MTBCUT.tv Stu and Cathro taking a piss!

The title may sound dirty but they are British and taking a piss -AKA messing around- and posting it up for all to see is okay in the UK!

They say it is the shittiest video ever made by them but I actually think it is the best yet, more fun, less portrayal of being Number 1!


We decked their bikes in pedals and stems in a custom colour for cool kids only and soon we must make up a new scheme.

Next season I think we will make the pink brighter and lessen up the black, regardless they will be one off’s for MTBCUT only!

The gear was to compliment the bikes in the video below. In your face Pink.

Ben Cathro's Orange 225 - 50mm fixed stem.

You can see it better on this Pinkbike Video where Ben Cathro goes over his ride

“Ben Cathro is part of the MTB Cut DH team and is the only racer on the World Cup Circuit that is 7 feet tall. Ok maybe he's not 7 feet tall, but damn he's a giant. Ben is here with fellow team mate Joe Barnes and is sporting the all new prototype Orange 225 bike.”

Team MTBCUT riding the new Red Route!

Stu over at MTBCUT.tv sent us this web edit of Ben Cartho, Joe Barnes and Chris Hutchens riding the new red route at Fort William last week.

 

Stu mentioned…

“It ended up as a nice little video of them playing on the new track. Incidentally after filming this Ben and Joe went on to finish 1st and 2nd in Elite at the British NPS round on the weekend.”

 

Team MTBCUT is kitted in custom Straitline boxxer stems platform pedals in a one off x-ray pink/black  just for them!

Full story up on Pinkbike HERE

 

Stu took the time out of his hectic schedule to edit up some of our CNC footage for the Fort William World Cup big screen!  We will be showing more of our facility as the trade show season nears!

Short and sweet!

DJ's close call- moto crash!

Here is DJ one of the owners/ designers here at Straitline looking cool pulling high speed wheelies.




Now here is DJ not looking so cool in a slow speed wheelie!

3 inches from taking out the ladies car behind the shop. Look at his recovery, makes it look so simple.

We were focused on making tech videos then someone starts up a bike and we get distracted but take a look at our Laser etching a quick logo.



Side Note new 50 boxxer stem has finally been finished design etching wise here is the finished look

New bolts shave 8 grams off the final weight making it 139.8/140 grams!

PaintHouse Helmet!

Not much to say on this... pretty stoked.


Too cocky? Good!

Thanks to Stacy at PaintHouse Customs for squeezing me ahead of the shady characters over at Decline Magazine!

I let Stacy do what ever the hell he wanted on my helmet, I gave him just a few likes and dislikes but this is his creation, here's what I guessed he would do!

Check out this link to Pinkbike and see his other helmets just released

Team MTBCUT.tv custom gear


Yes I suck at taking photos but I bet you do too!



"We're gonna be running some custom stems, pedals, and a few other trick bits courtesy of Straitline which is awesome. However, I didn't realise quite how awesome this would be until Greg from Straitline sent me through this video.... check it out... we're stoked!!"

Some welcomed Ego stroking from Stu over at MTBCUT.tv! even I never realised how cool they looked until in hand, the xray mixed with the fiery red/ pink is sick and custom just for their upcoming DH team!



So keep your eyes peeled on MTBCUT.tv's site, this is just the teaser.
