Updated my 3D bike project with cranks and pedals.
The cranks are just a quick sketch of Odyssey Wombolts (that I currently run) and the pedals might or might not be in the works as an Eject product.
[Edit: Updated the 3D bike again. Now with new rims and spokes and nipples. “Laced” up!]
My good friend and OG Eject hub owner/user, Jesper Stern has got a bikecheck up on Childstore’s newspage which is where I also snatched the picture posted below.
Here’s the partslist:
Frame: Sunday Ian Schwartz
Fork: Odyssey Director
Bars & Grips: Animal Bob Scerbo w. Edwin grips
Stem: Fly bikes
Cranks: Odyssey Wombolt v.2

Chain: KMC z510hx
Tires: Odyssey Plytes
Front wheel: Demolition rim with Eject hub (1st edition, still holding up)
Rear wheel: Odyssey hazard rim w. hazard cassette
Hubguard: FBM
Mods: Carefully painted in white/guacamole green and birthday shouts scribbled on front tire.
Weight: 11.3 kg according to Döskallen.
Childstore, by the way, is the best BMX mailorder in Sweden and it’s run by my longtime friend and super great goodguy Johan Fahlnaes.
Here’s a little thing I’ve been playing around with lately. Over the years I have made many drawings of different parts and I just figured it could be a cool thing to put it all together into a complete bike. The frame, fork, bars, stem and front hub are already available as products. The rims, tyres and barends are just mock-ups and the rear hub plus grips are in the planning stages.
When I’m finished with this one all the parts will be 100% the same as the production parts, just that they’re in computerized form. Pretty cool, or geeky. You decide.
Ok, so a few posts back I speculated about Scotty Cranmer the machine running a Simple Eject hub in a recent video of him. Seems I was right… today a bikecheck shot at the Simpel Session turned up on FatBMX.
I have to admit that it’s nice to see my product on a high profile rider’s bike like that.
Take a close look at this videoclip.
Not only is Scotty Cranmer like a machine as usual and does tricks like it’s not even difficult… but look at the front hub. Yes I know, it’s really hard to tell, but to me it looks like an Eject hub (wishful thinking? maybe).
So, can anyone confirm or deny if there is any truth in my discovery?
