Over just the past couple of days these three edits of Simple’s Eduards Zunda popped up. The first two are alternate edits of pretty much the same spots and tricks. But Eduards wasn’t happy with the first one so he re-filmed much of it to put in the “official” edit. Take one: Eduards Zunda /// Simple Bike [...]

New edit from one of Simple Bikes teamriders, Eduards Zunda. Kid’s got skills and good style. I like.

I just saw these two cool looking custom completes built around Simple frames. These two bikes are available from Hell On Wheels in Sydney. I spotted (and snagged) the photos from their blog. The white and black one looks Ace!

A couple of days ago I received a nice little package of things to be tested. It’s the new “Symmetric stem” and the yet to be named cassette hub from Simple Bikes. The stem is short (49mm reach) and works about the same as the previous frontload stem, the “System”. It’s got an internal wedge/piston that [...]

…what a disappointment! Interbike is over. I’ve been scanning bmx news sites and forums for interesting new parts and products from other brands then the one(s) I’m involved with. But there was seriously nothing new or really cool. Unless you think 20+ new pivotal seat graphics (on the same seat shape), or new limited edition colorways [...]

Decided to do a little writeup on the specs of the 2009 Simple frames, the Ace, Enigma and Weaver. I think it’s a shame that many companies don’t write a full list of specs that have some kind of “standard” so that the specs can be compared to the specs of other frames. BB height [...]

Simple Bikes teamrider Frank Coggins has come through with a little web edit of the riding at the Roskilde music festival. The filming is a bit sketchy, but if you’re familiar with that festival you know that beer is always at hand. Quoting Niels newspost over at the Simple site: “Quite impressive filming taken into consideration [...]

Yesterday at work I saw this new tee from DC Shoes. It features a bunch of sprocket designs laid out on the front of the tee. I was surprised to see a very familiar sprocket on there, the middle one in the right column. That’s the “Copenhagen” sprocket from Simple Bikes. Well known to me [...]
