Kelowna Bike Park

Yesterday I went over to our new yet unfinished bike park to ride for a little bit and shoot with my friend Mike Kirk. Here are some shots.......

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!

 

 

Check out the massive scrub to hip hematoma half way through…ouch!

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!

Alan Hepburn busting trixs with Chris Sonoinen!

Sweet little video sent in from Alan adn Chris, as we enter winter they enter Spring in Australia so lots of stuff to come. Alan is rocking our new 35 mm Pinch clamp Stem in Ti Grey, and Green grippy as hell JLO pedals.


Check out Alan's MySpace for more vids and be sure to scroll his photo album!

Tech tips for 08 pedals and 06/07

Here are the 08 Flanged Polymer bushings...

08 Internal Parts Breakdown...

And here is a simplistic video showing a build up part by part...

The secret behind our pedals... self lubricating polymer bushings. Ain't nothing new by any means, they have been used and proven in all heavy duty industries.
These bushings are out from 06/07


This is my 07 pedal torn apart and in a diagram. I flipped the image in paint to match the 08 layout.

And here is a simplistic tear down build up of a 06/07 pedal...



We built this pedal to take a beating and be easily fixed and maintained. We aren't too into re-inventing the wheel. These pedals are as simple as simple can get. If sealed bearings were what they claimed then why do most excavators and farm vehicles do without in their tracks?
