gets extended with the addition of two new designs a carbon effect finish “Knight” and a “Stay Strong” branded design.

Purchasing the stay strong design contributes towards the Stay Strong cause, In the midst of doing a double back-flip, Stephen Murray crashed while competing in the BMX Dirt Finals at the Dew Actions Sports Tour, in Baltimore, Maryland. It was quoted as being “one of the worst crashes seen in bmx” one that would ultimately be career ending, for this incredibility talented, 27 year old athlete. Stephen Murray’s brand STAY STRONG was set up to give him a creative outlet, and providing a source of income for his family in the coming years as he fights to recover from his injuries. What started as a simple tee shirt and charity bracelet has slowly developed into a more complete range and more importantly a positive life message. Thank you for following our story so far and we hope you continue on this journey with us and remember whatever obstacles life throws in your path STAY STRONG.

THE’s T2 Range is their flagship design, weighing in at roughly the 1kg mark, the technologically advanced helmet is lightweight and super strong. The super stylish T2 has a reduced silhouette, semi-integrated visor, 17 cooling vents and comes with an extra colour-matched visor and Helmet Bag.

When a Handjob won’t do and picking up a STD is out of the question, it’s time to take another look at the G-Spot. For 2010, Cove completely redesigned the venerable G-Spot from the loam up.

The biggest change for the G-Spot is the suspension design. Gone is the rocker arm linkage with pivots on the seat stays and around the bottom bracket, in favour of the same floating pivot point suspension design as its big brother, the Shocker. So, how does this new version of a Shore classic ride? Good question… (more…)
