Big ups to Nico for sending me this end of LA cats getting down street dog style.

Son of Howie





The New Howie 

The new Howie looks nearly identical to the old model.  So what’s different?  

Changes: 

  • Less Weight: The new Howie with our Deep Coat finish weighs 4.8lbs / 2.18 kg.
 
  • Less Chainstays: 14.56” / 370mm
 
  • Less Cost:  $625 USD including bottom bracket.
 
  • Less Hassle: Tonic Mid 90 bottom bracket.

 

The Mid 90 is simply a BMX mid bottom bracket scaled-up for use with a mountain bike chain line. Frames will ship with this BB installed.    

The Mid 90 has some real advantages:  

  • Ease of setting up the bike with 3 piece cranks for a mountain bike chain line. The only spacer is the non-drive side bearing cap. The sprocket adaptor sits right against the drive side bearing.
 
  • Uses the same common and durable bearings as a regular Mid BB.
 
  • 90 is a very high number, so you know it’s good.
 
 

The Howie can be purchased directly through Tonic or one of our distributors. Expect the Howie to ship at the end of July.  

A deposit is a good idea if you are serious about getting on one of these frames.

I have been waiting for 5 months to have knee surgery and on Monday it finally went down! So happy that I'm recovering now and going to be able to shred again in a couple months... until then it looks like this:

I guess there is a contest going on in southern France called "FISE" but I haven't even heard about it until I checked freecaster this morning. The match videozine crew is down there, so AT and Phil Sunbawm are shredin hard to represent this continent on a pretty cool course from the looks of it.

The fuzz

Rick Nolte just hit me up with these photos of him getting written up by a cop for riding. Now most of us have been here before, but i think Rick's the only person who TRIED to get arrested by the cop. 

Quote: From Rick to 5.0

"Your a chickenshit"
"My old man was a real cop, he wouldn't write no chickenshit ticket. He'd arrest me... You chickenshit"




What up Rick

Video review

Riding films. I enjoy nothing more than just chilling out at the end of the day with a group of buddies watching a solid riding video But lately though most bike videos seem to really be a dime a dozen. I haven't really come across something in a while that really peaked my interest, until i got Vincent Allard's new film in the mail "Everywhere". The name is incredibly fitting because the video literally takes place EVERYWHERE Vincent shot and compiled footage of riders from around the world, in places like Canada, England and Russia to name a few. Everywhere, to my knowledge is one of the first really well done mountain bike videos concentrating exclusively on street dirt and park. Not since the Monkey Style videos, has something really come along that shows all the different ways that people love to shred there big bikes. Hands down, everywhere is one of the better MTB films that i have seen in a long time. Well shot, well edited, and full of seriously great riding from a really diverse group of riders all accompanied by a dope soundtrack. This is one of those films you will continuously watch over and over without tiring of it. You're stupid if you don't get your hands on this DVD asap. 

rad.

Sam Hill crash from Vallnord world cup.

This is why Sam was out of the rankings @ Vallnord. Check out the second video and look at how fast he jumped back up and on the bike after that brutal smash! I never gave the guy credit before (he has always been the equivalent to Lewis Hamilton but in the bike world to me) but he sure sucked that one up like a man.

Vimeo fix

Roc city

This frontier wall ride in Rochester, NY will go down as one of my favorite spots to ride.  I went to college in Rochester, and many a late night session went down here. 

Chris Eagan throws down on his 20 right in front of the fuzz, Chris and i have had so many crazy nights riding and drinking together. Now if a photo is worth a 1000 words, this more or less explains what shredding in the roch with the amish is like.
